Tony LaRussa Takes Issue With Jack Clark's Comments; At Third, Tyler Greene Becoming Best Option; David Freese Expects To Return By Spring; Ect...

Cardinals manager Tony La Russa took exception on Friday to comments made by former Cardinal Jack Clark on a local radio station. Clark called the 2010 Cardinals "quitters," a characterization that clearly rubbed La Russa the wrong way.
Cardinals manager Tony La Russa pointedly stated that All-Star Jack Clark should have chosen better words in his criticism than to call this year's club a group of "quitters". The manager said a former player should know how much that word "cuts."
The Cardinals' late-season collapse and three consecutive losses to the Cubs clearly put retired first baseman Jack Clark in a grumpy mood. Speaking on 101 ESPN radio before Thursday's Padres-Cardinals game, the big fella ripped the Cardinals for their lethargic play.
