Adam Wainwright: "God Had Different Plans For Me This Year"

Ex-Cardinals Watch 8-11-09: Eddie Degerman Signs Deal; Mark Grudzielanek Released; Ben Julianel Retires; Bill Pulsipher & Juan Diaz POTW
Fernando Tatis (Mets):
Fernando Tatis smacks a double off the center-field wall, bringing across two runs in the fourth inning.
Mets Official Site
Jim Riggleman (Nationals MGR):
The Nationals have been a totally different team after the All-Star break. How has Jim Riggleman changed the attitude and approach of the ballclub?
-- Asher K., Birmingham, Ala.
I think it started to change after they made four errors in a July 24 loss to the Padres. Riggleman was upset and lectured his players after that game. From that point on, the Nationals played better baseball, winning 12 of their next 16 games. I've always believed that a little old-school yelling can't hurt once in a while.
Nationals Official Site
Jamie Moyer (Phillies):
The Phillies announced Monday afternoon that Martinez, who they signed to a prorated $2 million contract last month, will make his Phillies debut Wednesday night against the Cubs at Wrigley Field. Moyer, whose 40 wins since 2006 leads the Phillies, has been moved to the bullpen.

Bernard Gilkey (Retired):
Bernard Gilkey played his last game with the Arizona Diamondbacks more than nine years ago and yet, when the former Major League outfielder opens his mailbox these days, he still finds checks from the team.

Angels Official Site
Brett Wallace, Shane Peterson, & Clayton Mortensen (Athletics):
Less than two weeks ago, Brett Wallace got a taste of what it would be like to represent the St. Louis Cardinals in Busch Stadium when he started at third base in the XM Radio All-Star Futures Game. Little did he know that would be as close as he'd come to playing in front of Cardinals Nation full-time.
Athletics Official Site
The A's had their first shot at Brett Wallace about a year ago. They took a pass, though, electing to take Jemile Weeks with the No. 12 pick in the 2008 First-Year Player Draft instead.

Felipe Lopez (Brewers):
Felipe Lopez was eager to make a proper home debut for the Brewers. His achy right hamstring did not cooperate.

David Eckstein (Padres):
If all goes according to plan, the Padres will activate second baseman David Eckstein from the 15-day disabled list in the next few days.
Padres Official Site
Jack Wilson (Pirates):
While there's no telling whether the Pirates' middle-infield pair will remain together beyond next Friday, the two might be able to take the field together again as soon as Saturday.
Pirates Official Site
Ben Julianel (Rockies):
Triple-A Colorado Springs placed him on the 7-day disabled list with a left ankle sprain.
Charles Carter (Free Agent):
The Fort Worth Cats of the American Association released him.
Troy Cate (Blue Jays):
The Long Island Ducks today announced that Troy Cate has been signed by the Toronto Blue Jays organization and assigned to their Double-A affiliate, New Hampshire of the Eastern League. The starter became the Flock’s first seven-game winner on Wednesday, July 22 and was impressive down the stretch winning four straight with a 3.52 ERA over that span.
