available cardinals clubs days few ready word
He was ready to come up to Triple-A, and right now we really didn't have anything for him. We put the word out that he was available a few days ago, and a few clubs responded. The Cardinals were the most persistent.
best days early judge last miss three
He's very close. He's the best judge of that. The last thing I want to do is have him go out three days too early and have a setback and miss two months.
