Tuesday, July 28, 2009
News: Ankiel will be sidelined at least through Wednesday night because of a strained groin muscle, the St. Louis Post Dispatch reports.
Analysis: Ankiel, who sustained the injury on one of his swings during Monday night's game, had been 13 for his last 29, so the timing here is less than ideal for him. On the plus side, the Cards got Colby Rasmus back Tuesday.
Monday, July 13, 2009
News: Ankiel admitted Sunday that his shoulder is still not right, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Analysis: He suffered the injury in a collision on May 4, but said it still feels "weak." He's hitting just .215 overall and .071 in July. He'll enjoy the much-needed break, but it's possible his break will be of the 15-day variety.
