Cardinals want Craig Wilson to replace Pujols
The Dirt:
St. Louis has contacted the Pirates to inquire about the availability of right fielder/first baseman Craig Wilson. The Cardinals need help at first, with Albert Pujols out for several weeks because of an oblique injury. Wilson, who can declare free agency after this season, is known to be available.
The Spin: A perfect situation for all involved: Pittsburgh gets to unload a free agent, St. Louis gets temporary help, and Wilson gets to not have to play for the awful Pirates any more.
