Two in a row

For only the third time this year, the Cardinals won back to back games!! The bats came alive with 13 hits and the arms did a good job of calming any rallies that the Rockies tried. This could be one of the toughest weeks (schedule wise) coming up. The good news is that they finish with a fairly easy schedule while the Cubs and Brewers both have brutal schedules in the next few weeks. The Brewers have been playing decent ball, but they've also caught teams at the right time or teams that just aren't that good. This next month will show us if they are for real. So the last few weeks of May will be key for the Cards to make their move back towards the top.
Tony will have a interesting decision to make when Juan comes back. Ryan Ludwick is showing so far that he belongs in the bigs. Skip is the best defensive OF we have on the team. And Tony loves his veteran boys in So and P Dub. So who does he move to activate Encarnacion? Personally I say cut either So or Wilson and keep the young guys up. However, I'm sure that either Ludwick or Skip will be sent down as long as they have options.
