Wilson will have surgery

Preston Wilson will have surgery on his knee - he's been benched since the first week in May. Evidently, he tweaked it in Spring Training but said he played through it because he didn't think he would make the team had he not been on the field.

Not much of a loss here - I've never been a big fan of Wilson.

In other news, Chris Carpenter threw the ball today in his first step to come back from surgery. Mark Mulder also took the mound at Busch stadium today and is making some progress.

The Cards are playing well enough to stay in second place in a very weak, soap opera-ish division (yes, we're laughing at you Lou and Zambrano). It's not out of the question for us to pull this thing off - especially if we can hold on close to the Brew Crew and then get Mulder/Carp back.
