Cardinals On Move Series

Baseball Betting Lines

Sonnanstine has spent his entire five-year career with the Tampa Bay Rays and has made 80 starts, but has been used primarily as a reliever for the past two seasons. Overall, the 28-year-old southpaw is 28-31 with a 5.26 earned run average and one save.

 

In 2011 Sonnanstine made 15 appearances -- four starts -- with the Rays and posted an 0-2 record with a 5.55 ERA.

 

Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - With Prince Fielder no closer to finding a home and no other news in sight, Major League Baseball appears to be officially closed for business until 2012. So, of course, there is no better time than now to reflect on the top stories of the past year. Without further ado and in no particular order, here are the top stories from the past year:

 

If you told fans in St. Louis back in the beginning of August that their team would be the ones left standing at the end of the season, they'd probably say you were nuts. The Cards found themselves 10 1/2 games out of a playoff spot in late August only to go 23-8 down the stretch and secured the wild card spot on the final day of the regular season.

 

After falling behind 3-2 in that set, the Cards were down to their last strike twice in Game 6, but rallied for an extra-inning win to force a seventh game. The Cardinals didn't need any late-inning heroics in that one, though, as series MVP David Freese's two-run double in the first inning set the stage for the team's second title in six years.

 

The 67-year-old skipper goes out as the third winningest manager in major league history with 2,728 victories for the White Sox (1979-1986), Athletics (1986-1995) and Cardinals (1996-present). Only Connie Mack has managed more games than the 5,097 La Russa has skippered.

 

PUJOLS TAKES THE MONEY AND RUNS TO ANAHEIM

 

The Angels had been lurking all along in the process, but most assumed that it was a two-team race between the Miami Marlins and Cardinals. Even more felt it was a fait accompli that he would return to St. Louis when Miami refused to give him a no-trade clause through the first five years.
