Cards still interested in Chien-Ming Wang

By On January 19, 2010 · 1 Comment · In Uncategorized

According to Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, the Cardinals are in the process of “reviewing the medical information on Chien-Ming Wang,” a potential rotation option pitching coach Dave Duncan described as “intriguing” in mid-December. If the interest is real, St. Louis would be a nice landing spot for the rehabilitating right-hander, as Mitchell Boggs, a less than impressive name in comparison, is currently penciled in as the team’s 5th starter. In addition, Kyle Lohse and Brad Penny are not exactly locks for a full season’s worth of work, therefore, having a relatively inexpensive, high-upside arm like Wang’s could help the Cardinals construct ample rotation depth for 2010.

Wang has garnered a lot of interest but is not expected to throw off a mound until mid-February at the earliest.

    That’s a terrible idea. Didn’t they see what happened the last time Wang ran the bases?
