The Cardinals are coming fast

[Benzoo]

Well it took less than a week for the Cards to take over first place. It's not that the Reds played bad. The Cards played better. Sad thing is looking at the rosters of both teams the Cards have more holes they can fill than the Reds do. The Cards can easily upgrade at 3B,2B,SS,CF and RF as well as the bullpen. The Reds really can only improve with all three outfield spots and bullpen help. Both teams need a legitimate lead off hitter. At this point I give a slight advantage to the Cards.

Curious as to how you give the edge to the Cards when you just said they have more holes to fill than the Reds? Just curious, not saying I agree or disagree, just trying to understand your logic.

I'm just saying as well as they're (Cards) playing now and beating the better teams in the NL. Any upgrade would give them a better edge. Overall I like the Reds team make up better. But, Larussa has the magic touch and puts players in situations they can produce.
