Cardinals Scouting Nationals

Here's a nugget from MLB.com's Jim Molony:

The Cardinals had a scout watching the Nationals recently, though it is unclear which player(s) were being scouted -- perhaps Tim Redding or Odalis Perez, both available inexpensive options who have been pitching well lately.

You'll find both starters in our recent Trade Market post, and they do make sense for St. Louis.  However, Tony La Russa is primarily pushing for a bat to protect Albert Pujols.  Nationals shortstop Cristian Guzman wouldn't qualify, but he would be an improvement over Cesar Izturis and Brendan Ryan.
