Cardinals Sign Mike MacDougal

By Ben Nicholson-Smith | July 8, 2010 at 7:47am CDT

The Cardinals, who have blown two consecutive late-inning leads, signed reliever Mike MacDougal, according to Brian Walton of FOXSportsMidwest.com. The Cardinals are MacDougal's third organization of the year. The Marlins signed him in February and released him a month later. He then signed with the Nationals and pitched in the minors before opting out of his deal last week.

In 22 minor league innings this year, the 33-year-old right-hander has allowed 26 hits and 13 walks, striking out 13 for a 5.32 ERA. MacDougal, who represented the Royals in the 2003 All-Star game, pitched for the White Sox and Nationals last year.

    The All-Star break can’t come soon enough for a Cardinals team that’s now adding a scuffling bullpen to their growing list of issues in 2010. MacDougal is good for depth, but he needs to improve if he’s going to help this Cardinal team.

    Nice pickup. I hear he’s been working on his delivery with pitching coach Elaine Benes.

    Considering the 9th inning last night was handled by a minor league pitcher (Evan MacLane) who showed up in the 5th inning, MacDougal certainly could get called up at some point if he holds his own in AAA.

    Interesting to see how Dave “pitch to contact” Duncan would deal with Mike “throw the ball as hard as you can, who cares where it goes” MacDougal.

    A real-life Nuke LaLoosh if there was one. Good fastball, but God knows where the hell it will end up.

    I think he’s been a heavy ground ball pitcher so Duncan should love him. Even though his minor league numbers are lousy so far, I’m surprised he hasn’t pitched in the majors yet this season.

    Day one, Macdougal meets Dave Duncan.

    Duncan: THIS is what we call the “strike zone.”
    Macdougal: The what?

      If this works, there might still be hope for Daniel Cabrera.
