NL Central Notes: Pendleton, Rodriguez, Pujols, Silva

By Steve Adams | March 27, 2011 at 8:14pm CDT

Let's take a look at what's happening around the NL Central on this fine Sunday afternoon…

  • MLB.com's Brian McTaggart reports that the Astros tried to work out a trade for right-hander Lance Pendleton before the Rule 5 Draft pick was returned to the Yankees earlier today. The two sides just couldn't find a match.
  • Pirates GM Neal Huntington told Rob Biertempfel of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review that Rule 5 pick Josh Rodriguez has made the team (Twitter link).
  • Albert Pujols is at peace with his current contract situation and has no hard feelings toward the Cardinals after failing to work out an extension, writes Joe Strauss of the St. Louis Post Dispatch. Pujols said he still hopes something can be worked out following the season.
  • Strauss also tweets that the Cardinals aren't interested in the recently released Carlos Silva.
  • Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel tweets that Brewers infielder Luis Cruz cleared waivers and will be assigned to Triple-A.
  • MLB.com's Brian McTaggart opines that the addition of Joe Inglett to the Astros means Jason Bourgeois will make the team and helps Tommy Manzella's chances to start at shortstop (Twitter link).

    Water is wet.
    The Pirates will pick in the top five of the 2012 draft.
    The Cards aren’t interested in Carlos Silva.
    The Wire was a great show.

    All obvious eh?

    Nobody will want Silva. He is not a winner, but a whiner.

    Mets should pick up Silva. Sure he has minimal upside, but considering how weak their staff is and the fact they only have to pay the league minimum they might as well take a shot.

    I should probably tweet that I’m not interested in Carlos Silva either. I need some re-tiling done in my upstairs bathroom, but I don’t think he’s the right guy for the job.

    Actually, I kinda sorta would like to add Silva to the Cardinals…He could be our DH (designated hitter) when we fight the Brewers now that they’ve picked up the classless sneak attacker Nyjer Morgan. Of course, in the case of the Cincinnatis, he’d have to be our DK (designated kicker) when their girly-girl Quetto joins the battle!

      Yeah, they’d fit in well with bean ball Carpenter and “Mr. Conspiracy Theory” Larussa lol

    “No hard feelings. If the Cardinals won’t give me the money that could essentially buy Europe, some other team will,” Pujols said Monday. “and it’ll feel good to have more money than the GDP’s of 160 countries worldwide, no matter who signs over the checks.”
