At Baseball Daily Digest, I take a look at the powerhouse St. Louis Cardinals, who are eerily similar to the powerhouse Cardinals team of 2005.

While teams look at the young talent on the Los Angeles Dodgers’ roster (Kershaw, Billingsley, Kemp), the firepower in Philadelphia (Utley, Howard, Werth, Ibanez), and the pitching in San Francisco (Lincecum, Cain, Wilson), be sure not to overlook the St. Louis Cardinals.

    The Cardinals are better this year. Giving Carpenter the Cy Young is a tough call at this point – I think Wainwright would get the votes at this point. And that’s nothing close to what they had in 2005 – two aces!

    Also, Holliday has been a hotter hitter in the second half than Rolen was. It’s making a huge difference.
