La Russa Skeptical About Mounds At Coors FieldCardinals manager Tony La Russa believes that there is a discrepancy between the visitor's bullpen mound and the main mound at Coors Field. La Russa asked for an umpires' review of the mounds following Friday's loss and had an animated exchange with Colorado's grounds crew Saturday. St. Louis pitcher Chris Carpenter complained to La Russa and pitching coach Dave Duncan after the first inning Friday, claiming that the main mound was steeper than the one on which he had warmed. "When a pitcher like him says something about it, what are you supposed to do, forget about it?" Duncan told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. The crew measured the mounds on Friday and found no difference in height.

There isn't currently any dialogue between the two parties, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Holliday is represented by agent Scott Boras, who has undoubtedly seen his client's market increase since the Athletics dealt him to the Cardinals in late July. "I won't put any restrictions on the Cardinals just as I wouldn't expect them to put any restrictions on Matt," Boras said. "It's a quality place to play, a good city. There are a lot of things that players look at when they determine what they'll do with free agency. You do an effective job of information-taking, evaluate and go from there."
