Cardinals manager Tony LaRussa would prefer not to have to turn
Cardinals manager Tony LaRussa would prefer not to have to turn to youngsters Chris Perez or Jason Motte to close out games this season, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. 'They're still a ways away from being a complete answer. The way they can get there is to be put in a situation where they can learn, they can grow, without having the stress of it being all up to them to get that last out, and nothing to protect them,' LaRussa said.The Cardinals lost out on Brian Fuentes to the Angels, despite offering what was said to be the same amount of money, so LaRussa may have no choice but to use Perez or Motte, at least initially.
