Mulder Rehab
The Cardinals get some good news on Mark Mulder:
Mulder, making his second start on a medical rehabilitation program as he continues his recovery from shoulder surgery, pitched six scoreless innings for Class AA Springfield against Tulsa. In throwing 76 pitches, Mulder walked three, allowed three hits and fanned only one. According to stadium radar readings, Mulder often was between 87 and 90 mph.
Mulder told the Springfield News-Leader that he was pleased with his location, "especially with my changeup and cutter."
"They were hacking," he said. "I wasn't exactly missing many barrels (of the bat)."
Right now the Cardinals have three starters doing well. A healthy Mulder could give them a fourth. The trick is staying in the race until Mark is ready to return.

Mulder hasn't been healthy for almost 3 yrs now - pretty hard to know what to expect even if his shoulder is OK.
