"We just found out this evening," Johnny Lee said. "He was dropped from the 40-man, which meant that he had to clear waivers before he could go back to the minors.
...
"It’s going to be a new start for him, which is good. St. Louis is a big-market team that is going to look to the free agent market a lot. This backs up their minor league guys a lot. There’s kind of a clog in the Cardinals’ middle infield right now."

More here and in comments. Organization ftw.

This could be a new life for him

errrr… playing in Triple A behind a second baseman who just hit 36 (!!!!!) bombs in the major leagues last year.

Seriously, if the Hoff isn’t going to unseat Skip, I don’t really see him contending for playing time with Hill. Unless, of course, the idea is to trade Hill whilst his value’s highest, which strikes me as a damn good idea…
