I feel like whining - would someone please post the lineups so we can get started on that?

Lilly against the Cards: 4-2, 3.06 ERA.

Ankiel: 3-12 with a HR and a 2B.
Glaus: 1-14 with 6 K's.
Izturis: 3-9 with a 2B.
Kennedy: 4-14 with a home run, a double, and three walks.
Lopez: 2-11 with 2 home runs.
Ludwick: 2-12 with 2 doubles.
Miles: 1-6.
Molina: 4-18 with a home run.
Pujols: 8-21 with 2 home runs and 2 doubles.
Schumaker: 0-7.

word is Ankiel is working out with trainers watching, TLR has 2 lineups in his hand, 1 with ankiel, the other without. when they come to a conclusion on if he can play or not, Bernie will then post them up and I'll relay it here

Looper against the Cubs: 3-4, 2.39 ERA (1.67 ERA in 3 starts in 2007, 2.57 ERA in 1 start in 2008)

DeRosa: 1-14.
Edmonds: 0-4.
Fontenot: 0-7.
Fukudome: 1-3 with a HR.
Johnson: 0-3.
Lee: 5-18 with a 2B and a HR.
Ramirez: 4-20.
Soriano: 1-8.
Soto: 3-5 with a HR and a double.
Theriot: 4-14.

It'd be nice for Glaus to finally get a hit against the Cubs.

Please let Ankiel be available. I really don't want to see Lopez in LF again (or on the 25 man roster for that matter).

Maybe he'll pop his Cardinal Cherry this series and go on a tear for all 3 games

This is the first time I have had a really, really bad feeling about a Cards/Cubs series in a very long time. Looper starting certainly is not helping things. That said, Cards win 17-1.
