CHICAGO -- Mike Matheny was talking about how he guides his own team as the season moves into late summer.But the St. Louis Cardinals manager might have also be offering free advice to the National League Central-leading Chicago Cubs as they navigate uncharted waters as a potential World Series favorite.We control what we control and thats how we play, Matheny said this week as his Cardinals played the Cubs in a weekend Wrigley Field series.You cant back off in this game.

Holliday was hit on the hand by a Mike Montgomery pitch in the 10th inning and was scheduled to see a hand specialist in Chicago on Friday.St. Louis immediately placed Holliday on the 15-day disabled list but had not yet made a corresponding roster move Friday.Unfortunately thats just part of the game and that happens pretty often, Matheny said. You dont dwell on it. Youre not happy about losing any of our guys but you dont let it carry into the next game.The Cubs had no updates on recent developments involving two relief pitchers and an AWOL utility player.Right-hander Hector Rondon continued to rest a sore triceps while reliever Pedro Strop was scheduled to undergo knee surgery after suffering a torn meniscus Wednesday.I know that Im not out for the season and Im going to be back (next) month, he said.Infielder Tommy La Stella, meanwhile, remained on the temporarily inactive list and had still not reported after he was assigned to Triple-A Iowa two weeks ago.Hendricks seeks his first career win over the Cardinals on Saturday.

NEW YORK -- With a pair of National League West also-rans visiting Citi Field, this was supposed to be a week in which the New York Mets made up ground in the National League wild card race. But now the San Diego Padres can finish what the Arizona Diamondbacks started and force the Mets into wait-til-next-year mode once again.The reeling Mets attempt to remain on the periphery of the playoff race beginning Friday when the Padres visit Citi Field for the opener of a three-game series.The Diamondbacks, who are in last place in the NL West, completed a three-game sweep of the Mets on Thursday with a 9-0 rout. The Padres, who are in fourth place in the NL West, fell to the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-0 in the rubber game of a three-game series in Pittsburgh.The Mets were outscored 17-5 and gave up 13 stolen bases -- the most in franchise history during a three-game series -- in being swept by Arizona. New York fell to 57-57 and three games behind the idle Miami Marlins in the race for the NLs second wild card.The Mets, who are .500 for the first time since April 20, are 10-19 in their last 29 games, a stretch in which they have not won back-to-back games.Sometimes in this game, you just get beat, Mets utilityman Kelly Johnson said. Sometimes youre just not lucky. You need a little bit of both -- getting the job done, a little bit of luck, a little bit of everything sometimes. And right now were just kind of sliding and not getting much of (anything).Johnson and his teammates got an earfull Thursday afternoon from manager Terry Collins, who followed up a fiery press conference in which he appeared to question his players effort by closing the locker room for a meeting that lasted nearly 20 minutes.ddddddddddddI know one thing: Theres got to be a passion to come and play, theres got to be a sense of this is what I do for a living -- the people that pay to see me play are going to see my best effort, Collins said. Youre going to get beat, and youre going to get beat bad sometimes. But you need to pick yourself up and move on. Thats what baseball players do.The speedy Padres, who rank third in the major leagues with 99 stolen bases, present a challenge for the Mets, whose catchers have thrown out only 30 of 132 opposing baserunners.The Padres (49-65) have stolen four bases in a game three times in their last 10 contests. On Wednesday, outfielder Travis Jankowski stole home for the second time this month.We run the bases with a ton of aggression, Padres manager Andy Green said We steal a lot of bases -- not always home -- but we take whats there for us.Mets right-hander Logan Verrett (3-7, 4.66 ERA) is scheduled to oppose Padres right-hander Paul Clemens (1-2, 4.61) on Friday. Verrett gave up two runs (one earned) in two innings of relief in his lone career appearance against San Diego on May 5. Clemens faces New York for the first time.
