EDWARD MUJICA RUMORS
Cardinals continue bullpen overhaul: Mitchell Boggs optioned, Carlos Martinez called up
After yesterday's outing in which he gave up two walks without retiring a batter, the Cardinals had seen enough of Mitchell Boggs and demoted him to AAA to sort out his issues.
To take his place, the Cardinals called up another one of their flame throwing prospects, Carlos Martinez, from AA Springfield. Martinez, who had the start of his season delayed by visa issues, has...
Mujica taking ownership of the ninth inning
St. Louis Edward Mujica says it happened in Philadelphia on April 18.
There the Cardinals reliever who had usually stuck to the seventh inning was, out on the mound in the ninth. Things weren't going very well.

St. Louis Cardinals: Edward Mujica picks up save in Cardinals 4-3 win over Phillies

Cards players ready to watch, root during WBC
JUPITER, Fla. - Edward Mujica proudly wore his Team Venezuela cap Thursday. But it was also a weird feeling.
He was wearing it in the Cardinals clubhouse and not in Puerto Rico where the rest of his fellow countrymen were playing in the first round of the World Baseball Classic.
