Under scrutiny, bats rise to occasion vs. Cubs

ST. LOUIS -- After detailing the nine transactions the Cardinals made before opening a seven-game homestand, president of baseball operations John Mozeliak made the sort of statement meant to put a team on notice: More moves, he warned, are coming.

Now that the bullpen overhaul is already underway, the Cardinals' attention will be heavily focused on the position player side as they seek to knead this roster into one that sets the organization up to rebound next season. With evaluations underway and differing directions being discussed, the Cardinals' offense flaunted some depth in a 5-2 win over the Cubs at Busch Stadium on Friday.
