SEATTLE — Although the Cardinals team Mike Leake was supposed to be a leading member of seemed to be headed in the opposite bearing, there are some similarities that he cannot help but notice between then and the direction his compass appears to be pointing now as a starter for the Seattle Mariners.
He might be pitching for them to not be pitching much longer for them.
“I still feel like I can play beyond the career I was given by St. Louis’ (contract), and I’m going to treat it that way,” Leake said this week at T-Mobile Park.
