Rehabbing St. Louis Cardinals third baseman, Jhonny Peralta, is set to return from the disabled list as early as Friday. At least this has been the threatened rhetoric from the Cardinals organization. I know I’m not alone in this so let me just say that activating him and demoting Magneuris Sierra would be a gross disservice to Cardinals Nation.
I wrote recently that the time has come to bid Peralta farewell. After Sierra’s performance in the final game of the two-game sweep suffered at the hands of the Red Sox, I continue to believe that Peralta should be released.
