ST. Joe Thuney Jersey . LOUIS -- Cardinals ace Adam Wainwright says his elbow injury is not
serious. He could miss a start to allow the tendinitis to calm down.
"Im OK, I really am," Wainwright said Friday. "I know that in this
business when the word elbow gets thrown around people think the worst,
but in actuality and in all honest to goodness truth, the only reason we
did an MRI at all was to see how to treat it better, to see exactly
which spot was dinged up."
General manager John Mozeliak said the team would have a better idea of
its next move after Wainwright plays catch on Saturday. The right-hander
was a 19-game winner last year and won 20 games in 2010.
"I think the best way to think about this now is its a long season and
certainly you dont want to put the season in jeopardy for one start,"
Mozeliak said. "I certainly know where were leaning, but Id like to see
how he responds tomorrow."
Wainwright is tied for the National League lead in wins at 9-3 with a
2.15 ERA. He had an injection on Wednesday after an MRI exam pinpointed
the trouble area in the back of his elbow.
"If I have to miss a start once every three years without going on the
DL, I think thats an OK thing," Wainwright said. "I could pitch through
this, theres no doubt, without seeing doctors, without getting a shot.
Thats not the smart play, lets get this treated, lets get this knocked
out."
Wainwright, who missed the 2011 season after undergoing elbow
reconstruction surgery, said the sole reason for the MRI was to aid in
rehab efforts. Wainwright sought to calm fans, saying the elbow was fine
and the tendon was "thick as an oak tree and strong as can be."
Both the team and pitcher kept open the possibility Wainwright could
stay on his turn and pitch Monday against the Mets, but all agreed a
little rest would be beneficial.
Wainwright was second in the NL with 100 1-3 innings. He said the elbow
began bothering him the last two starts.

BARCELONA, Spain -- Villarreal scored in each half to beat Mallorca 2-0
on Tuesday for its first victory of the Spanish league season.
Giuseppe Rossi scored Villarreals opener at El Madrigal stadium when he
slotted under goalkeeper Dudu Aouate in the eighth minute.
Mallorca struggled to finish off its scoring opportunities, and Nilmar
added Villarreals second in the 52nd when he received Borja Valeros
perfectly placed pass, rounded Aouate in one touch and rolled the ball
home.
Previously, Villarreal had only earned one point from a possible nine
and been held scoreless in three of its last four games, including its
loss to Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
"While it is true that sometimes a victory can help a team change and
find its winning form, this win was just one step," Villarreal coach
Juan Carlos Garrido said. "It was an important win, but we need to
continue growing and improving with many more games ahead."
Mallorca has lost three straight games and only scored one goal this
season. That goal was netted by now Villarreal midfielder Jonathan de
Guzman, who faced his old team for the first time since transferring to
the "Yellow Submarine" barely three weeks ago.

Madrid tries to rebound from its loss at Levante when it visits the

goalkeeping by Sevillas Javi Varas keeping the hosts from scoring. Steve Grogan Patriots Jersey.
After Sevilla responded through the pace of Spain winger Jesus Navas,
Osasuna regained control of the game toward the end. But Varas stepped
up again in the 64th to block Juan "Nino" Martinezs shot from inside in
the area, and Belgian forward Roland Lamah sent his volley into the side
netting in the 88th.
"We have got two draws away from home at grounds that are not at all
easy ones," said coach Marcelino Garcia, whose Sevilla is one point
behind league leaders Valencia and Real Betis. "Eight points is a good
haul and at this pace we will achieve our objectives."
Elsewhere, right back Daniel Estradas second-half goal earned Real
Sociedad its second victory of the season.
After an evenly matched first half at Anoeta stadium, Estrada caught
Granada goalkeeper Roberto Fernandez slightly off his line in the 64th
with an excellent shot from outside the area.

defender shot over from point-blank range in the last minute of injury
