    Hopefully he can stick around and be a serviceable guy.

      he's going to do more than just stick around... he will be a regular in the cards outfield for many years to come.. he's already the fastest guy on the cards roster with a great arm.. good fielding.. and power bat

      I wish we bring Skip Schumacher back up though...

      next year.. it's time for the Cards to go young

        Still needs to cut back on the K's though, if he can do that and maintain the power he showed in the minors then he should be in good shape, gotta give him time though.

          Great to see Ankiel make it back. Hopefully he can cut down on the strikeouts and really be a great hitter.

            Your parents and his parents are close?

            You do know that his parents are divorced and his father just spent 6 years in prison for his role in a Bahamian drug trafficking ring.

                They need to find room for Brendan Ryan as well.

                    Alright, he officially passes Josh Hamilton as best story of the year, IMO.

                      If this doesn't inspire the Cardinals to come back and win the division...I don't know what could.

                          The local sports radio guys were saying great things about this guy. They said he could be just like Babe Ruth if he stays productive.

                            You just know that there are at least a dozen different screenplays in the works right now.

                              Is Encarnacion done in St. Louis now that Ankiel looks like he's going to be staying with the big club for good? He's been sitting these last few games. Maybe even a waiver trade?

                                I wouldn't be surprised to see him go at the end of the season. However, I don't think he is going anywhere before then. He has been one of our most consistent hitters this season, and the depth in the outfield is not that deep.

                                Who knows, but I would think that if the Cards were going to make a run at the playoffs, they would need Juan.
