    Lance Lynn has a dry delivery and a wry smile, so it seems that everything he says is going to be sarcastic. But Lynn seemed entirely earnest the other evening in summing up what has ailed his St. Louis Cardinals in these first couple of weeks.

    "We've got to pitch better, we've got to score runs and we have to play defense," Lynn said. "If we start doing that, we'll be fine."

    You can't argue with that logic. What got the Cardinals off to their worst start in six years hasn't been particularly complex, but it has been compound. Lapses in the field, poor pitching and anemic hitting have combined to produce three lost series and a 3-6 record.

    Many prognosticators pegged the Cardinals as a mediocre team, but they didn't hint at underperformance at this level.
