If So Taguchi makes the Cardinals’ opening day lineup, Monday’s performance may be a contributing factor. Taguchi went 4-for-4 yesterday as the Cardinals erased a 4-0 deficit to beat the Mets. He’s hitting .354 this spring and is the first Cardinal to get four hits in one game this spring. After giving up four runs in two innings, starter Jeff Suppan finished with three innings of scoreless pitching…. If this is a preview of things to come, the Royals will be in for a bumpy start. They lost to the White Sox 14-3 in Tucson on Monday afternoon. The two teams will square off on opening day next Monday. The White Sox touched up the Royals with three runs in the first inning.
