Scott Spiezio released by St Louis
Once again, we have another player involved in off field antics resulting in probably the end of his career. Details of this on the Cards website. At least maybe this opens a spot for Brendan Ryan on the roster. Glad I got my Spiezio bat signed in January.

Re: Scott Spiezio released by St Louis
I was thinking the same thing. This is really sad, but the team did the right thing. Stories published recently about Scott suggested his teammates worried he might end up like Josh Hancock. Their concern and intervention got him into rehab, but apparently it didn't take. I hope he can straighten himself out.

Re: Scott Spiezio released by St Louis
What a bummer. I hope he can find the help that he needs and get back into the game. Game 6, bottom of 7th inning of the 2002 World Series is forever burned into my mind.

Re: Scott Spiezio released by St Louis
He just lives that kind of lifestyle - he's a rocker....
I had a feeling that something would happen this season with him anyway - I'm just glad that he was not a big part of the team and this happened during a pennant run ( )...
Anyway, I wish him well - we all have our vices.

Re: Scott Spiezio released by St Louis
Just read today that Atlanta signed Spiezio. He will be reporting here to AAA Richmond.

Re: Scott Spiezio released by St Louis
Good to hear it. Scott is a heck of a player - and if he can turn it around in AAA, he will be an asset in the stretch for someone.
Everyone has a vice (or two)...and his not playing somewhere could have been his demise. Hopefully, he realizes how lucky he is to be with ANY team. I would still take him back in a heartbeat. He is a good fit in STL.
