La Russa: I'll find enough at-bats for Jon Jay

Manager Tony La Russa said on his radio show Sunday morning that he thinks he'll be able to find enough at-bats for Jon Jay even after Ryan Ludwick returns from the DL.

Jay has the National League's longest active hit streak at 10 games and is batting .385 with three homers over 65 at-bats for the Redbirds thus far. He's been primarily filling in for the injured Ludwick in right field, but he's capable of playing all three outfield spots. La Russa thinks that Jay could see enough at-bats spelling Ludwick once or twice per week and Colby Rasmus once per week. That's enough to make him a viable NL-only play as long as he keeps hitting.
