PHOENIX (AP) — The St. Louis Cardinals are enjoying a great August thanks to a clubhouse full of veteran superstars. The quintet of Albert Pujols, Yadier Molina, Adam Wainwright, Paul Goldschmidt and Nolan Arenado have a combined 40 All-Star appearances and are still delivering clutch moments. The Cardinals have surged in the NL Central with a 16-3 record so far in August. Goldschmidt is having an MVP-caliber season. He entered Monday night’s game at Chicago batting .337 with 34 doubles, 31 homers and 100 RBIs.
