I know it's just Spring Training, but, this VerHagen dude is really good. Nasty nasty breaking pitches.

If the team is content with just abusing a weak division to barely squeak into the playoffs and lose in the first round anyway, might as well make it fun. In this circumstance I’m happy to see Albert back with the Cards, but I sure would’ve preferred a starting pitching upgrade or two though.
I’m glad they’re bringing Pujols back. I’m sure the DH being an option now helps, and while he seems mostly washed, he can still hit LHP and at least can be another bat off the bench. I don’t get sentimental about baseball the way a lot of people (particularly in STL) do, but Pujols finishing his career with the birds on the bat feels right.

Why is the baseball thread locked?
Anyways, I’m glad to see Albert finish here, but to me it’s a such a nostalgia play to appease the fan base after not doing much in FA that it seems very meh to me.
Maybe he’ll prove me wrong and come out and do well.

I booed Pujos the very first time he entered the field wearing an Angel's jersey. Spring training in Tempe, AZ.
I made him a sign and everything.
The people in front of me were wearing Cardinals clothes as well. They looked back at me and told me I couldn't boo Albert Pujos. I said, "Oh yeah? Watch me."

We are averaging 29 runs a game with Pujols in the lineup
O'Neill with the first RBI and the first home run of the 2022 season.
Only 9 runs in the opener, the Pujols magic must be running out.We are averaging 29 runs a game with Pujols in the lineup

Cards have a really soft April schedule. Mets and Brewers are the only good teams on the calendar. I'd be disappointed if the Cards ended with a record worse than like 14-8. May is the exact opposite. Two against the Royals and three against the Orioles are the only games in the entire month against non-playoff teams.
Eh, I'm not too worried about Matz. Yeah he had a bad game. But there's a ton of games in baseball. He could easily come in next game and throw a great game.

Arenado is freakishly good! Followed right up by Albert!!
Great hitting by the 3-4-5 guys there. Arenado is hungry this year after a slightly disappointing season last year (his words).

And our starting pitching hands it right back. It’s unacceptable that Mo didn’t address this obvious area of weakness. Just so satisfied with mediocrity. It’s infuriating. Army needs to be GM of the Cards.
The fact that O'Neill still doesn't have a contract for this year should explain everything about the Cards Ownership and Management group, especially when STL is a Baseball city to it's core. Stillman and Army are far and away the best Ownership/Management group in STLm
