OT: OT: Lets Go Cardinals! (All Baseball Talk Here) Part 2

[Eldon Reid]

Boy after C.B. had some fun after rain delay.

Cards 4 hits 1 run against worst team.

Looking like another good season Mo. At least Army tells it like it is.

it looked like it was going to be the case in slow motion

Yup. Then when the trainer was supporting Contreras' arm when he walked off the field, it pretty much confirmed it was broke.

 

[Bobby Orrtuzzo]

Time to see what Herrera can do full time.

I wonder if Contreras can play 1B? Maybe he’s Goldys replacement next year?

 

[BadgersandBlues]

It was only a matter of time before a catcher got injured, they're all staying way too close to the plate these days trying to frame bad pitches as strikes.

 

[WeWantTacos]

The Cardinals are so bad the highlight on their homepage is a triple hit by Victor Scott II... in Memphis. And even they were losing 8-1 when he hit it.

 

[SirPaste]

It’s beyond time to blow everything up, it’s just such a dysfunctional mess

 

[tfriede2]

Could it be a wake up call for management that, yes, your team really does suck?

 

[Celtic Note]

Could it be a wake up call for management that, yes, your team really does suck?

Would they even acknowledge that?

 

[Mike Liut]

They’ll acknowledge it when they see 25,000 in the stands

It's going to happen. A entire rebuild needs to occur. The Blues are garbage yet are miles ahead of where the Cardinals are. Very sad stuff.

 

[TheDizee]

Floating around .500 isn't quite the 100 loss season you were predicting though

on a pace for 62.3 wins and 99.7 loses

I think Hence and Hjerpe are going to be good. They need to pick a top of the rotation starter at #7 this draft and will have an another top 7 pick next year. Things can turn around quickly.

Cool, I never mentioned anything about how the team would finish, just pointed out that you clearly didn't expect a ~.500 start contrary to the implication of your statement of "who would have thought"

give them time. once they dump goldy and arenado, then the real pain comes.

You were also wrong that this team needed to move Arenado and Goldschmidt to fall off a cliff.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

The extent to which I pay attention to baseball is usually a few Spring Training games out here, which are super fun. Anyone visiting the Phoenix area during the spring has many opportunities to take in some Cactus League Spring Training games. Camelback Ranch is the go-to spot. Dodgers-White Sox. The Ranch is fantastic, but not cheap like Surprise Stadium where the Rangers and Royals train.

As far as the Cardinals are concerned , I don’t know who the players are, except for a few. Checking box scores is depressing cuz….Cardinals. An historically bad offense. Worst ever Cards’ offense? Prolly not. But……..

I’ll skip the box scores.

 

[542365]

Cards’ City Connect jerseys are alright. I just wish they would’ve taken more of a risk. They’re supposed to be wild and drastically different, but they’re just Spring Training jerseys with “The Lou” on the chest with the same birds on the bat and same font as their cream colored jersey. They look nice. It’s better than taking a huge gamble and making something disastrous, but I think they could’ve pushed the envelope a little more.

 

[PanniniClaus]

Herrera will need new nuts.

 

[Bobby Orrtuzzo]

11-3 in their last 14. As much as we bitch about this team…guess we should recognize when they play well too

Don't wanna

 

[bleedblue1223]

Pitching has been good, need the offense to get it figured out. If we had old Goldy and Arenado, we'd be pretty good right now.

 

[BadgersandBlues]

Jojo Romero is having the best year I've ever seen a reliever have. Dude is lights out.

 

[Bluesnatic27]

The fact the pitching has been the strength of this team is befuddling.

But the offense seems to have figured out how to take at-bats because I've been having fun again. The way they took Montas's pitch count to 80 in 4th was something to see.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

What's up with Winn? He can hit, but 8 errors already!! Second most for all shortstops, so far.
