2018 St Louis Cardinals thread

Crap, I somehow missed this.

He was a good man, a class act. 

I would rather watch Barry schuck BBQ sauce than watch the cardinals.  What a sad, lackadaisical team.  Of course the owners carry the big blame . This roster is average. 

This is basically last year's mediocre team with some minor furniture moving, the end result was fairly obvious

Nice win for Birds on Dad's Day. Hoping for better series results, but such sloppy play first two games. Any win over scrubs is a good one and nice that cubs have been shut out 3 of the last 5 games. The kind of small victories that keep me going...Bader has all the skills to be a good player.

Michael Wacha will be sidelined with a left oblique strain.

That Fowler signing is sure paying off. 

The bad thing about all the injuries is if we miss the playoffs management will just write it off as due to injuries and ignore what a flawed team this is

There won't be any playoffs for this team.  Maybe if they were in a division with the Reds, Padres, and Sox. Injuries or not, they lack the talent of a playoff team .

Yep. Once again we have a team that is capable of finishing 5-10 games over .500, but that's pretty much their peak. 

I told a friend at work 2 weeks ago (I think they were either 7 or 8 games over .500 at the time) that they would be under .500 by the end of the month. I still firmly believe that. This team is garbage. And Mo is the reason. 

Mo is trash, its pretty clear IMO the real brains ended up in Houston and we got stuck with the untalented sycophant

also, anyone what to give us updates what a true ace tin brain Martinez is?

I've wanted to toss Mo off the Musial Bridge for several years now.

Just a bad team.  Fowler looks like a coed softball player that is forced to bat left handed.  If mabry can't see that he chops at every pitch whether the ball is in the dirt or over his head, the guy is blind and shouldn't be coaching.  

At the very least munos should have popped that guy in the mouth last night, to spark the team.  Instead, they just played grab ass out there and let some pudgy guy hit 2 juiced balls out of the park.  The first one was hit with three fingers, the second Norris grooved it . Probably just wanted to get in the clubhouse and eat a sandwich. 

Wonder which has-been mo will sign to lead the team to a fourth place finish.  I'm sure Mike Laga is available. 

Too bad Bernie doesn't write about the Salukis.

That's a good article by Bernie...and right on the money. Don't expect anything similar from Heff.
