There are a couple of players that should be released directly after this game or series. 

I’m thankful I have been driving all evening and have not watched a single AB, with exception of Ozuna running into an out as I was taking a ropey pis s in Iowa.

This has to be one of the most woefully pathetic playoff showings the Cardinals have ever thrown out there.  What a bunch of pretenders, this team has a long long way to go before being legitimate contenders.

I was actually shocked that they won the division and made the playoffs with the lack of talent on this team. They overachieved really. Finally caught up with them. Can't bitch about that season though - winning the division and the series with the Braves is great.

The Nationals have some seriously good pitching - would not be surprised if they won the World Series. Should be a great one with, I'm assuming, Houston.

Im really torn on this season.  On its surface it was a great success, getting to a LCS is always a good thing, but at the same time you cant help but feel the team is just so far from being a legitimate contender.  Our offense is laughable and it has so many holes I really just dont know how they fix it

Pitching is very good...good enough if they can just get some hitting.  They simply ran into a buzz saw in the Nationals pitching staff.  That team (Cards) goes collectively cold with disturbing frequency.  Carpenter's game falling off a cliff hurt a lot.  That, with his long term contract, really stings. How to fix it?  No idea.

Well based on the World Series guess I don’t feel too bad about getting run over

I noticed that Jose Martinez did not seem to participate in that team collective slump they slid into during the NLCS.  If they could add one more good hitter who could also be a catalyst/slump breaker, that might make quite a difference.

Even looks better than ever now. They were that team of destiny. Four road wins against the Stros in Houston, is impressive.

Home team went 0-7 in that series which is possibly the most bizarre thing Ive seen come out of a world series haha

I really dont think the team will do much of anything.  Despite the flaws the NLCS trip pretty much gave them the cover fire to stand pat

I really thought in the back of my head, that the Cards would have gone after Baumgardner. Arizona got him for 5 years 85 million. 30 years old, lefty. Not good.
