The last 3 years everyone said the same thing.  All games count.  As usual they will be playing their asses off at the end of the year to make the wildcard.

Cubs just lost 2 of 3 to a bad Texas team. Are they done also ?

Surely this is an April fool's post. Not sure what will happen, but the central is a tough conference. It's April first people. Goldy has not even seen his locker at Busch forchrisakes...

March on triumphantly!

Having a ten game hole to crawl out of after April is something I would prefer to avoid. March games count.

Been saying all offseason the pitching wasn’t good enough. All I heard was how deep this pitching staff was. 

Just because you have 10 C+ pitchers doesn’t mean you have depth. It just means you have a lot of mediocrity. 

But they did nothing to address the staff and they will probably be playing in 8-6 games all year.

I'm not a big Carp fan. I think the guy is broken down goods. I know how good he is when he is hot. I also know how bad he is when he is not. Bunt the damn ball down 3rd. How a major league ball player cannot bunt a baseball, is beyond me,

 

While we are at it, release Fowler and get Tyler in the starting line up.

I apologize Mr Fowler. You have made me eat these words.

You were right on Matt Carpenter, though.  When he was on that tear last summer belting all those home runs, I was really hoping the Cardinals would trade him then while his value was high.  Instead, they just paid him 19 million a season.

Absurd.  One of the least clutch players on earth, and the numbers back it up.  Can't hit anywhere but leadoff either, also ridiculous.  Look at Paul DeJong, the guy constantly gets a big double or a home run late in games when the Cardinals need it.  I remember DeJong doing that a lot last year.

I stand by dumping Matheny was the right call, but they need a front office overhaul too.  We keep hearing how deep our starting pitching is yet our rotation is easily one of the worst in the NL
