We really need to win at least one of these games today, if not both.
Our focus should be on getting healthy, getting in the playoffs, and making a run in October. Let the Cubs have their fun right now. Wouldn’t it be nice if we knocked them out of the playoffs in October?
It’s finally time for Flaherty again. 11 games between starts, even with a long COVID break? Hopefully Jack is sharp. I agree with gscottar that we need a win, and probably two, today. The Cubs have managed to avoid getting their soft underbelly (the pen) exposed this whole series.
I also hope that Carlson sits at least one game. He’s got a lot on his shoulders and hasn’t performed yet. Lots of missed opportunities.
Tyler O’Neill is good to go for today. Was a late scratch last night with a finger issue. #STLCards

Gomber activated….Oviedo on the way…..lineup posted
#stlcards activate Gomber for Game 1, so he can be used in relief, if needed. If not, sets him up to start Game 2. They're also prepared with an alternative option — as Oviedo makes his way to Chicago: https://t.co/6Cz3CQucbs #Cardinals @stltoday #MLB

Looks like all hands on deck this year. Makes things more interesting since we don’t get any news from Springfield.
The Cards have a little bit of a thing going in the first. 1st and 3rd with none out for Goldy. Need a couple of runs.
You have to give Shildt credit with the lineup construction today. Carp profiles as a pretty good number four hitter at this stage in his career. He is probably not going to hit for a high everage any longer but he still has power and can be a good rbi guy.
Surely we now have enough runs for Flaherty? Right? I guess it depends how many innings he can go and if the wind is blowing out.
Jack gives up a homer to right and a rocket that Carlson catches. We need to get 5-6 innings from him. He settles in with a K of Baez.
Ok, that slider was sharp. Caratini missed it by about a foot. Seems like the Cards will only ask Flaherty to go 2.
I don’t understand taking Flaherty out after 41 pitches? Unless trainers or Schildt saw something they didn’t like?
