Now we get 3 at home vs. TOR. It won’t be too much longer before the Cardinals will have played 33 games against AL teams before they get their first glimpse of the Chicago, Cubs on the 23rd of this month. That fact can’t hardly help but to erode the overall credibility of the league and the people that are entrusted to oversee it’s affairs and best interests.
From The Athletic:
Trending up: the Blue Jays (8-2 in their last 10 games). Mitch Bannon explains what is going so right lately.
On a good note…..The meteorological conditions look good for this one tonight. And the entire series. No green stuff in the area according to the Doppler Radar.
1. Nootbaar LF
2. Winn SS
3. Donovan 2B
4. Contreras 1B
5. Herrera C
6. Arenado 3B
7. Burleson RF
8. Gorman DH
9. Scott CFPallante P
Thanks for the lineup, Scotty! My eyes will be on the bottom 3. Can Burly keep hitting? Is Gorman on the verge of getting it together? Victor has shown flashes and has played decently……but he can and will do better. Sounds crazy now, but this bottom 3 could potentially be our top 3 one day…….Scott-Burly-Gorman.
Rat’s weather reports have been invaluable to this site. Keep em coming, Rat. Brian can thank his lucky stars that Rat isn’t charging him for his sterling meteorological reports.
What’s for din-din tonight one may ask? I’m doing Popeye’s here in about an hour. Two pieces of chicken(both breast) dipped in melted butter, red beans and rice, whole jalapeño, mashed potatoes with gravy and of course what Popeye’s din-din would be complete without 3 of their scrumptdillyitious apple cinnamon pies.
Thanks for asking. Tonight is chicken and dumplings cooked yesterday and rested in the frig today. A dbl box of cornbread in the cast iron fry pan. An inner red onion wedge w/breaded fried okra. A tall cold milk.
The other day I mentioned that the Blue Jays managed to create over 4M ticket stubs for three consecutive seasons from ’91 to ’93. Not even the BFIB can come close to making that claim. I’m not even entirely sure it’s been done by Yankee or Dodger fans. In any case, that’s a lot of tickets for a Canadien baseball team.
Since the Cardinals had that surprising real nice 9 game W streak it almost seems like they’ve regressed a little bit, but that’s not at all the case. Since the day that streak came to an end they’ve gone 13-10, which is not at all bad. At any rate, just win tonight’s game and everything’s good and well…
Ive seen maybe 2 innings but Andre is at 78 (edit) pitches over 5 IP retiring 8 in a row. Bring him back out right?
The fact that this team can’t score is even more frustrating than the fact that it can’t hit…It’s a perfect illustration of why a shutout has always been, by it’s very nature, inherently more effective at producing a W than is a no hitter.
Pallante looked like he was going to get lit up. Real nice job of adjusting and pitching a solid game. Now get some runs.
6 IP, 2 ER on 91 pitches. By my count Andre only bounced 3 of 12 knuckle curves. The have had to account for it.
