The odds are definitely not on our side in this one. I find myself conflicted going into this last week before next Thursday’s 5pm(cst) trading deadline. I couldn’t ever in a million years imagine rooting for our Cardinals to lose. But my fear is that we’ll take 3-4…..or God forbid sweep these Padres and then have our powers that be falsely thinking our club is a legitimate playoff team. After all, they do have a profound track record of being easily fooled. Make no bones about it, our Cardinals are stone cold Sellers with a capital “S”. To act in any other manner than that as a Seller would be terribly ignorant. So though I could never realistically root for our boys to lose, I will not shed any tears whatsoever if they don’t play their best ball this weekend vs San Diego.
