Carlos Martinez (7‐9, 3.59) vs. Homer Bailey (3‐5, 7.32) 12:10 p.m. FOX Sports Midwest
Adam Wainwright (11‐5, 4.89) will come off the DL to start with Martinez moving to Monday.
Whats the over/under that Scooter Gennett hits four homeruns off of Wainwright today?
And it looks like there might be some rain in the Cincinnati area. Hope this one gets played today, and without major delays.

I am confused. Is Jose Martinez the cleanup hitter or the guy to be optioned to Memphis when Fowler returns next week? If there was ever an example of how badly this roster is constructed, this is it.
#STLCards vs. Cincinnati (8/6):
Carpenter 1B
Pham CF
DeJong SS
J. Martinez LF
Molina C
Wong 2B
Grichuk RF
G. Garcia 3B
Wainwright P— St. Louis Cardinals (@Cardinals) August 6, 2017
We don’t have a cleanup hitter. Need one very badly. We do have a surplus of hitters that strikeout all the time, however.
And in spite of the homerun last night DeJong is struggling as of late. Not sure why Matheny keeps running a young guy that’s struggling out there in the #3 hole.
Gyorko is lost at the plate nowadays too. Glad to see him get another day off.

Doesn’t appear to be any rain in Cincinnati at the moment. No tarp on the field either. First pitch just about 5 minutes away.
Lets hope Wainwright can redeem himself from his last start in Cincinnati.

And Wainwright is up to his bad self to start. Singles by Hamilton and Cozart and then a three run homer by Votto. 3-0 Reds in the 1st, they are still batting, nobody out.
Wainwright is not fooling anyone. Anymore runs given up given our offense and game over.
So we’ve had 6 batters to open the game. Three Cardinals have made outs and three Reds have scored. Might be a good day to do some yard work.
Poor outfielding by Grichuk

Glad I have plans to go kayaking
Excellent start by Waino…28 pitches so far no outs two on down 3 already. Where’s Luke Weaver when you need him?
Take him out please, put him back on the DL.
Nice play by Carpenter
Horrible first inning for Wainwright. He’s not had a turd like that for some time.
Bad news 45 pitches for Waino. Good news somehow he only allowed 3 runs.
Yep, for a guy who’s taken a lot of criticism for his defense, that was a perfect play, perfect throw by Carpenter. It possibly gives us a chance in this game, but somebody from the pen is going to have to go a long middle stint. Now I’m going to do my yard work and will check back in an hour to see if we’re still in it. 😉

Wong has been playing well of late
Grichuk breaks a 0 for 10 slump tie game
Homer Bailey just what this offense needed.
And with Garcia’s hit somehow we’re actually leading this game…
Really need Carpenter to put the ball in play

Twice now runners in scoring position and less than two outs and we leave them there.
You are correct. Not sure I want Fowler back.
Now we’re in the 4th and up 13-3…I’m not making that up, Martinez with a grand slam and Voit with a 2 run ground rule double to do the bulk of the scoring…
