Carlos Martínez (10-9, 3.48) vs. RHP Matt Garza (6-7, 4.67) 6:40 pm FOX Sports Midwest
Note: Changed to Luke Weaver (2-1, 2.31)
From Brewers beat writer Tom Haudricourt:
“Cardinals have updated their starting pitchers for upcoming #Brewers series at Miller Park to Luke Weaver and Carlos Martinez.”
Matt Carpenter donating $10,000 for every home run he hits to the Houston relief effort. Waino and Cards org weighing in too. Good on them!
Yep, when they’re struggling to get anyone out, you hate to give them one with the middle of the order up.
Looks like the low prospect ranked one position pony has 4 RBIs tonight to help the Cards get off to a good start on this road trip.
Maybe the Cards knew something when they moved Carp to 3B to make room for him.Ratsbuddy
Carpenter a dinger, now 9-1 Redbirds.Can the bullpen hold this one???
My first thought was Weaver don’t need no stinking bullpen. After checking though, he’s been great tonight, but not efficient — currently over 90 pitches after 5 innings. But I’ll go out on a limb and say were okay since there will be no temptation to let Mayers get hammered for almost a full run through their lineup.
I wouldn’t give the Cards any more credit for “knowing” something other than they know their hand is forced to cover Gyorko’s loss for a couple weeks.
