I’m fearful Norris will be worthless come September with the amount of usage he’s getting so far. We still have 2 guys who can’t their jobs done: Bowman and Holland
We will probably add a reliever at the deadline like always. Gregerson or Holland may turn it around by then. Reyes/Weaver/Flaherty may move to relief. There are a lot of options.
Great day on two counts. Of course, our Birds getting back into the win column and Carter’s reemergence. Welcome back Carter!! Sure would have been nice to see Miles register win #6 though. Can’t come any closer to victory with his 4 2/3’s innings. He wasn’t quite the Miles that we Cards fans have come to know and love out there on the hill today. But, that’s textbook stuff from the real good ones…even when they are off their game, they still have enough to keep you in the game. And we saw the happy end result here this afternoon in Minnesota. Speaking of miles, I came an eyelash away from going the extra mile this morning and heading up the road to see the game. I had a 8:30a business meeting in Eau Claire. It was my hope to get loose before 10a, but ended up not shaking free until just before noon. I guess today’s game just wasn’t in the cards for me. Once again, please make Carter feel at home with a hardy “hello Carter”!.
