If Sosa keeps playing the way he has been, I don’t think there’s much of a chance that the Cardinals would give the shortstop job to another shortstop.
If the Cards should happen to get to the playoffs don’t be surprised to see Dejong at short. Schildt has shown his loyalty to players over team with Carp. Great series by the way. Keep this run going.
Who are those guys! I got up this morning to find somebody had swept the Metropolitains and padded their WC lead. Somebody told me they were wearing birds on a bat. The trainers must be slipping joy juice into the bubble gum box. Whoever they are, let’s hope they show up for this weekend series. Almost a shame it’s a day off today. Don’t want to give them a chance to cool down.
The big win means we have worked or season run differential down to -5.
Carp and Andrew Miller are making $30 Million between them, so we will continue to see them getting time on the field. But that still leaves us 26 guys to win with.
You’re probably right bling, but the numbers are different now. Carp has about $1.5 million due for the half month that remains and Miller about 1 million.
Last night makes it clear that you are playing with a shortened roster with Miller taking a spot. At least there’s no way Miller would be added to the post-season roster if they make the wild card, I think. And what is Carp now, oh-fer his last 31? But yes, pretty safe bet Carp will be around until the end, including post-season.
