Good start for Ponce.. let’s continue to be patient, wait for pitches we can put in play and see what happens. Go Cardinals!
Indians announcer was saying earlier that he picked the Cardinals to win the Central until he saw our rotation. You know that was a knock on Ponce and Gant. I’m sure there are other so called experts that feel the same way. As long as their in the rotation… they need to prove them wrong.
With an off day Friday, I’d let Ponce go as long as he’s getting outs. Our BULLPEN needs the rest. Looking good thru 3 so far.
Did Ponce throw a single off speed pitch?
The Marlins announcers are saying that the miss rate on his curve is only 12%, and the miss rate on his fastball is 45%
Rogers has seemed to settle down and found a groove. Good thing we got those runs in the first. Keep getting those outs.
That double by Anderson was brought to you exclusively by the Bader injury. No way that gets down if he’s in CF.

You are correct, sir!
I see we now have 3 guys hitting over .250. Goldy, NA and Yadi. The huddled masses need to man up. Any time now would be fine. PDL looks impressive on the mound.
Ponce playing with fire in the 5th. This is the danger time for him. He needs to keep the Cards ahead by at least 3.
Man, it is easy to see why Arenado is a step above the typical Cardinal hitter. He more consistently swings at good pitches. It seems we have had 10 years of guys like Grichuk, Bader, and recently Carpenter and even DeJong who take a lot of good pitches, then flail at pitches out of the zone.
The other thing, Arenado keeps his head down and eyes right on the ball. Watching Carp pinch hit tonight, his head was looking away and not following the ball to the bat.
Basic stuff.
