Agree with both you guys. Dodging the bullet for sure!
April 7, 2023 at 8:44 pm #215863Chris Duncan carried the Cardinals in ’06 while Albert was on the DL for about a month in ’06, LeGrand, but Ludwick wasn’t a Redbird until ’07.
April 7, 2023 at 8:47 pm #215864Not the best night for Goldschmidt. I was surprised Counsell replaced Woodruff after he carved up Goldy last time, but Payamps struck him out as well.

ParticipantJust tuned in to see goldy take a 3-0 fastball right down the middle, then gets a wicked called strike, then strikes out swinging. Boggles my mind. 3-0 you should always be looking fastball down the middle only and swinging if you get it
April 7, 2023 at 8:51 pm #215866Sheesh, terrible swing by Contreras on 3 and 0. But he walks anyway – every pitch to Contreras was in the same spot.
April 7, 2023 at 8:52 pm #215867Jeez – you would think to delete an entire thread a warning would come up like, “About to delete this thread – are you sure?”
D’oh! If it was smart design, it would have a deleted thread waste basket. Did you check that? I noticed even on my Fios DVR if I delete a recording, I can recover it from the waste bin.
April 7, 2023 at 8:54 pm #215868Man – O’Neill does not get it out of the infield on the 3-1. Gotta be aggressive on 3-1, but Payamps sawed him off with a great pitch.
Our club is really in a funk right now. The potent offense of the first three games has disappeared.
April 7, 2023 at 8:55 pm #215869The correct answer to the first question of the trivia is Dane Iorg. He not only tied Lonnie Smith and George Hendrick for most Redbird hits in the 1982 WS with 9, but he only he appeared in 5 games to collect his 9 hits. He also led all Cardinals in that WS with a scathing .529 BA. And although he scored 4 runs in that WS, he only pushed 1 run across HP for his solitary RBI. Most of us should remember that he reappeared in 1985 to be a major player in a very bad nightmare for the Cardinals and the rest of us who watched that game when he drove in the tying and winning runs with a PH 2 RBI single to end Game 6 of the 1985 WS in KC.
April 7, 2023 at 8:55 pm #215870Yeah, I would think we can recover that thread Euro. Will see.
April 7, 2023 at 8:57 pm #215871It really wasn’t a great pitch, except O’Neill made it one. It was ball 4.
April 7, 2023 at 8:59 pm #215872Chris Duncan carried the Cardinals in ’06 while Albert was on the DL for about a month in ’06, LeGrand, but Ludwick wasn’t a Redbird until ’07

I’m not talking about ’06. It was prolly ’08. not sure.April 7, 2023 at 9:09 pm #215873When I first glanced at Brewers RF’er Joey Wiemer, I thought he was Rusty Staub.
April 7, 2023 at 9:10 pm #215874Oh, I thought you were referring to the same season as the Rolen/TLR rift, LeGrand.
April 7, 2023 at 9:16 pm #215875The Brewers had what I thought was a pretty clever logo on their caps with the old mitt and baseball M b logo. This new one is silly. I had to look it up to see what the heck it meant.
April 7, 2023 at 9:21 pm #215876It’s been a while since I’ve seen a called strike that was that far off the plate. That was beyond bad.
April 7, 2023 at 9:23 pm #215877When is comes to calling balls/strikes, there are two kinds of umps — bad and worse.
When Hicks comes into a game, stuff happens. Fast.
April 7, 2023 at 9:33 pm #215878Early in a long season and the pitching has been suspect at best. But I wonder if the real problem isn’t one with the players vs. the manager. Something just seems grossly off, and that run in with TO I don’t think has settled out yet. Does Marmol make it through the year is a legit question that may need answering.
April 7, 2023 at 9:46 pm #215879It sure does, Euro, but what’s worse is that he keeps getting the baseball handed over to him during games of which are still within reach. I don’t get it.
April 7, 2023 at 9:47 pm #215880How much longer does the club keep Hicks with the Big League club? He is struggling and needs to get some things corrected. Don’t believe he can do that at the Big League level.
April 7, 2023 at 9:50 pm #215881TexasCard…As you mentioned it’s early, but if this team is 10 games under at the break, he’ll probably need a strong sedative to get a good night’s sleep.
April 7, 2023 at 9:52 pm #215882Better start winning. We don’t want to fall too far behind….the Pirates
April 7, 2023 at 9:53 pm #2158831982 willie
ParticipantNaughton gets some kind of freak injury. These guys made of glass, what the heck.
April 7, 2023 at 9:57 pm #215884Well, depite the 6 BB’s, the SP’er wouldn’t have won this one with a CG shutout.
April 7, 2023 at 9:59 pm #215885Has there ever been a two win season?
April 7, 2023 at 10:16 pm #215886The offense was weak tonight and after playing seven games the Cardinals have a grand total of zero quality starts from the rotation.
