Last year Noot was always in the middle of things. This year so far there haven’t been many things to be in the middle of, so his impact has been muted even though he’s been getting on base better than ever.
May 3, 2023 at 3:57 pm #218774Din din tonight is a skillet fried ham steak, a real fatty. Bundles of fresh green beans wrapped in bacon and cooked in the oven. For desert is homemade shortcake and backyard strawberries. I forgot to get cream to whip but we have the kind in a spray can.
May 3, 2023 at 4:01 pm #218775I can’t speak for anyone else, but I always looked upon Dave Kingman and Adam Dunn as cut from the same cloth in regards to the type of offensive players they both were. Immense power, lifetime BA’s in the .230’s and both perennial league leaders at falling victim to the K. I was surprised to see one glaring difference. They’re separated by a 60 pt. difference in career OBP and this wide margin is entirely due to either the ability or willingness to draw a BB.
May 3, 2023 at 4:07 pm #218776Don’t get it mixed up with that can of pine tar. I’d imagine it’d ruin those nice strawberries and shortcake…
May 3, 2023 at 4:33 pm #218777Cardinals have one OFer with a positive WAR. Of course a significant part of that is how they’ve been misemployed defensively.
May 3, 2023 at 4:52 pm #218778Don’t get it mixed up with that can of pine tar.
Oli: Ok guys, tonight we’re going to pop open a spray can of woopass.
May 3, 2023 at 5:16 pm #218781Haha!…I’m genuinely afraid he may say something along those lines and they’ll beat the poor little guy up.
May 3, 2023 at 5:30 pm #218784All of our potential trade chips are losing value due to poor performance. That’s not going to be helpful.
Our trade chips are DeJong, Flaherty, Montgomery, Hicks, VerHagen, and Stratton for sure with expiring contracts. I have said O’Neill and will keep saying O’Neill. Possibly Edman or Donovan, Helsley, if the price was right. I think we all wish someone would take Matz, but don’t think anybody would.
May 3, 2023 at 6:58 pm #218795Gorman! 1-0
May 3, 2023 at 7:08 pm #218796Didn’t last long 1-1
May 3, 2023 at 7:14 pm #218797Great hit by Gorman! Ohtani has given up 12 hits this year before Gorman’s. Anyone know how many of those were HRs (if any)?
May 3, 2023 at 7:19 pm #218799Ohtani gave up 2 HRs his last start.
May 3, 2023 at 7:23 pm #218800Ok, he is human after all!
May 3, 2023 at 7:27 pm #218801He only gives up homers to last place teams.
May 3, 2023 at 7:30 pm #218802That was brutal leaving Burleson on third after he was there with no outs.
May 3, 2023 at 7:38 pm #218803Ugh. 1-3 now.
I’m ready for Cardinals’ offense to explode…
May 3, 2023 at 7:40 pm #218804He only gives up homers to last place teams.
Great, maybe there’s hope for us if he stays in the game!
May 3, 2023 at 7:42 pm #2188057 outs, 7 Ks
May 3, 2023 at 7:45 pm #218806I’m ready for Cardinals’ offense to explode…
The way things are going, it would probably just blow itself up.
May 3, 2023 at 7:55 pm #218807The FO has managed to assemble a starting rotation not only without an ace but also not even a #2 guy.
Montgomery is a solid #3, Mikolas is a 4/5, Flaherty, Woodford, and Matz truthfully should not be starting for anyone.
Wainwright will be a 4/5 guy.
Liberatore is the only hope we have right now for another 3 guy, maybe a 2?
It’s just pathetic right now…
May 3, 2023 at 7:56 pm #218808Back to back doubles. Keep it going boys.
May 3, 2023 at 7:59 pm #2188092 run blast for Carlson. That might chase superman, lol
May 3, 2023 at 8:00 pm #218810Carlson goes yard! Didn’t see that coming!
May 3, 2023 at 8:03 pm #218811It was good to see Carlson hit a RHP. His numbers against RHP have been horrible. I hope this is a trend and not a one-off.
May 3, 2023 at 8:17 pm #218812I was thinking he has no chance from the left side. That’s what I get for thinking.
