Just saw that. Anyone know if that saves us any money via insurance?

[gscottar]

No I don’t think so. We will still pay $14.75M on Dexter unless there is some kind of insurance policy.

[bicyclemike]

Wow, that really is too bad. Was hoping Dex would have a good year out there with fellow ex-Redbird Albert Pujols.

Albert off to another slow start. Hitting just .150 with an OPS+ of 35 (which is actually “OPS-“).

I wonder if it will create an opportunity for Jon Jay who is on Angels taxi squad. Or was last I heard.

Just watched a play in the Phillies-Braves game. Marcel Ozuna caught a fly ball in shallow left field with a runner on third. He could barely get the ball to home plate to make it a close play. I think the umpires and replay both got the call wrong. The runner should have been out because he never touched home plate but he was called safe. The point is that Ozuna has NO arm left.

[Brian Walton]

Here is the play. Ozuna’s throw was a two-bouncer, but at least it was on line. The home plate ump totally blew the call.

[blingboy]

A throw like that you shouldn’t get the call. At least it wasn’t one of those worm burners Colby Rasmus used to throw now and then.

[gscottar]

As we all know Ozuna should be a DH. He will be next year.

Jedd Gyorko is also managing in this league. Delwyn Young is the new manager of the State College Spikes.

Great to see former #stlcards assistant hitting coach Derrick May back in uniform as manager of the Frederick Keys. https://t.co/00JFMkqZS1

Ildemaro Vargas has joined the Cubs from their alternate site.

[bicyclemike]

Did anyone see Shelby Miller’s line coming out of the Cubs bullpen to face Milwaukee? Zero IP, 2 hits, 3 walks and four earned runs.

Wow, talk about no command and no stuff.

[blingboy]

I wonder if he hit the screen with any.

[bicyclemike]

Wild Thing! Kind of ironic that the Cubs have both Heyward and Miller, neither of whom has been as productive as it looked like they would be when they were dealt for each other, and had great 2015 seasons.

Jon Jay has been designated for assignment by the Angels.

[Ratsbuddy]

Do we have any interest in Jon Jay?

[Brian Walton]

Why? Because he was once a Cardinal?

[1982 willie]

No we don’t have any interest in jon jay

[Ratsbuddy]

Would Jon Jay be a better option than Williams, Thomas, and Dean? Or O’Neill as well?

[jj-cf-stl]

In Gombers last start, at LAD, he went 6 IP, 3 ER and left ahead 5-3 before the pen lost it 7-5.
Through 3 GS he has a 15.1 IP, 6 ER and a 136 ERA+. One start in COL and two road starts.

[jj-cf-stl]

JJ is unavailable Rats, they are currently casting his bust for the HOF!

[Brian Walton]

An important read on a topic rarely discussed. Former #stlcards LHR Ryan Sherriff is among the four referenced. https://t.co/JKn1IfBK1Y

[BlackHillsCard]

Kind of hard not to agree with him considering what the Cardinals did to him was classless.

[lrcardinal]

Great article! I hope Ryan does indeed make it back to the Majors!
