Yessir, Siani is precisely 11 games better than any Cardinal castoff.
April 2, 2024 at 8:29 pm #246186I’d still like to know if Siani’s roll on this roster is that of a 5th OF’er?
April 2, 2024 at 8:34 pm #246187
jj-cf-stlParticipantFirst time thru the rotation the starters logged one Quality Start and a GmScA of 48 (w/50 as the starting of each starter).
April 2, 2024 at 8:45 pm #246189
jj-cf-stlParticipantThree up and three down, in the first inning, in 4 of our 6 games now.
April 2, 2024 at 8:50 pm #246191The bad news: Whirling Darvish sets us down 1-2-3 in the 1st.
The good news: Whirling Darvish looks very hitable this evening…..we should get to him.
Some other scrumptious din-dins tonight compliments of TD and BicycleMike. There’s been many occasions over the years where I’ve seen what one of our posters had for din-din that night and then I would copy it and serve it up myself the very next night.
Carter in the house tonight….
how sweet is that!April 2, 2024 at 8:50 pm #246192Siani’s role is threefold: backup center fielder to Scott, pinch runner, and late game replacement outfielder. It actually works quite well which is why I pined for him to make the team . . . before Matt Carpenter and before Brandon Crawford.
April 2, 2024 at 8:52 pm #246193FYI – Fangraphs has Kyle Gibson at -.1 FWAR for last night’s start. They weren’t impressed at all given the hard exit velocities and his ultra low batting average on balls in play.
April 2, 2024 at 8:53 pm #246194And a LF’er who robs Bogaerts of a base hit…Nice mitt!
April 2, 2024 at 8:54 pm #246195
jj-cf-stlParticipantSiani brings defensive impact. Lets see if he can hit.
April 2, 2024 at 8:54 pm #246196Hard to believe Darvish will be 38 before this season ends.
April 2, 2024 at 8:56 pm #246197JJ – he can’t. He’s a pretty terrible hitter. But he does take a lot of walks.
April 2, 2024 at 8:58 pm #246198
jj-cf-stlParticipantHe better bunt then
April 2, 2024 at 8:59 pm #246199Starting pitcher FWAR thus far:
Lynn: .2
Matz: .1
Mikolas and Gibson: -.1April 2, 2024 at 9:00 pm #246200Does Winn ever boot a ball?
April 2, 2024 at 9:01 pm #246201Yes, unfortunately.
April 2, 2024 at 9:08 pm #246202
jj-cf-stlParticipantSqueezing him doesn’t help our cause.
April 2, 2024 at 9:09 pm #246203
jj-cf-stlParticipantK when he needed it
April 2, 2024 at 9:10 pm #246204Pads hit us with a tally in the 2nd. Could the 3rd inning be our inning?
April 2, 2024 at 9:13 pm #246205Victor with a leadoff double……I think Victor is faster than Vince…..as in Coleman in his prime.
April 2, 2024 at 9:15 pm #246206Gee did Winn ever smoke that ball to left…..but unfortunately in the vicinity of the outfielder. We’re getting good wood on the ball….hopefully they’ll start falling in.
Get one to tie matters up at 1-1.
April 2, 2024 at 9:18 pm #246207
stlcard25ParticipantWay to manufacture a run there off Darvish. The inning comes to a close with a thud as Goldy takes a couple of hittable pitches and then swings at a corner pitch to end the frame.
April 2, 2024 at 9:24 pm #246208Looking forward to a big inning here . . .
April 2, 2024 at 9:25 pm #246209
jj-cf-stlParticipantI want to know that Miles can get “settled in”, instead of an adventure each inning
April 2, 2024 at 9:27 pm #246210After limited observation, I really think sending Scott back down after getting Lars, Carlson and Edman back, is going to do him more harm than good. He’s where he belongs now.
April 2, 2024 at 9:27 pm #246211My “big inning” lasted 5 whole pitches.
