Pozo needs to lay off the Carnitas and Cerveza at the cantina. Lipo won’t help him if he has a poor off-season regiment.
He just needs to hit our boy Lance Lynn up and ask him about how he got his beach body about 13 years ago. Lol
I’m sure Chip played it up down 8 with “this team never gives up” BS.
August 6, 2025 at 12:24 am #289788The Cards did come back from 7 runs down in the 9th, to win. I heard it on radio, maybe about ’54-’55. It was a night game. I wonder if that could be looked up…
August 6, 2025 at 7:10 am #289803Its hard to see Mikolas going until the end but there is nobody else. We are a SP injury away from meltdown.

jj-cf-stlParticipant6 runs, 9 hits, multi-HR’s, doesn’t even matter until we can pitch.
August 6, 2025 at 8:29 am #289806Nootbar in cf, lol. Well I guess Scott has to have a day off every now and then and the only other alternative is to bring up Siani…
I like Herrera in lf – I think that can work.
Walker is an ongoing disaster.
Gorman with a couple of hits but don’t buy in – not unless he can hit for the rest of the season.
Youngsters in the bullpen taking some lumps – gotta do it so we can separate the wheat from the chaff.
I long for the day when I never have to see Mikolas pitching for the Cardinals….
He and Sonny can open a restaurant to replace Shannon’s and Stan & Biggie’s – Pozo can be the chef?
I hope Wetherholt gets his cup of coffee this season.

jj-cf-stlParticipantI don’t know about the rest of the season on Gorman, ZTR. I do know after 115 games Gorman does have a better ops than Winn, Nootbaar, Arenado, Scott, Walker and Pages (6 starters). Good luck to them all, “the rest of the season”.
August 6, 2025 at 9:04 am #289809Well as I said, you get good starting pitching and you always have a shot. You don’t, and it does not matter much how much offense you generate, it is tough to win.
And of course the bullpen needs to hold its own. None of that worked out last night, and despite scoring six runs it was a blowout.
We simply have to somehow find or develop at least two, and ideally three good starting pitchers for next season and beyond. Get the pitching and build around that.
