Mikolas is just brutal on the road. Fortunately we won’t see this clown show next year. We just have to hope whoever takes his place is better. The bar is low, but still you never know.

ParticipantHow bout that Albert! That must be Churchs first ML Home Run!

ParticipantMikolas looked off to me from the first inning Mike. Looks like hes moving slow to me. But I’m just watching tv though.

ParticipantContreas dinger!Yowza!
August 22, 2025 at 8:44 pm #291143Let the Church vs Scott in 2026 debate begin!

jj-cf-stlParticipantYah, a couple HR’s gets us back to late and close.

ParticipantClimbed back into this game now.
August 22, 2025 at 8:52 pm #291146Nice to see us make it a ball game. See if these “B” relievers can keep it close.
Congrats to Nathan “Bubba” Church with his first MLB ding-dong!!!
Add-on: looks like the second string bullpeners won’t keep this one close.

ParticipantGuy just up frim AAA Rays hits his first ML dinger in first game! Wow. Thats why you don’t walk the first batter too!
August 22, 2025 at 8:58 pm #291148Wooster2
ParticipantChurch with a wall catch.They’re going deep now!
August 22, 2025 at 8:59 pm #291149
jj-cf-stlParticipantLate and not as close.
August 22, 2025 at 9:12 pm #291150Let the Church vs Scott in 2026 debate begin!
They could be in the same outfield.
August 22, 2025 at 9:13 pm #291151
jj-cf-stlParticipantMikolas and the audition relievers are taking their toll on this game.
10-6 TB after 8August 22, 2025 at 9:27 pm #291152Wooster2
Participant6 runs on 9 hits sounds good for us. However giving up 10 runs in 16 hits tells the story about our pitching. Hope its better Sunday.Go Cardinals!
August 22, 2025 at 10:22 pm #291155I didn’t see a solitary pitch, but glancing at the box, I’m trying to figure out how Miles only got touched up for 5 ER’s after surrendering 10 hits including 2 HR’s in less than 3 innings of work. What’s really amazing is that it looks as though the Cardinals are so incredibly short on pitching depth that they can’t even figure out a way to shut Miles down due to some sort of malady. It’s a genuine jungle out there in Redbird land.

Like I said before, I can imagine Bloom googling how to say a Hail Mary.
August 22, 2025 at 10:51 pm #291157Haha!..Either that, or he might want to check on ebay for a deal on an effective amulet.
August 22, 2025 at 11:45 pm #291159Taking a gander at the late Friday night scoreboard:
The Cubs win 3-2 with a run in the 9th at Anaheim. It was a homerun by Peter.
The Reds lose 6-5 in 11 innings at Arizona.
The Doyers lose 2-1 to the Padres at Qualcomm Stadium.
August 23, 2025 at 5:59 am #291161I had to google amulet.
August 23, 2025 at 8:58 am #291168The Mikolas extension will surely go down as one of the worst in Cardinal history made exponentially worse by the fact that the team is riding it out through the very. last. start.
We desperately need an owner / ownership group that has the wherewithal and the desire to eat a bad contract here and there and go get another player.
August 23, 2025 at 10:04 am #291170Amen Z. Problem with the Cardinals is it hasn’t just been here and there. We are always hanging on to a bad contract. Bill’s biggest mistake was hanging on to Mo.
August 23, 2025 at 1:27 pm #291183I am convinced that BDW would rather sky dive off the top of the Arch than pay someone not to play. It would be ok if it happened just occasionally but as KCB mentioned we always have a bad contract lingering.
Waino extension
Carp extension
Fowler
Leake
Cecil
Matz
Mikolas
Peralta
DeJong
MillerI am probably forgetting others. You can probably add Arenado to the group as well.
