At this moment in time, my first choice to replace the whiz-kid would be Danny Descalso. I think he’d be a first rate Big League manager and Willie Jr. would be happy with the price.

ParticipantI dont blame the fans. I havent had the funds this year but i doubt i would have went if i had them. I dont think cardinal fans expect them to spend like the rich teams but they do expect them to excel in other areas which can make up for that.
August 25, 2025 at 9:16 pm #291338Haha…Yeah, good burgers, but the corned beef and cabbage is to die for, jj!

ParticipantIm not sure they are replacing marmol. If you have low expectations why change.

ParticipantFar as tonight goes, unless oviedo was having some unknown issues, it was pretty dumb to take him out. Cardinals were kind of lost against him.
August 25, 2025 at 9:22 pm #291341I’m not sure either, Willie. For all I know he may occupy the top step for more games than TLR, Red and Whitey combined before he’s all through. We may learn to love the little guy…

ParticipantPirates third baseman lets a ball go right through his legs and they give the cardinals hitter a double. Crazy.

ParticipantIf marmol doesnt win a world series, he isnt getting any love in st louis.
August 25, 2025 at 9:25 pm #291344Yeah, Willie, the official scorers must like lofty ERA’s these days. If I were a pitcher, I’d have to get my union rep to file a grievance…

jj-cf-stlParticipantI worked at the soccer stadium and could smell the cookin’. Too convenient.
August 25, 2025 at 9:27 pm #291346Win a WS? I’m guessing that when the ’25 season comes to a close, his career managerial record will be well below sea level.
August 25, 2025 at 9:31 pm #291347I have to say that for a guy with a name like Riley O’Brien, he sure doesn’t look like a guy who’s nickname would be anywhere close to, Danny Boy…

stlcard25ParticipantTie game.
August 25, 2025 at 9:33 pm #291349Haha…What a lousy baserunning decision by Simon. Is he drunk?
August 25, 2025 at 9:35 pm #291350
jj-cf-stlParticipantLate and close. Hero needed.
August 25, 2025 at 9:43 pm #291351Burly with the hero walk off HR.
August 25, 2025 at 9:50 pm #291352Cardinals are now 5-3 in games decided in the manner of a walk-off. That’s pretty good.
August 25, 2025 at 11:48 pm #291355FYI – Announced attendance according to Derrick Goold was 17,675.
August 26, 2025 at 12:12 am #291356Them’s box score fans. Warm seats totaled 5741…
August 26, 2025 at 4:14 am #291357Referring to earlier comments here about Spahn and Mantle, the comments made me wonder if baseball hasn’t been turned into a confederacy of wusses. Whatever happened to “Hey, get up, shake it off and get back in there?” Nowadays when somebody gets a little splinter in his finger or a “contusion” on his butt it is straight to the IL or at least a couple of weeks on the bench (excellent treatment for a butt contusion I might add). People frequently talk about bigger, better, stronger athletes of today. I don’t see it. The slightest little discomfort and call in the docs! I wonder how many splinters and contusions Cal Ripken played through. I guess that’s what millions upon millions has done to the game. Baseball has found a way to find body parts to injure that nobody has ever heard of.
August 26, 2025 at 4:17 am #291358And nobody told Cal he needed a day off every week!
August 26, 2025 at 5:39 am #29136017,675 is weak. I wonder what the gate was.
!! hits is strong, led by Burly. McGreevey wasn’t lights out, but he kept it close enough and reeled off 6 IP. It was vs the Pirates, but still a nice win.
August 26, 2025 at 6:54 am #291364It looked to me like Wilson was walking away when ump said something to him so he turned to say something back then the clown ump said something that really set him off. Umps just need to STFU and stop trying to start shit with players like that.
August 26, 2025 at 12:42 pm #291369Agreed. The ump should get a fine and a suspension.
