This team really needs Ivan Herrera back to provide a spark offensively. The offense overall has been above average with a 105 wRC+ and tied league best .263 BA. But the offense has been very hit or miss due to some holes in the lineup. Herrera should shore that up.
It looks like Herrera expects to start a rehab assignment Thursday so hopefully mid week next week he is back.
Herrera will help for sure if he’s the same player when he gets back.
We will see how May goes – that will be roughly 1/3 of the season by the end.
It’s raining here in SW Indiana. And the forecast for the Cincinnati area is for rain.
We’ll be lucky this one gets in without at least a delay.
Any word from Cincinnati about the conditions at Riverfront Stadium? The Doppler Radar shows it should hit Cincinnati about the time of the first pitch.
I’d say we will be lucky to get this one in tonight. And if so, get ready for a delay. Perhaps a lengthy one.
I guess in the meantime we can all watch an episode of Cannon or Barnaby Jones.

p.s. it is pouring here in SW Indiana
Tonight's game between the #STLCards and the #Reds has been postponed because of approaching storms. It will be made up tomorrow as part of a split doubleheader.
Wednesday's Game 1: 12:40 PM ET/11:40 AM CT
Wednesday's Game 2: 6:40 PM ET/5:40 PM CT— John Denton (@JohnDenton555) April 29, 2025
Which RP do we think will be back up tomorrow as the 27th man? Roycroft, Munoz, Fernandez, or Graceffo? None of them are great choices. I would choose Graceffo to be the long man for the Mikolas game. Fernandez needs some time to focus on improvements.
Speaking of RP, I really want to see Svanson start getting more opportunities. No point in letting him rot in the pen. Throw him in there and see what he has.
Great, just great.
The first two batters reach in the top of the 3rd. Winn slugs a popout and then Donovan grounds into a DP.
This team just can’t hit.
They sure can slug though.
No, wait, they sure can try and slug.
Miles lost his curve that in inning, needs it for strikes or they sit on hard stuff.
55 pitches after 4 IP.One run through five innings in this one. That’s two (2) runs in 14 innings in a hitters ballpark.
WHY CAN’T THIS TEAM HIT?????
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM?????
Miles curve is still floating around, but Pozo went to the changeup w/2 strikes, to continue disrupting timing.
70 pitches after 5 IP.An extra out doesn’t help. Two on and Oli goes to the pen. Good pull, Miles soft stuff was questionable.
Leahy in.Leahy ends the inning. Miles had 2 ground balls and 9 fly balls. W/2 on in Cincy’s ballpark…. Good pull.
HPU almost always gives that 3-0 call to the pitcher for a strike. Just another example of the countless occurences of the Cardinal manager not knowing when to keep his mouth quiet. He’s like a little doggy…”Yap yap yap”. Stupid to get tossed from this game with a slim 1-0 lead in 8th. I sometimes wonder how the whiz-kid got to be so smart.
