    Absolutely great to see that McGreevy gets the start tomorrow. Hoping for a great start from him. It is not great to see they don’t know if there are. If someone had a clue what they were doing they would put McGreevy in Pallante’s rotation spot going forward.

    Quietly now (he whispers). We don’t want to awaken the sleeping giant.

    They’re sweepable. You’re not going to have a golden opportunity to sweep these Dodgers often. They came into town ripe for the picking. Have to get them now because it’s not going to be pretty when they get us back in their yard in early August. Need a big game from Victor Scott and obviously McGreevy today. The later having yet to disappoint in a starting assignment with the big club.

    That’s the lineup I’d send out there today, except I’d have VSII in CF.
    Rah Cardinals!

    The last time Barrero started was May 12th. Did you take the over on once a month? Lol!

    Pugs, what do you think about this McGreevy dude?

    I think he’s the real deal, Carter. Every opportunity he’s had with the big club, he’s brilliantly shined. For me it’s been a total mystery as to why he hasn’t seen more action in St. Louis.

    The weather looks good for this one today. All clear. Should have no problems getting this one in.

    And din din today will be a ribeye steak in the air fryer, some jumbo crinkle cut french fries, deviled eggs, a Pepsi, and a chocolate shake for dessert. All of this at the time of the 1st pitch. Then me and Whitey Herdog will be on the couch for the rest of the game with our 7×50 Palma Real Presidente cigar.

    Well, the family just polished off a lovely veal roast with baked potatoes slathered in butter and a crunchy green salad, all washed down with a nice Medoc. We topped off with a slice each of CiF’s famous blueberry pie. I’ll take a cup of coffee with me downstairs to watch a few minutes of the pre-game blah blah before first pitch.

    Let’s try to up those averages a bit tonight for Rat … and me.

    Rah Cardinals!

    How do you throw 3 strikes and have a 2-1 count?

    Home plate ump sure wanted some LA runs. Beyond generous.

    They really hit McGreevey hard in the first. Fortunately, we caught 2 of those super hard hit liners.

    Come on boys, let’s rough up Kershaw just for old time’s sake.

    Of course Kershaw gets off the plate.

    JJ – that one was 4 inches to the left of the better one McGreevey had called a ball. Crazy.

    Umpiring has an agenda.

    HP umpire doing his best to help the Dodgers from being swept.

    Unless McGreevy can get his pitches down it might not matter.

    According to Gameday – It was a strike to Contreras but about as borderline as it gets. The one to Donovan wasn’t even close to a strike. And the 2 “balls” McGreevey threw to Freeman were both easy strikes – especially the second one. Frustrating.

    Everything is up for McGreevey. 7 of the first 9 Dodger hitters with exit velocities over 100 mph according to announcers.

    When he gave Freeman 5 strikes it was captain obvious intentions. We don’t see this nightly.

    Heck of an effort by Winn.

    McGreevy is getting hit hard but he showed a little toughness the last 2 batters to grind it out.
