If Walker and Gorman can simultaneously put together a decent season, this team may have the ability to push a few runs across HP.
McGreevy is at 72 pitches through 5. He has gotten a lot more efficient after the first. Could a really efficient 6th get him back out for the 7th?
Nice to see walker stay hot, best thing im seeing is mcgreevy. Pitching nice. Hopefully can at least get through 6th.
I’d say he’d have to work through the 6th with 10 or less pitches, Gagli. Even then, I’m not too sure the little whiz-kid general would allow him to begin the 7th. That’s a shame, but it’s the reality these days. It won’t be too long before a CG shutout is as rare as a no-no.
Alas, McGreevy needs more pitches for the 6th, so is up to 92. Time to take some antacid, folks. The bullpen needs three innings.
McGreevy reminds me a little of Matt Morris at times. Their deliveries are similar and their jersey numbers as a Cardinal are 35 and 36. In addition, they’re both big, strong, RH’ed SP’ers.
Im pretty sure morris had a little more speed, i believe mid 90s. To me mcgreevy is a little more finesse. Morris was more of a bulldog. Thats my thought anyway
Yeah, Morris worked with quite a bit of velocity before he hurt his arm and missed the ’99 season. After that, I recall that he had to work to contact. He was pretty good at it for several seasons.
And Herrera reached base three times. If Wetherholt, Herrera, Burly, Walker and Gorman all get going, that is not a bad 1-5.
Yeah, Herrera’s been scuffling early, but he’s shown that he’ll make a pitcher work and that he doesn’t chase too often.
It’s probably my imagination, but it looks to me like Ivan’s front foot is a bit more open that I recall seeing in the past. Uh ohh…Took one on the hand.
