St. Louis 2026 Game #56 thread – Saturday, May 30 vs. Chicago Cubs

Why is Scott talking this PA and not Velazquez? Come on Oli

[Jnevel]

Handedness? Maybe more reason to demote him when he strikes out? Not sure.

[858booyah]

I don’t understand why Scott wasn’t PH for.

[AbeRosa1920]

Can Torres play CF? I think that’s why he couldn’t PH for Scott

[AlbertTheMachine]

Well Scott strands the runner at 3rd. You’re down by 3 there in the 8th. You need someone who can hit not a guy with a whiffleball bat up there.

[Jnevel]

Well, JJ has 2 hits. The rest of our team has 1. Not a good combo.

[AlbertTheMachine]

Abe, Torres could cover CF for an inning. It doesn’t do any good to have a defensive guy out there down 3 at that point since defense can’t score you runs

[dwallyn@yahoo.com]

Change ups. But why can’t he adjust. Is he not getting help or is he just not capable of adjusting ☹️

[AlbertTheMachine]

Now Gorman boots one

[Jnevel]

Blaze Jordan is 5 for 6 in the Memphis game. I’m not sure if that’s good enough for Rats to admit he can hit or not.

[AbeRosa1920]

I tell ya that Nolan Gorman should be a hall of famer…

[858booyah]

Can Torres play CF? I think that’s why he couldn’t PH for Scott

We’ve been told Fermin can play CF. However I think that the reason Oli didn’t do is because techically were in striking distance score wise and he wants Victor’s defense. We have the top of the order up and maybe he wants to use Nelson for Gorman spot if we get to it. My guess is Nelly is left stranded on deck to end it. Lol

[AlbertTheMachine]

I just don’t have any faith Blaze Jordan can play 3B. I mean no offense to the guy but one look at him and you can see he is a 1B

[AbeRosa1920]

I hear ya AlbertTheMachine. I guess when you are down three like you said DEF doesn’t matter.

[AbeRosa1920]

Watch PCA drill a GS here…ugh

[858booyah]

I tell ya that Nolan Gorman should be a hall of famer…

Sure is at the Dyson Museum.

Jesus Christ Pushard!

[Jnevel]

I really thought they would cut Pushard after Spring Training. Then he wasn’t very good during his rehab stint. I realize this is probably garbage time at this point, but I’m not sure how long they can keep hanging onto him.

[858booyah]

He doesn’t like his glory hound homers when the game is in or out of hand.

[AlbertTheMachine]

Winn saves a run there and possible error on Wetherholt and turns 2 with that cannon

[858booyah]

Well his ERA was around 14 when he got off the DL. So he has been better. Lol

Hiwver it would be nice having a garbage time 3rd lefty like Shuster around.

[AlbertTheMachine]

3 hits for JJ 1 for the rest of the team. Hopefully this is JJ turning the tide on his batter ball luck and a journey to a .280 BA for him

[AlbertTheMachine]

What in the world is Herrera doing going to 3rd there

[858booyah]

Can’t hit, can’t throw, can’t run the bases and can’t pitch.

[858booyah]

Was Velasquez on deck?

[blingboy]

I missed the game but the best part of watching it would have been seeing a pitcher get through 7 innings on 82 pitches, even if it was their guy. I guess it helps facing a team that doesn’t have anyone who can hit.
