that’s a bad walk, then a double. you shouldn’t be pitching carefully to the pitcher. I understand if its a typically great hitting pitcher but not the case here. just put it in there.
Strike one is called ball one to Altuve. Wouldn’t it be nice if it went both ways on the ump squeezing the pitchers?
Altuve with the bomb. Hudson with three fly balls allowed and all left the park so far, I believe. 5-0 Astros. Seems this one might be over.
Hudson has pitched well and he has been squeezed at time though I consider it more an inconsistent zone since ive seen it both ways. but Hudson has also thrown some flat pitches.
The Astros have left 6 on base in the game and the Cards are now at 17. Lack of timely hitting can really burn you.
Just be thankful the Cards are not getting swept. These two teams are night and day apart. The Cards have failed at several basic things today. Also, be thankful the Cards are among mediocre friends in the NL Central.
Seventeen lob would really make me crazy. Somebodys not gettin’ the rbi. We always called that “choking”. At the plate. Guess they need my sports vusualization technique. You mentally visualize yourself succeeding and then you do it! So I am glad they pulled Hudson before it was completely hopeless. Seems like our starters have a 5 inning brick wall. Thats ok we gotta win the ones we can. Winning the division would be a good goal. Hang in there, Go Cardinals!
well we score our first run. but that’s it. I think its been clear we aren’t an elite team. but none of the teams in our division are so that helps us. which is surprising to me but it gives us a chance to win this division.
some pretty shoddy defense today. that’s an error on Martinez. I don’t care what the scorer says. itzs why I don’t trust all these statistics especially fielding and pitching. you get a glove on the ball, the play should almost always be made.
It’s not an elite team, for sure, but the team they are celebrating this weekend from ’04 was elite and didn’t win it all. Hot streaks happen and that’s the goal for October. The Cards are capable of better play than today. I do think they need some trade tweaks coming up and I hope Mo/Hirsch are able to make those.
2 runs on 9 hits doesn’t sound too good. Just about everybody hit though. One guy didn’t and hasn’t in quite awhile. Gotta wonder how long they will carry a player like that? More hits from the rookie than anybodyelse. I agree we can play better and I think we will! Relief pitching was very good again. Still needing better offense but it is getting better. Go Cardinals!
If the Cards don’t get more innings from their starters, the pen will degrade down the stretch. Help is needed. Somehow, someway!

I agree that they need more from the starters.
However, it might take some clearing, but I think a couple of the Memphis guys could help in September. Fernandez for sure and maybe Woodford, Cabrera and Helsley (the last two already on the 40 man of course).
