Nah – May as well let Pages play. Why bother at this point worrying about it?
Let Herrera catch 4-5 days a week and Pages 1.
Man, Mikolas lost it in a hurry. Wonder if he will be the next to go on the IL with some sort of ailment?
You won’t have to wonder – You will get to see it in living color.
Team has to be shocked over losing Willson but – at the same time – it sure is beginning to look like they are going to mail it in for the rest of the season.
Wow I’m glad I swapped it over to the Cubs game to watch Imanaga pitch instead of Mikolas. Mikolas has been a very frustrating pitcher to watch since his pitches are just so hittable. It doesn’t matter if you avoid walks if your pitches are basically batting practice.

He hasn’t looked hurt to me when watching him, but maybe they will come up with a phantom injury. Mikolas just hasn’t kept up with the hitters the last couple of years.
Well that’s probably the season for Contreras. I’m lost for words on seeing that. That was brutal and I’m not sure how he put himself in that situation to begin with.
Can anyone clarify the 5 Options per year limit? Currently Pages has been optioned 3x already and he’s most likely to get recalled with Contreras going down. I’m assuming the option during ST counts but I’m not sure on the rules and can’t seem to find a SparkNotes on the subject.
The Mets just got a crooked-er number than the Cards did.
And who said the Cards can’t catch a break this year?
They’ll prop his contract up as SP3. It would be easier to PR Miles if they sign another Sonny Gray type as SP2. I’d wait him (Miles) out, for a SP2. Miles trend is not reversing, to date.
Was watching a game here in Fla last night and they were talking about catchers interference being really up this year. (Ie) Contreras? Seems the rule changes last year has the catchers setting up closer to the strike zone. Trying to shorten the time the ump and batter have to see the pitch. Not really sure bout how all that works but losing Contreras bat is really gonna hurt. Hope some other guys start hitting soon. Don’t need another year like the last one.
Well based on this angle, Martinez’s back foot appears to be completely outside of the box. Its not a great angle and I’m not 100% certain but it does appear so…
This is just too close. Batters are standing as far back as possible to counter velocity. Catchers are getting as close as possible to frame pitches.
Not sure if it needs to be regulated somehow but this sucks to see. https://t.co/zdL6TkUkaJ pic.twitter.com/oHLPZWuxTZ

With that said about Martinez, fire every single person in the Cardinals’ organization. Holy crap I’m lost for words:
In an attempt to help catcher Willson Contreras get more low strikes, the #STLCards have him moved up closer to the plate. However, JD Martinez's bat hit Contreras on the left forearm during his swing.
Contreras is out of the game. He was in obvious pain, yelling out right away. pic.twitter.com/0XCgzBQG0D
