StL 2024 Game #40 thread – Saturday, May 11 at Brewers

[ZTR]

All that excitement all for nothing.

Oh man, for a second I thought he had it! Dang!! 12 hits to their 6 and still can’t win. I give up.

[Ratsbuddy]

And that, my friends, is that.

5-3 Milwaukee the final.

One more loss tomorrow and I am predicting that Marmol and Turner are history.

Time to finish watching the Dodgers and Padres, then an episode of Mannix.

Nado 30ft short. Losing streak continues. Maybe tomorrow…

[ZTR]

Does it even matter at this point?

[RBK]

I thought the Cardinals’ publicly stated philosophy was to “compete every year.” Great, when do we start?

[blingboy]

The Cardinals are 15-24 for a .385 winning percentage. That would work out to 62-100.

[RBK]

Thank goodness they spent over $50mm on FA pitching this off-season, otherwise this season might have gone off the rails . . .

[CardsRedSox4Ever]

Yep, all for nothing. Again. Sorry but I put the blame squarely on Goldschmidt’s and Arenado’s shoulders. 1-5 and 0-5 just doesn’t cut it for the situation the team is in and their level of experience. You’ve got to get the ball to the outfield as a minimum with RISP. If you’re in a slump, figure it out or go home. Neither of them has figured it out.

Look on the sunny side…The Cardinals boast the best W/L pct. of any last place team in the NL.

[1toughdominican]

That’s 7 in a row and 9 games off the pace. I expect things to get worse before this team returns to StL. for a 9 game homestand. I also expect major changes to take place on the off day on Thursday.

[Thegreyghost]

I think that makes them 29 games under since the start of 2023

[Nathan Leopold Jr.]

I’ll be surprised if there are any changes.

[Houstonlarry24]

No changes coming where it counts.

[BrockLou]

Trifecta! Donovan, Goldy, and Arenado all left 5 guys on base each!
Is this even possible?
I don’t believe everything I read on the internet, but box scores tend to be accurate

[BrockLou]

As players age, they lose a half step at some point, and they no longer get cheap infield singles to pad the average.
Also, their bat speed drops, and they lose their power.
Is it possible that both these things happened to Goldy in the same offseason?
