Luken Baker should be DH today.

As someone said yesterday on a thread, he needs to stop trying to hit the proverbial 5 run homer on every swing. Just take some liners to get untracked and quit swinging for the fences. Hit is where it is pitched... yada yada yada...

When is the last time Contreras went to right field?

When is the last time Contreras went to right field?

At some point this season, his opposite field% is 21.7%. Which given he’s K’d in half his ABs, might be just 1 time.

Hopefully Fedde is more like start 1 rather than start 2. Fedde’s first start was the highest “Gamescore” of the season so far for our starters.

The Cards were 1 hit away on Sunday for setting the record of most consecutive games starting a season with 10 hits.
Contreras is off somehow.

Losing 3 extra inning games hurts. Defense seems pretty good. Maton is a pleasant surprise.

Luken Baker should be DH today.

Agreed.

Oli sure likes giving productive bats a day off but when it comes to the gaping black hole from which no baseball can escape, NOPE, gotta get 'er in there every day! F'n idiot.

Granted, I hope Willy ends the long con and goes on a 24 for 45 tear with an OPS over a thousand, but given the endless Conan swings, doesn't feel close.

Walker had a rough day at the plate and gets benched.

WC has had a rough season at the plate and the same rough day as Walker yesterday ... still in the lineup hitting 2nd at DH .....

Good times.

Morning baseball is odd. Go Cards
