This is on Manager

; only one team in Cards franchise history (1960) was winless after first 8 road games. The 2025 Cardinals are one of 11 Cards teams to be 1-7 in first 8 road games of a season.” Bernie
0-4 in 1 run game in ‘25 as well
This is having a manager who doesn’t know how to prepare his win to WIN. Oli think every game is a learning opportunity. Send this clown to the minors to teach or instruct something. He isn’t a ML manager.

Re: This is on Manager
Just how do you know that the manager is not preparing the team to win on the road. The effort is good. They are fighting back when behind and they are hustling. In other words, got any proof?
Re: This is on Manager
Of course we do, Goldfan. But it’s simply not always the manager’s fault.

The point of suiting up a MLB team is to win games!!!
Not play a washed up pitcher because you signed him to a BAD contract
Not to kiss a vets (bleep) and worry about moving him down in order when he can’t hit
Not to take out SP too early and leave others in too long
WIN THE GAME….there’s no moral victory in MLB…..there are fans who stay home because they’re tired of paying for and watching idiot losers

Miles Suck……so manager doesn’t start him
WC couldn’t hit…..so manager drop to bottom of order
Fernandez has been tattooed…..so manager doesn’t pitch him in a tied game in 9th inning
Burly is non-productive and has no position….so manager doesn’t play him
You see how that works…..this attitude that “stuff happens” gives us a below .500 team and continues to cough up winnable games.

About ownership, front office, manager, coaches, team? Maybe an individual player? Anything?

Marmol doesn't know how to manage and it becomes noticeable in close games. Sure players have to play, but managers have to use guys appropriately and put them in spots to be successful. Marmol has failed in that regard, bigtime!

lol. Torre was bashed on CT. Whitey was bashed on CT. Tony was bashed on CT. Matheny was bashed on CT. Shildt was bashed on CT. Now it’s Oli’s turn.
What’s new?
