GDT : Cards vs. Tigers (5/19) ~ 6:45pm CDT

[Wattage]

For those that are in the area, whats the weather like? how long is the delay expected?

Probably not resuming and calling game

[craviduce]

tarp already coming off

the tarp is likely going back on the field around 30-40 minutes

I guess it's "play as much as you can"

This one's done. I'd bet $1k they call it. Not going to do a 3-4 hr rain delay on a Monday night.

Or they could do that thing where they pause the game and finish it tomorrow afternoon. They have started doing that more.

No reason to pause and resume. This isnt a close game.

resumes at 9:15pm CDT

3 minutes

Good thing I didn't bet a $1k. They're on the field and about to restart.

Game's not over yet.

[craviduce]

give Graceffo the ball in the 8th...let him finish the game

[Monsieur De Treville]

Gorman has now gotten 2 starts in the last 12 days... heckuva runway

Praise where due for dropping Nado to 6th. I fully expected Oli to wait until at least June, so he has surpassed my expectations.

Who do you want to sit for gorman? Burly is finally starting to hit a little and already has been sitting more. Herrera being dh instead of catcher complicates things. It pushes burly out of dh which means that he gets his playing time in outfield when giving walker days off. In turn burly getting those starts in outfield.limits days donovan can be moved to outfield thus keeping donovan locked at 2b. If herrera could get back to catching that would open some at bats again.

I want Burly to sit for Gorman. They know who and what he is, and the plan was to give Gorman space to sink or swim. It was a good plan and they have not stuck with it.

Agree! We know what Burly is. 700-720 OPS and a 95-100 OPS+. He's a liability in RF and doesn't run well.

Broken record, Frenchy. For some reason, you have a very short memory on Burleson's recent contributions.

I don't have a "short memory". He is what he is....

[tgharris]

WC's hair is on fire!

[craviduce]

brilliant base running by Contreras...horrible throw by the RF. You gotta get that throw back in with gusto.

[Monsieur De Treville]

Considering Burleson was a D1 pitcher. His arm in RF probably compares fairly well to Walker's.

NOT. EVEN. CLOSE.

[82birds]

Willson got a hit.

[craviduce]

Krazy Ivan brings in 1

[craviduce]

Nado kills a bird flying 1000ft above the infield

[Joseph-Magrane]

Arenado can’t even get the ball into the outfield

[82birds]

LOL
Nado no better in the 6 hole than in the 4 hole
