Once again, thanks Duce.

Any update on Willy C's back?

It's out to mow the twice a week portion of my lawn. Go Cards!

#STLCards manager Oli Marmol said that 1B/DH Willson Contreras (back spasms) is feeling markedly better today. He is undergoing treatment on the back spasms that knocked him out of the lineup for two days. He should return to the lineup tomorrow, Marmol said.

The #STLCards at #Rays game, originally set for Saturday, Aug. 23 at 7:05 p.m., has been moved to Thursday, Aug. 21 at 7:35 p.m.

The change was made to avoid a direct conflict with the Buccaneers NFL preseason game against the Buffalo Bills nearby in Tampa.

Get better soon! I get it ... some days I hurt myself sitting up in bed ... and baseball is way harder.

Go cards

There is something oddly comforting about seeing Herrera at cleanup. It seems like forever since we had a player in that position who actually could rake.

You say he rakes. I see very little of his play except replay. Paint the picture. Good swing, good eye, barrel rate, k rate. Etc.

Thanx.

BDog... IH is a good line drive hitter who has some pop and uses the whole field. His ABs are not quite must see like Albert's, but I certainly make sure I see when Ivan is up to the plate. Kid is like the coiled spring. You know the look. Funny stance, but who cares. Many great hitters have funny stances. What I like is that he uses the whole field and he is a good situational hitter. Generally, with 2 strikes, he will put the ball in play. Goes OPPO when appropriate. Like Donnie with considerably more pop. You can see him getting more confident daily. My 2 cents.

That is a perfect description. Good work, I have nothing to add.

Libby gets out of the jam!

[craviduce]

all 5 Batters against Libby were around 80mph EV ...not good contact...small adjustment and they're spanking those pitches.

you gotta adjust a bit, Libby

AZ swinging early and often trying to ambush Libby a bit --- 5 hitters and only 11 pitches.
