I smell rain.
Good morning.
60 percent chance of storms beginning around three pm. Could be heavy. Chances we play are too low for zero.
Do we do a double header tomorrow with Skenes. Worst thing that could happen is we get rained out. Momentum killer.

Re: I smell rain.
Unsure on momentum killer ... Cards being in a long stretch may cherish having a day off to give their body a rest. Players mindset is more day to day in baseball. Good ones don't get too up nor too down winning or losing. As you often hear some say, 162 games is a long season. The team is barely only halfway done. Long way to go .sikeston bulldog2 wrote: ↑30 Jun 2025 07:16 am Good morning.

Re: I smell rain.
Good response. I’ll go opposite. I say they wanna play in 80 degree weather verse 96. Also while winning, the pain and tiredness don’t feel as bad, although they may be evident.ramfandan wrote: ↑30 Jun 2025 07:34 amUnsure on momentum killer ...

Your point on rest is valid. I don’t want another double header with Skenes involved. Just not optimal strategy. Losing streaks are very fragile.

Hope that the Buccos bats calm down a bit. They just put up 9-9 -12 against the Mets worn out pitching staff
Re: I smell rain.
Both teams are off on the third. Any chance they play then vs double header? Cards have short trip to Chicago. Pirates though go to Seattle.sikeston bulldog2 wrote: ↑30 Jun 2025 07:16 am Good morning.

When the BDog smells rain, it usually leads to a DHer.

Just radars and forecast. Then check the SPC models. What I did in mikitary first ten years- weather.rockondlouie wrote: ↑30 Jun 2025 08:26 am When the BDog smells rain, it usually leads to a DHer.

As for rain out- a DH with Skenes attached is a recipe for a sweep.
Re: I smell rain.
Another doubleheader would be our 7th of the season marking the most by the franchise in a normal season since at least 1990.

They've beaten Skenes multiple times (but he is due).

Re: I smell rain.
Weather briefings and intel briefings (target information) precede individual flight briefings, given by the flight leader. All are important.sikeston bulldog2 wrote: ↑30 Jun 2025 08:39 amAren’t weather briefings a Large part of the overall brief.Cranny wrote: ↑30 Jun 2025 08:37 amPilots appreciate weather briefings.sikeston bulldog2 wrote: ↑30 Jun 2025 08:32 amJust radars and forecast.
