But....here goes!
Yes....after McGreevy who probably is in the rotation after the deadline Roby & Mathews figure to be next up. Possibly Hence also.
Best guess? They are vying for spots next ST.
And yes Matz could also figure in but depending on his asking price more likely leaves for free agency after the season.
Hopefully we don’t have to answer this identical OP again in a week????
'Hopefully we don’t have to answer this identical OP again in a week????" Why do you keep responding then?
Ok......great question!!!
Since you say you are here to talk baseball I did respond once again in a sincere effort to meet you halfway.
Now....meet us all halfway and reduce the extremely repetitive threads.
If you do I will gladly make a sincere effort to talk baseball with you as I’m sure others will also.

LMAO
Well I made the effort. Which is way more than you do!
Now....continue saying one thing...doing another....and then playing the victim card.
I have actually felt sorry for you at times as I felt you had a condition and needed genuine help.
But now I see your true colors and I totally believe all the other posters when they speak of your sordid past behavior under multiple screen names.
You deserve what you get on a daily basis.

Tell us Shady, what is the appropriate response to this [shirt]?

Do we think a high drafted pitcher and a pitcher we traded for will factor in as pitchers? I F’ing hope so.

I see you're bored and MSN doesn't have lifted Cardinal stories for you to Copy.

The innovation is "Fill In the Blank"...."obviously"
Why the constant put down attempts? Why be so defensive? Everybody knows your the greatest on CT. You advised your click to ignore me but you can't. What's the deal? Are you a fraud? If I see your pensive attempts yo dismiss me, I'm going to just scroll om by. Play your silly games with your click all you want. No biggie to me.
He is not putting you down or being defensive.
You require no help with that, whoever you are today.
He is calling you out on your constant Groundhog Day posts, which cause the rest of us to have to wade through your sewage of retread threads.
You ask why we don't just ignore you; believe me, we try.

Surprised Fedde and Mikolas aren’t on the 10 day IL. As bad as they are pitching, they have to be injured. Dead arm syndrome or something.

Maybe you could start another thread on this tomorrow and discuss it. 15 times isn’t enough.

It is rather sad that, with the sorry starting pitching situation, the organization 1) doesn't have a couple suitable replacements in the minors or 2) are determined to play the contracts despite how ineffective they are..

What, Roby not “suitable” anymore? Thought he was our Cy Young savior.

Are they going to be as great as the current bunch of losers. The Organization doesn’t seem to understand the concept of talent.

With ERA of both approaching 5.00 looks unlikely they will help before mid year 2026, only if they show improved consistency.
