How Many HR does Murph need to hit this series
for the High IQ dynamic duo in the dugout to strongly express to their pitchers to not throw any RED MEAT to him??
Re: How Many HR does Murph need to hit this series
Even if it’s a mistake pitch….there should be no way no how the meatball like that was thrown to him in that situation. And yes hit the guy. Have many dongers has he hit??
This is some of the stupidest managing/players I’ve seen in my life. Some of the dumbest Cards baseball on the field in 50yrs watching
And there are goobers who log in here and say don’t criticize……as they seem to find new ways to lose…..

Sure, a little chin music. He has an opportunity to get out of the way. Gibson did this MAYS…..Willie Mays….and he knew it would be coming. Perhaps they don’t dig in so comfortably next AB45s wrote: ↑12 Jul 2025 17:39 pmSo…..cards can’t make good pitches……so they hit the guy…Goldfan wrote: ↑12 Jul 2025 16:51 pmEven if it’s a mistake pitch….there should be no way no how the meatball like that was thrown to him in that situation.

He needs to get drilled in the back for mocking the bird flapping during his HR Friday.

I fail to see how the manager is to blame for meatballs thrown by the pitcher.Goldfan wrote: ↑12 Jul 2025 17:04 pmLet’s keep teeing it up right over middle of plate……especially in late innings with a slim leadcardstatman wrote: ↑12 Jul 2025 16:56 pm 5 HR and 10 RBI in 5 games so far against STL.

Re: How Many HR does Murph need to hit this series
You think that if the order came from the dugout to NOT give Murph anything to hit that a control pitcher like Maton wouldn’t be able to keep a meatball from the center of the plate? I get that he missed, but he sure wasn’t throwing off either side of platescoutyjones2 wrote: ↑12 Jul 2025 21:18 pmI fail to see how the manager is to blame for meatballs thrown by the pitcher.Goldfan wrote: ↑12 Jul 2025 17:04 pmLet’s keep teeing it up right over middle of plate……especially in late innings with a slim leadcardstatman wrote: ↑12 Jul 2025 16:56 pm 5 HR and 10 RBI in 5 games so far against STL.

It didn't happen after Skenes plunked WC. It won't happen now. We want robots to play, not men. WC has too much passion to fit the mold.
