Pirates at Cards 8/25/2025

[Hoosier59]

Only reason Winn is playing is to hopefully win a Gold Glove. His hitting is non existent! Unless you like K’s and pop ups!

Pages’ new nickname should be “Rally Killer”!

aye.

Give me Bernal full time, Crooks backing him up.....that won't happen, I know....not next year.

But I'm sick of Pages. Not really a fan of Pozo.

Just another worthless pitcher from the system. Rotation and lineup a joke. Time to watch something else. You suck Mo.

They said The team was 10-3 in his starts coming into the game so he’s been doing something right

4.65 ERA. They’ve scored runs for him. It won’t last.

[82birds]

thousands upon thousands of people disguised as red seats.

thousands knew better.

At least we have… well we have almost literally nothing going into 2026
Soft rebuild has yielded maybe Herrera as the lone bright spot with Donovan who we knew.
That’s absolutely all they have

The best player for 2026 may well be our No.1 prospect..JJ
He has a shot at being more productive than any hitter on the 2025 team .
Sad to say that a rookie may be our best hitter but it could prove true for this team.

You could be right

10-3 makes sense. He’s so good he’s done that in 9 starts this season.

[Hoosier59]

Cardinals might hit better if they’d just try swinging at strikes! Just a suggestion.

Fun stat....Burley has 3 XBH this month...1 double, 1 Triple, 1 HR. 20 singles in August.

Power Zapped. He's going to have a good avg for the month, but a .670ish OPS Can't have that in the middle of the order.

If we can get better players next year, I'd like to see Burley 6th or 7th in the lineup. If we don't, I'll know we aren't contending

I know I saw that also what was Brad talking about? Maybe he meant his whole career but I don’t think he even has that many starts his entire career

Unfortunately getting better players hasn’t been a priority lately.

Recent highlights:

Pages strikes out
Church pops out but just far enough to be a SF against one of the worst LF arms in MLB.
Nootbar pops out
Winn pops out
Burleson pops out
Contreras strikes out

Burleson had 6 balls in his at bat and swung at 3 of them.

It appears they have no intention of taking a walk.

Their chase rate is thru the roof

[Colotiger]

Perfect capsule of Cardinals’ offense. Bases loaded, nobody out. One run via sacrifice fly.

[MIDMOBIRDTWO]

Looks like they are all trying to hit a five run home run instead of hitting where it is pitched.

Pozo has had his moments, and it’s a nice human story, but my gosh he swings at every pitch thrown at him and Vlad Guerrero he’s not!
I’m with you, bring up the kids, if nothing else the defense will be stronger.
