Hopefully these guys get well at the hitter friendly Chase Field and the mile high air of Coors Field!

Given how well they've hit on the road this season (#2 in MLB in runs scored/game) this could be a fun trip! :D

I saw on sports central they said gorman between Memphis and the majors has struck out 58 times in his last 108 at bats now that’s some unicorn numbers there
In a small defense, he wasn't sent to Memphis to keep doing the same thing. I would hope he is trying different approaches and swings. Doesn't look good, but surprise seasons and turnarounds happen in MLB.

Ah, the cure for a slump buster, a trip to the mile high. Hmm, my wife and I are going out West in August including Denver.

Maybe there's hope I can break my slump.

Cardinals play in Denver over labor day weekend. Hopefully the bats aren't still slumping by then

If they still are slumping, well, wait till next year, but I think the Cards offense is due to pick it up very soon.
Thanks for the info though, although we're going to be out there more mid-August. Picking up another couple from near Omaha and we've let them do the most the planning, as they travel a lot. He's mainly an Angels fan, with his 2nd fav team the Royals ............... should be fun.

I like Colorado though. Coors is also pretty nice

Did anyone notice the one player I did not list?

Jordan Walker
Since July 1st: 15 for 44, .341/.434/.682/1.116

Jordan has reached base safely in 18 straight games, including in all 13 games in July

Jordan has been great, but literally everyone else on the team has been slumping lately. Maybe the coaching staff needs to adjust?
