IMO they should remove Scott and get his ankle xrayed

We've had a number of hitting coaches and none were able to get these sad sacks to hit. I'm not sure anyone could get Walker, Gorman, Noot, and Scott to ever be able to improve.

They can't because they are trying to save money by not using the IL even though they have 2 injured players.

Scott's ankle looked good on that catch, I'm happy to say

Walker has clearly improved this year with the changed stance. Gorman is Bader except he can’t field. Noot hasn’t had his career year, yet (IMO Gorman has). Scott needs to flatten his swing and learn to drag bunt. If Scott can hit 260 with a 350 ops, he’s a valuable player.

He should have to pitch the whole game. Only way he can earn his bloated salary is by saving the bullpen.
But people love to make excuses for the guy that he doesn't like to pitch in hot weather. Remind me what season baseball is played in.
Yes. A very high percentage of St Louis summers is 90 degrees plus.
