GDT : Cards vs. Mets (5/4) ~ Game 1 ~ 12:15pm CDT

[sikeston bulldog2]

Cloudy and 55 currently. Showers around later. High 59. A raw day in the Lou.

Oh stop. It's a beautiful day downtown with even sunnier skies out west. There's not a drop of rain in the forecast today.

I love these temps but the young guns sure could use some warm-air lift that apparently won't be around for at least a few weeks.

1:00 pm
Cloudy
58°
with 13 mph wind.

High of 60.

Not exactly a great day to be sitting in the stands.

Yuck

Cut off low moving wsw. Rain band slowly moves in. Could see showers off and on during game two. Cool. 57 now.

Great so they sit one of the hottest hitters we have and in his lineup spot put Burleson

Who is that? The one with back issues? Probably needs a rest so he doesn't get a spasm

#STLCards manager Oli Marmol said that SS Masyn Winn was being given one of today's games off as a precautionary measure to protect his back. He is out of Game 1, but will start Game 2.

Who'd a thunk it

Thanks, Crav.
A domani.

Who'd a think it

Interesting that Oli is 'sitting' Winn in Game 1 and playing him in Game 2 . If Oli reversed it and Masyn went 3 for 4 with a HR in Game 1 leading the team to a win, then Oli would be crticized for ' sitting him' in Game 2. Pretty sneaky plan by Oli ! Some of us see through it though.

How does sitting out three more hours, then play, protection? Is the back acting up? I get maybe not play both games, but why game one. Makes no Sikeston sense.

Or given Pallante's high groundball rate he wants Winn at SS w/him on the mound?

[sikeston bulldog2]

The edge of the rain is about Vandalia. Anyone know how far that is from downtown?

Maybe moving him up in line up will help. Different purpose. Different focus. Maybe? Yea I don’t believe it either.

That’s a very strategic thought.

No rain forecasted for metro BDog...there is a better chance of rain closer to central Illinois.

LoL. I thought CT thought he was an idiot...which is it?

Why would you play back spasms in the early game vs letting him get a good rub n stretch for the later game?

[82birds]

per Chip, the Mets have lost game 34 of their last 15 seasons.
this game is their 34th


Lindor leadoff SO

[scoutyjones2]

Polar double...does that make it bipolar

Another double...definitely bipolar.

Down 1 already, Fedde

[82birds]

Soto warning track power
er..wall power
LOL
that probably would have out of several big league parks

[82birds]

LOL
after the leadoff SO, 3 straight balls barreled off the bat at great EV and length
