He just sucks so bad and has for years.
How many games this year have the Cardinals played short handed? Arenado, Donovan, Herrera, Contreras, etc….
Now it’s O’Brien, and the bullpen is already worn out! Penny pinching at its best!

Why? Church does not appear as if he can hit.

I bet many of the recent call-ups would be more than happy to go back to Memphis.

Agree on the utility role.
He reminds me of a hockey goalie playing the infield!
Utility players should at least having above average glove.

Don’t know how he fared defensively in the Minors?
Shaky so far to say the least.

Yeah, but just think about how good he's gonna feel sitting on that bench today.

For realsies, though, Pages has been pulling his weight, which can't be easy to do...
Pages and Crooks need to split time in September. 64-40 at least.
I'm hoping Walker and Gorman take 40/64 and split.
Hahahaha

IMO Church takes better ABs and even though his average is low he has had some hard contact and has hit into some tough luck. He covers just as much ground and has a stronger throwing arm.

All that being said, our outfield production has been poor for years. If there is a priority need, more production from our outfield is a necessity.

Well, to be fair, a sweep is still possible.
