They may lead the MLB in chasing balls out of the strike zone. That was abundantly clear in the cub series.

There are just no guys in the minors that can come up and replace or do better than what the team has right now. Anyone Bloom can trade away is only going to bring back prospects. We just have to endure and get to the lockout and hope for the best. This current team however with Marmol and crew as manager is not making a playoff this year. Personally I am rooting for the draft pick.
With respect, Mike, personally, I am rooting for the club to be sold to ownership that wants to win.

EXCELLENT! And the Oil Cans were actually beer cans in Louisiana dialect.

I used to like Chip more, but the act is getting on my nerves. BT never has been much more than a cheerleader. It’s obvious chip enjoys the distraction BT offers and it’s getting old. Chip is a better pbp with Sweeney. But no need to get in the way of the middle school humor crew. Good Lord, has Cardinals baseball on ALL fronts imploded. Way to go ownership ! You KILLED the goose that laid the golden egg ! Unforgivable.

Watched on mlb network and the Toronto guys are great. All baseball, no [nonsense], no stupid interviews. I forgot how good announcers can be. No excuse for the clowns we have.
Professional broadcast crew in Toronto with Dan Schulman as BPB

Cards telecasts are turning into Hot Yoga takes. It is indeed Sad how the standard has fallen for this franchise.

Is it any surprise to anyone that when the game was handed to the bullpen, tied in the 7th, that the Jays would win?
There was no doubt in my mind

Partly. But you still aren't going to win games when you only score one.

I really think there should be a magnifying glass on Brown. The same thing happened last year. Couldn't string hits together and the hitting kept falling apart faster than a cheap suit, especially with RISP.

Agree. And yet we are supposed to be serious WS contenders by 2028? This roster?

I have zero faith in ownership. Zero. And that lack of trust they have earned many times over. Not impressed with this roster. Why would ownership change it when they can continue to cry poor and get away with it?

Walker ain't hitting. He's flailing. K'Ing like crazy. Down to a 830 OPS
Still the team's rbi leader.
Prettiest pig in the sty. JW had a 60 game heater to start the year. Now he's crashing back to earth. It happens
Amongst NL rbi leaders.
