Yeah, but the three losses being against a last place team in which we did not score is awful. You can't dress up that smelly diaper of a series.

45 consecutive innings scoring ZERO runs against NLC opponents. I didn't think that would be possible. Gotta be some kind of a putrid record.

Oli, "we had some decent swings". Note to Oli, no you didn't.

If you asked me right now which I would take:
1) Barely make the playoffs and keep Oli?
Or
2) Barely miss the playoffs and can Oli(and Pop!)?

I vote for #2

I think Cards are sellers! Minors are weak in talent and Lord knows big club is void of MLB players.

He has a common American problem.
He is proud of what he does not know.

It is when all three losses were 3 game shutout sweep against the pirates those are the series you should be taking 2 of 3. Can’t win them all but a sweep is bad

I'm not usually a big "Oli sucks" guy, because he's been given a poor roster in many respects. BUT the fact they've now set up their pitching rotation so that their best pitcher won't face the Cubs twice in a week is gross negligence.

Players determine the outcome the vast majority of the time.
But.....when he is put on the spot and is a position to make a difference he FAILS the vast majority of the time.
If he is the best we can do that is pathetic!

What exactly constitutes a “decent swing”???
I could go up there and take my rips. Would that constitute a decent swing? LOL
