Opening Day 2025, 11am. If anyone wants to see images I might take a few. Office wasn't down here until June last season so it's kind of a cool, new experience for me.
Heck Yeah, keep'em coming.
Helps with the experience for those of us 200 miles away.

Hope they're right but KMOV is just down from the stadium, no rain or storms forecast after 3 pm.

Thanks 'duce.
Beware Larnach - 2-3 with 2 hr off Gray in the past
Bet Larnach to go deep on FanDuel
Serve one up Sonny
But go Cards!

I didn't even notice Bader in their lineup! He'll probably kill us.

Its both hilarious and sad that Donovan is our 3 hitter.
Worse 3 hitter in the league?
I don't know, Tommy Herr did just fine in that spot a few years ago.

Oli still hasn't learned how to set a lineup.
1. Lars Nootbaar (L) ~ LF
2. Brendan Donovan (L) ~ 2B
3. Willson Contreras (R) ~ 1B
4. Ivan Herrera (R) ~ C
5. Alec Burleson (L) ~ DH
6. Nolan Arenado (R) - 3B
7. Jordan Walker (R) ~ RF
8. Victor Scott (L) - CF
9. Masyn Winn (R) - SS
Hey, I’ll give him credit for putting Noot back at leadoff where he should be

At least he has Noot, Donovan, and Contreras in the top 3 names, just the last 2 being flipped. Herrera should definitely be in the top 4 or 5 hitters though, I completely agree. Really it’s a lineup that I can’t complain too much about, which is a great improvement over last year.
Agree,
IF it is seen as #8 and #9 are actually secondary leadoffs it can be the preferred lineup.
What I don't think works well is VS, LN, & BD being stacked. #9, #1 and #2. It allows for a LH RP to neutralize the lineup before WC later
in games without anyone on the bench to take the positions those players play.

Donovan was one of our best clutch hitters last season, and also with runners in scoring position. He will do well there if he just tries to be himself. If he seeks homers, it will be bad!

lol, no one knew for sure but...
the consensus is most likely lights that hang somewhere in the stadium and they wanted to test them out at ground level so if there were an issue they wouldn't have to be put up and then brought back down, then put up again etc etc etc

This will be my 4th opening day in a row attending.
Landing my Cessna in downtown Saint Louis in 20 minutes.
Can’t wait!
Go cards!
