I wonder why the mods don’t step in on this with Shady. I don’t care if he’s posting baseball or not. He’s clearly trolling by posting the same exact topic over and over and over. And very rarely if ever does he get anything other than responses essentially telling him to F off.

They practically s**t their pants with anything even closely related to “the p word” talk. Yet do nothing in these instances that are just as unproductive and chaotic.

Makes no sense.

You guys gripe and gripe. But NEVER post anything creative, Cardinals' baseball-wise.
And your post are creative? This is same post as yesterday just said a different way.
So what? Ignore if it it bothers you.

Wrong! I care! I think Shady should post a thread every day that has his complete list of current foes. I’m always on the edge of my seat waiting to see who he foe’s next.
Don't wait. You are a jerk. You're done. Add foe you are.

Meh. I truly don’t think Shady is trolling. And there isn’t a rule against repetitive posting or even annoying other posters as long as there isn’t obvious intention to annoy or malice.

Me?!? This is my first trip to the foe list I do believe. I feel special.

By the way, if I’m foe-worthy you must be pretty thin skinned. I’ve indulged you in several conversations lately and over the years. Even when I’ve given you cr@p Ive been civil.

I would say that when you post something. Get heat for posting it. And continuing to do so after is obvious intent. It’s not like nobody is making it abundantly clear he’s annoying. But it never stops him. So either we have a case of “ten second tom” or he’s just looking to p*** people off

There’s a difference between knowing something will probably annoy people and posting specifically to annoy people.

Shady posts because he wants to have conversations. He knows people will be annoyed, but I think he convinces himself the annoyed bunch are in the minority and there is a silent majority who really enjoy his thoughts and even hold them in high regard.

And now he's spamming the Mizzou board.
He wants Wetherholt to play QB?
I see him playing both sides of the ball…

QB and free safety…

Quite an athlete…

Bloom's offseason starting point... I hope he wheels and deals and shakes things up more than the below shows.
  1. Starless team means everyone gets one game off every week... in addition to team off days... keep them fresh
  2. Walker goes to AAA for the entire season to work on becoming a decent MLB baseball player. Replace with a RH FA OF. (upgrade)
  3. Gorman gets traded due a glut of infielders and a glut of LH hitters. No room for him when Wetherholt arrives. (upgrade)
  4. Pozo gets traded due to a glut of catchers. Crooks arrives (upgrade)
  5. Keep Arenado and Contreras; can't afford to lose a RH bat. Gorman cannot play 3B but Donovan could.
  6. Teams needs to add a RH outfielder via free agency for 2026. In 2027, this could be Joshua Baez.
Distribution of starts by position
C Crooks 81, Pages 81 (Injury depth: Herrera)
1B Contreras 135, Donovan 27 (Injury depth: Burleson)
2B Wetherholt 108, Donovan 54 (Injury depth: Prieto)
SS Winn 135, Wetherholt 27 (Injury depth: Saggese)
3B Arenado 135, Donovan 27 (Injury depth: Prieto)
LF Burleson 108, Donovan 27, Nootbar 27
CF Scott 108, Church 54
RF Nootbar 108, Church 54
DH Herrera 135, Burleson 27

Distribution of starts by player
135 starts for Contreras, Wetherholt, Winn, Arenado, Burleson, Nootbar, Herrera, Donovan
108 starts for Scott, Church
81 starts for Crooks, Pages
New RH outfielder steals 45 starts from above outfielders against LHP. Also, can PH against LHP late in other games.
  1. Goodbye to Fedde via past trade; hello McGreevy (upgrade)
  2. Goodbye to Mikolas as a FA; hello Mathews (upgrade)
  3. Goodbye to Helsley via past trade; hello Fernandez (downgrade)
  4. Goodbye to Maton via past trade; hello Granillo (downgrade)
  5. Goodbye to Matz via past trade; hello Alcala or Graceffo (downgrade)
  6. Goodbye to King via future trade; hello Veneziano (upgrade?)
  7. Some obvious downgrades above so add 2 free agent relievers and push a couple of relievers above down to AAA as depth.
  8. Add a FA starting pitcher. Injuries happen and the Cards don't have depth until all the AA LH starters are ready for MLB later in 2026.
SP Gray, Mathews, Liberatore, McGreevy, Pallante
RP Leahy, Romero, Svanson, O'Brien, Granillo, Alcala, Fernandez, Veneziano, Graceffo

THANK YOU, Juan!!! I totally agree.
I’m sick and tired of Mozo the Clown playing guys out of position. Make it end NOW!!

Especially when he just lifts thoughts from other posters which he's been doing for years.

Pretty sure there have been more than a few posters suggest this.
