Or you just griping.Dicktar2023 wrote: ↑18 May 2025 13:14 pmNA hitting 4th is not "full throttle." It's Marmol scratching his pathological OCD itch to see "L/R/L/R" on the lineup card.
Our wonderful cleanup hitter. But Contreras does no better. Both K.
Really poor AB. Knows ump is giving outside pitch after first two strikes, takes third one in same place. Pitch Cards outside and you can be effective.
Extra innings would be even more spectacular. Bases loaded grand slam ! OK getting carried away .. Rather win the game in 9 instead of going extra. One thing we won't see for sure .. No Cardinal can get a walk off game winner ! Visiting teams can't do that !sikeston bulldog2 wrote: ↑18 May 2025 13:14 pmBasically the exact scenario I had in mind. Maybe extras innings heroics.ramfandan wrote: ↑18 May 2025 13:08 pmI was thinking the same thing earlier when I saw Walker wasn't starting . Watch there is a situation in the top of the 8th with multiple runners on base and Oli pinch hits Walker for Burly ...gets RBI's and then in bottom of 8th he goes to RF as Noot scoots over the LF replacing Burly defensively.sikeston bulldog2 wrote: ↑18 May 2025 13:02 pmI bet he pinch hits and stays in to finish the game.moose-and-squirrel wrote: ↑18 May 2025 13:01 pmwhat he mostly needs is to be put in the best situations to succeed and gain confidence. Oli is doing the right thing here.. much to the chagrin of many on heresikeston bulldog2 wrote: ↑18 May 2025 12:57 pmYou know this. You played. You have a big game, you come to the park with a different attitude. Maybe he is ready to click. I try to build on that. The kid needs anything right now. For Walker, yes, he’s hot- ha. That’s how low he has been.scoutyjones2 wrote: ↑18 May 2025 12:31 pmHot hand? LMAO. Blind squirrelsikeston bulldog2 wrote: ↑18 May 2025 10:17 amAll this talk Oli has learned? Dude just got a shot of momentum, and you cool him down/ huge strategy mistake. Never sit a hot hand.OldRed wrote: ↑18 May 2025 10:13 amSo, Walker drives in the winning run and then sits? How many at bats has Gorman gotten in the last 10 days?craviduce wrote: ↑18 May 2025 10:11 am CARDINALS (26-20)
