Hit a solo HR, and then is responsible for 2 or 3 runs scoring.....that's -2.
I love his bat, but that trade off isn't really encouraging.
If Herrera sits, I understand why.

Not looking good, from Boston Ch. 7 weather:
Temperatures are starting off in the 40s, and we’ll stay in the 40s. It’s a dry start under abundant cloud cover.
Scattered showers move in by late morning/midday. Showers continue this afternoon, some moderate rain at times.

I'd have him at DH today, give WIlly a day off
BTW
Who's you #1 RP at AAA/AA you think could be ready and who could replace Fernandez any day?

Herrera’s homer wasn’t a solo shot, it was a three run homer.

I guess Oli isn't as in love with Siani as feared by some.
Baker is looking as a somewhat wasteful roster spot.
Pitching is the hurdle.

The guy should be DHing if not catching. It would only risk losing the DH for the rest
of the game if Pages were injured and WC should be able to emergency catch.

Three Ml level catchers. I’m thinking no scenario will infringe up that too much or often.

Herrera leads the team in homeruns and RBI even though hes started just 5 of the 7 games and oli benches him. Oli is an idiot. It will be a chore for the team to overcome his bad managing this season

We agree.
Roster makeup has been interesting with the Cards for
a while. Compounded when paint by numbers managers are
hired.
Just PH for the pitchers like the old days.

SMH
Honestly I don’t know what Oli is “thinking”??
I see him as being stubborn so once he gets a bug in his head good luck changing it.
Overall I’m encouraged with the bats.
Yes....Herrera should be DH .
I understand wanting to show confidence in Contreras I just worry that he stubbornly sticks to things and won’t change.
Hopefully today is the day Contreras breaks out!

Reminds me of someone else making a massive mistake right now w/tariffs.
