Who cares. He could visit all day and it wouldn’t change anything.
The better question would be is why is Mikolas on the team?

He convinced Mo that he knew analytics. Just as Girsch and oli did. None of them were qualified. And none are probably in Bloom’s plans.

Ha. What I was thinking.

“ hey, you’re doing great; that’s only three homers in three innings.”

Are these pitchers performing worse than expected? Or, are they just garbage to begin with?

This clown needs to be right next to Oli when both are FIRED at seasons end.

He's brought NOTHING to the Cardinals pitching staff, horrible hire.

Not impressed with pitching coach. Heck not that impressed with hitting coach. In fact not impressed with any coaches. Also the bat boy is on my bad list.

It's hard to coach when you don't have the talent.

I agree but at this point I’m not liking anything about this team.

Why waste the time and energy - even on a short walk?

Several garbage pitchers with little help fixing anything.
