It's not on the manager. These aren't new found situations the Cardinals players find themselves in. They've been taught this shit since little league.

Why wasn’t Bowman fired along with Matheny? They could go on a church mission together.

Come from behind win? It was the 5th inning you reeruns.

Team A scores 1 run in top of the 1st
Team B scores 2 runs in bottom of 1st

ESPN logic = what a miraculous comeback.

DFA Fowler, send Bowman to Palm Beach.

Hopefully a five game sweep and that turd Mo gets the boot too

George Liquor · 07-19-2018, 10:18 PM

So the team still isn't worth watching? Haven't watched a game since they got swept by ATL.

Pasta Little Brioni · 07-20-2018, 12:01 AM

Same terrible errors and mental mistakes...

Overall, it was a good first game.

2nd game not so much. It's way too high of a bar to expect any person to immediately fix the mental errors, base running blunders and lackadaisical play. How was he supposed to fix Pham's BS plays from last night with one game of managing?

They have played this way for 2.5 years. There is not a chance in hell that he's not better than Matheny. A fencepost would be better.

Who here thought that Dewitt would pull the trigger on firing Matheny in mid-season? Now we have a chance to see what effect Schildt has on the team by the end of the season. No idea if he is the real deal. We will find out. If not, we have not fallen so far that we cant land a top manager in the off season.

Pasta Little Brioni · 07-20-2018, 07:15 AM

I'm not blaming him. Blame the GM that built this.

I went around pissed off about Matheny for years. I dont have the same level of hate for Mo. Mo aint going nowhere. Thats just the fact. If the next manager fails, then he's out.

I hope the next manager doesn't fail. I'm tired of watching my team play crappy baseball. That means Mo stays.

Pasta Little Brioni · 07-20-2018, 07:24 AM

Building a roster counting on a guy like Pham (that should be a platoon guy) in the TWO spot is a disaster...and I said this before the season. Nice bullpen too...

Marco Polo · 07-20-2018, 07:37 AM

Mo has not taken the idea of trading Carlos Martinez off the table. What are your thoughts? Would you package Carlos and include Fowler for salary relief in a deal?

reading all the rumors that the Yankees love him. If we can get Torres+ some other low level prospects with high upsides, how do you not consider that deal?
