Yeah, obviously that game was a loss without that trade. I take it back Mo, greatest trade ever. Well done.

I'd fire the cards gm no doubt

4 hits thru 10 innings. I guess all us Cards fans should just be so happy.

Meh, I wasn't saying he is some stud but Jesus, if you have been watching the games he has been hitting the ball hard consistently.

I am not a huge fan of any of the trades but its a bit early to be shit canning everything.

Hootie · 08-05-2015, 08:34 PM

I'm being honest. I'd fire mo, matheny, dfa molina, put Martinez in long relief, switch heyward to 3rd base because lefty 3rd baseman are the new trend, and make wong closer ... Asians typically are excellent closers

Mi_chief_fan · 08-05-2015, 08:35 PM

And now, in extra innings, you have 2 guys left in the pen, and you burned your long man. Yep, manager of the year, no doubt.

You are being an ass. No one is saying the Cards are a bad team but if you can't see that this team cannot hit then you are blind.

He isn't one for managing in to extra innings for sure. We could be the day before All Star Break or 1 game after and be out of players in 10 innings.

He doesn't watch the Cards - he's admitted that much. He's only here to troll. But the mods won't do dick about it.

Oh I'm just kidding, bud. I figured since Hamas and DJ know everything about the Royals, I'd check in here to say hello. I won't pretend to know more about the cards than the 3 guys on this board who watch cardinals games =) !

I was OK with the Cishek and Broxton moves, as nothing of value was given up; I still can't get over the fact that Kaminsky was traded and no value was received for him.

Seriously, Dan Johnson was better.

Through 10 innings. Only 4 hits. Against the worst bullpen in the NL. In the best hitters park in the NL.

O.city · 08-05-2015, 08:41 PM

This team strikes out a shitload.
