Interesting tidbit I read today.

The NL's overall batting average is .254 the AL's is .253.

The AL is scoring a whopping .2 runs per game more than the NL.

The DH is really making baseball more exciting.

Lefty on the mound.

Moss can't even hit guys he has a platoon advantage against so he damn sure can't hit a good lefty.

Putting Pete out there to cover some ground with Lynn on the hill is probably a good idea. Getting Moss the hell out of the lineup is DEFINITELY a good idea.

And he's clearly very coachable as his entire hitting approach has changed this year allowing him to keep his weight back. He hit a ball 450 feet two games ago

His realistic ceiling is 25 bombs with an OPS around .950 while playing elite defense and stealing bases at a 90% clip

He's a bit of an injury risk and he's 29 ... So unfortunately, his development took too long and it'll probably cost him a fortune
Why can't you post like this all the time?

There are only 11 players in the NL with >.300 average. Does 2015 .280 = 1985 .300?

The interview I heard with Mo it seemed clear that Mo had no intention of giving him a full market deal.

If there was a 'Carlos Martinez Magic Formula' for spotting top of the rotation pitchers, baseball would be a much simpler game.
They will get $127 million more every year starting in 2017. Where do you get that they cant afford anything? The Cardinals can afford a top ten payroll. Thats good enough.

I don't think 1st round picks have the value as they did when Pujols left. Or maybe its our 1st rounders picking at the bottom of the round that don't have the best value.

The Pirates are a damn good team. They have taken a lot of ass whupping from us at Bush. They had to fight back at some point.
