They absolutely gave away Game 1. Russell swinging at ball 4 when Rosenthal couldn't find the strike zone with a flashlight and a map; Coghlan not going to second as the trail runner after the Cards got damn lucky that Yadi's laziness was overcome by a fortuitously place foot by the umpire (or Almora's into 3rd easily). Game 2 was legit; Cardinals just won that one. Game 3 was pretty heinous baseball by Chicago. They mis-played 3 balls that led directly to runs and ended up getting Arrieta chased a full inning earlier (and probably 2). Now granted, the Cards were opportunistic and sound in game 3, but that game's probably still going if Rizzo or Bryant played halfway decent defensive games. The Cubs just weren't sharp in this series. It could have very easily ended up 1-2 against but/for some miscues that the Cubs simply haven't been making this year.

our starting pitching, hitting, defense, relievers and base running were better. We were clearly the better team for those 3 days.

Matheny gets bailed out of terrible managing by a terrible bullpen.

Ladies and Gentleman: Mike ****ing Matheny.
Just happy to be here.... Guy spent the entire evening trying to lose that game and finally found a player willing to oblige him.

I didn't watch the game, just checked in on my phone so I have no real idea about Matheny. But damn, got your closer a 2 run lead in the 9th....I'd say that's on your closer

Rosenthal is a Section 8. It's too bad we couldn't have traded him when he had some value.
Relief pitchers and kickers are the most worthless mother****ers in sports.

Here is the million dollar question.....How many games do we have to needlessly lose before WLR makes a change at closer? I say 8 more minimum.
Oh should be the closer, hands down. It's not even a debate. Siegrist can handle setup and Rosenthal can go see a sports psychiatrist or get on a bus to memphis. |

24 innings pitched with an ERA of 5.62 and a WHIP of 2.04. Yeah he is definitely broken.
