****Official 2014 STL Cardinals thread ****
2011 WS Championship
2012 one win from another WS
2013 two wins from another WS title
2014?
  • This is a franchise that has made the postseason 10 times in the last 14 seasons.
  • Reached three World Series in the last decade, and won as many championships (two) the past eight seasons as it did from 1965 to 2005.
  • Our new Manager has more post season experience than any other manager in baseball, except the Giants manager.
  • Three million attendance? Take it to the bank.
  • 60 post season wins since 2004. 20+ wins more than any other team.
  • Only one of the last 14 seasons has been a losing one.

Just blew a tag on a stolen base when the ball beat the runner by a mile.

Sloppy shitty baseball and a complete lack of hitting with RISP.

Frustrating.

I don't understand why this team cannot hit?

Am I just stupid?

Outside of Borjous and Wong this looked like a salty lineup at the beginning of the season.

In fairness it's been 20 games. Still, I'm not a big fan of them turning into nothing but slap hitters.

If you want to get the Cardinals out just pitch inside. No one is willing/able to turn on a pitch, and when they get jammed trying to inside out it, a bunch of feeble flares result.

I know it's only been 20 games, but not hitting plagued us last season in the WS.

In all fairness, I still think we will win the NL central. This offense just leaves me scratching my head sometimes.

The Cardinals scored 77 more runs than any other team in the NL last year.

Now, part of that was due to aberrational hitting with RISP, but they were still an excellent offense. What hurts them is the need to string together multiple hits to plate runs because they lack almost all power.

Allen Craig needs to be hitting 25 HR a year, not 13, and Adams and Holliday need to be at/around 30.

I got to thinking and you're right. That's why I edited my comment. I forgot that we destroyed the record for hitting with RISP last season.

I'm hoping Holiday will heat up as the weather does. He is typically that kind of hitter, no?

Not really. Was last year, but his month-month splits are within a normal range, save for July

Saw the graphic that he swings on 51% of first pitches. Why throw him a strike? He'll just pop up or hit a weak grounder.

To be fair, way too many Cardinal hitters are taking bad at bats.

I'm getting real sick of seeing Robinson take those late in the game PH at bats. He has never done shit to warrant a free ride. We have Butler who is hitting .400 with power. Why not call him up? We picked him up off the waiver wire, he's no prized prospect.

He's not on the 40 man, so you have to outright someone in order for that to go down.

We could let Kosma go. If someone did pick him up it would probably be best for both parties.

Robinson has no value. Send him packing. We are not putting our best team out there to win. Robinson isn't our future. If Butler doesn't produce at the big show level then we are not any worse off than we are now with Robinson taking those AB's.

What about letting Taveras take Robinson's at bats? That would make sense to me seeing as how we need a power bat and I've seen him labeled as a "Vlad Guerrero" type ceiling.

Do you want someone that young playing one quarter time? He's not going to reach his ceiling on the bench. And while I am no huge Robinson fan, I'd rather move Jay, who is still overrated and has some trade value.
