Updated plans on STLtoday site:

Cards to kneel — and then stand
Shildt said the Cardinals may well take a knee for a moment of silence and then stand for the anthem. “There’s clarity as to what we’re going to do. We do understand that the anthem is a sacred thing. And the flag is a very sacred thing. We respect that, of course, and will respect it," Shildt said.

“If we do something in a moment of silence and kneel prior to that, that’s totally different and separate from the anthem which we’ll respect and stand for.

“Our guys are ready. Their heads are in the right place. They’re looking for a peaceful way to bring a little more awareness to something that’s taken place for generations in our country.”

If they play like they played last year (the far more likely scenario), it's gonna be average on its good days and a complete skid-mark on occasion.

you think the trio in the outfield will only get a week to prove they are an everyday outfielder or else Carlson takes their place? Well Bader and O’Neill anyway. Fowler could hit .200 all 60 games and still start.

Flaherty looks dominate in the first inning. Fowler catches a lazy fly ball for the 3rd out. Immediately turns around to throw the ball into the stands for a souvenir. Not in 2020

I don’t see allowing them to struggle for only a week, but Carlson will get his opportunity.

first AB’s O’Neill muscles out a HR. Bader looked lost and SO looking on something he could have crushed but got fooled. Can O’neill or Carlson play CF regularly?

Yes, both could capably handle CF

As can Thomas, IIRC

‘Capably’ is doing a fair amount of work there.

None of them would be truly good out there. Thomas is probably as close to a true CF as there is in that lot and he could probably be a little above league average.

Kim was fantastic last outing. Difference this time was he didn’t get that slider down and in enough. Maybe in the Korea league you can get away with that but in MLB they almost always make you pay if you miss your spot.

9-1 win today. Offense galore late. Pirates are a triple A club, but any win by waino this year is a huge plus.

Hope Hudson can put a nail in their coffin tomorrow.
