I read Goold said in his chat that Liberatore and Gorman could be here in 2021. Gorman starting 3B. Is this just more front office pumping out propaganda to a friendly “journalist”? Or are they progressing a year ahead of schedule?

Carlson, Gorman, and Liberatore- some good young talent that could be cornerstones for the future. Let's hope they develop.

Nolan Gorman would get eviscerated at this level. I mean just abused. Dude would bat .200 w/ 215 strikeouts and 15 homeruns he hit in blowouts off mopup relievers. I honestly think he's at least 2 more years away and potentially 3 after losing this season of development. Maybe they're seeing something in these camps that's changed, but based on anything we've seen thus far, he's a mistake hitter with massive holes in his swing (with solid pitch recognition but against really raw arms). Liberatore, OTOH, I could see starting games for us at some point next season. He'd also have to explode through the system but w/ the leverage he can get on his pitches and the life he has on his fastball, he's the kind of guy that can move quickly if his mechanics lock in and his body matures. If he's suddenly working at 96 and has developed enough consistency to really stay on top of his breaking pitches, he could rocket through the system and w/ an injury or two, end up making that jump from AA to the majors that you'll see with some really polished prospects.

When are they going to fire "BT"? Games are simply unlistenable with him and drunk Dan

Friday night with Horton he was OBVIOUSLY hammered. Kept telling the Holliday/Hayes story and doing a god-awful impression of...something. I've been listening to the Royals broadcast this week because Dan's obviously back on the sauce. And with Edmonds on, I can tolerate drunk Dan. But when it's Dan up there with Horton or worse, Butters, it's just intolerable.

He laughed for the entire half inning when Fredbird was ironing his jerseys out in Big Mac Land.

He's been really bad. I truly think he's drinking again.

The inheritors of Jack Buck and Harry Carey legacy are for shit. Edmonds is the only announcer worth a crap. The rest are trash.

I'm going to make Butters a thing outside of my Cardinals board.
He got that nickname over there probably 15 years ago when Anthony Reyes kept getting starts despite being bombed and all Brad Thompson ever did was get ****ed around despite far better results in the minors and majors. So it became a gag about the episode where Butters Stotch from South Park was at the NAMBLA meeting just constantly at risk of getting nailed. Mostly just a joke about Thompson getting butt-****ed pretty routinely by the organization. And thus the most absurd yet fitting nickname was born. My buddies call him Butters as well and have no idea why. You don't have to know why - it's just a perfect damn nickname for that goof.
