The Cardinals offense is not very good. Budaska was the scapegoat apparently but whether it’s the hittting philosophy, the players, or both ... it’s not working.

The pitching has been better, of course the recent competition has been lackluster.

It things like Goldshmidt taking a perfect pitch for a called 3rd strike with the bases loaded. Whoever got him to do THAT is the one that needs to be fired.

Also, what was the deal with people howling like jackals at the Reds stadium tonight? (I remember MY first beer)

Tonight, Gray pitched like a guy who'd heard the Cards were interested in him while he was with the Yankees, but passed...

And it was a bomb. Phillies scored 6 in the bottom of the 9th.

I was pleased because I feared for fans' lives.

I learned a valuable lesson: sometimes, you can use a paper towel five times at a slaughterhouse.
