What's this? A GDT?!? Be still, my beating heart.
Put me in, Coach - I'm ready to play today!

When the Cardinals open Grapefruit League play on Saturday against the Marlins in Jupiter, Fla., Miles Mikolas and Jack Flaherty will be their first two pitchers, in that order.
Both right-handers will be working on a pitch count rather than set number of innings and will throw approximately 40 pitches, according to Cardinals manager Mike Shildt.
Mikolas appears to be in line as the Opening Day starter, while Flaherty could be in position to start the second game of the season. Shildt said he would make an official announcement on Saturday.
Expect to see Kolten Wong, Paul DeJong, Harrison Bader and Jose Martinez (right field) in the lineup against the Marlins, while Paul Goldschmidt, Matt Carpenter and Dexter Fowler will likely make their debuts on Sunday.
Not quite ready to return to the lineup as an outfielder, Marcell Ozuna will be in the Cardinals' lineup on Saturday as the designated hitter.
St. Louis' left fielder continues to progress from offseason surgery on his right shoulder. His status for a return to outfield duty is still in question, but progress is being made towards that.
“His progress has been really positive,” said Shildt, who expects Ozuna to be ready for the start of the regular season.

That's some classic Shlabotnik to start off the GDTs right.Joe Shlabotnik wrote:What's this? A GDT?!? Be still, my beating heart.

I'll be flying in a silver bird high above the clouds when the first Spring Training game starts off...y'all can let me know how it goes.

Alcantara is playing and Ozuna is not. Clearly the marlins won the trade.
Seriously though, I’m interested to see if alcantara has found any control.

DH isn’t even a real position in the NL yet.
