Who was sent out?

Prieto

That makes sense. Prieto just used up his annual hit quota.

He's batting fifth today and playing LF.

Good. I'd play him every day until he shows signs he's lost confidence or not willing to work at it. This season means nothing. Let him learn.

Coming up now won't affect his rookie eligibility so now is the time.

He has to play every day though Oli. Not like Velasquez or one of those.

Have to manage to the 130 at-bats though as well. They'll give him "off days" to make sure he doesn't exceed that mark.

It’s a shame he’s blocked by Fermin.

Not for long after today. Amazing.

There have always been players called a Cardinal Killer, or a Cub killer, etc. Baez might as well be the Cub Executioner.

Firmly tied for 442nd on the Cardinals all-time HR list. Sits 1 behind Nick Stavinoha and Bo Hart - 1 ahead of John Gall and Brian Barton

Took him 3 ABs to overtake Gall & Barton.

So has he done anything interesting yet?

Not since Saturday - the bum.
