Cardinals having a big 8th inning at Wrigley Field today ... good to see, for now.

Will Peralta back? Jesus maybe Sterns is going to do a stealth tank. Only logical explanation.
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.

Back to back weekends of Franco and Herrera morphing into good players against the Brewers. So exciting!

Has any player ever been given a longer leash than Wily? This seems insane.

Having to watch Matt Garza do anything is awful.

Those last two pitches are the only thing you need to show when arguing for auto ball/strike calls instead of umps.

man, this will be 6 straight losses after the break. 2 more @ the Phillies, then 3 @ the Nats, then 3 at home vs the Cubs. The last game of July is July 30 ending the series with the Cubs.

A trade is looking less likely by the day.

Season may have peaked with the Aguilar GS against the Yankees. Been downhill ever since.

Yep. Time to play the young in's. Let's start to get some experience. Call up Brinson. Start Hader. You can't lose. You either lose more and improve your slot position (god that sounds hot). Or you jump start the team and gain valuable experience. Maybe a playoff series (highly doubtful).

Go Crew!

I think Hader's biggest value to us will be in a trade before the prospect shine wears off. I see no way he's a starter.

The lack of contact hitters is catching up to us, it seems.

This team gets struck out double-digits every game nowadays!

Darnell Coles ... teach these guys to choke up and go opposite field with two strikes, please.

Ever since the '82 Brewers came to town,
this team has simply gone down!
This makes me frown!

If he magically learned how to control his stuff he could be a starter, I bet the Cards could shine him up nicely. Until then, hes a 7th/8th inning guy. Kinda reminds me of Wily, pretty damn good stuff but cant control it.
