Game start tonight moved up an hour because of rain prediction. My weather app says > 60% chance even with the early change. I hope they have Tom Skilling advising (and not his brother).

Cubs send Jesse Chavez to Braves for lefty Sean Newcomb. It's a fixer up project but hey they needed a lefty in the pen. Newcomb has always had upside because he throws hard and is 10 yrs younger so maybe he can benefit from a change of scenery.

doubt k.thompson will pitch tonight, but if m.leiter doesn't have thompson in his rear view mirror i dunno what to say.

even if he doesn't do well tonight i imagine leiter will get a 3rd start unless it's as terrible as his 1st.

leiter had a great spring, but well, that was spring.  thompson also had a great spring.

It could conceivably be Keegan, but I feel like it's more likely if length is needed, Rucker or Effross will be getting a chance.

It's complicated by the fact that St. John is the only viable MLB pitcher in Iowa on the 40 man, and he threw like 30 pitches last night.

DJL: Locke St. John was optioned to AAA Iowa last Saturday immedaitely after his contract was selected, so he can't be recalled for ten days (until next Tuesday) unless he is replacing a player on the MLB Active List who was placed on an MLB inactive list (IL, Paternity, etc).

    wow, counsell coming with the early lineup.  rarity.

    PCA called up.

    welp...

    bellinger...fractured rib.

    a not-very-ready PCA will probably be called up when it would be much better for him to be in AAA getting regular ABs.

    i have no hard data, but i'm seeing the same thing.

    there used to be some parks where that was rampant (colorado during the todd helton days comes to mind), but i'm seeing it all over the place the past couple seasons.

    I’ll spare the details which I’ve stated before but, in short, the Cardinals have lost their sight of their successful identity and strategy over last several dominant decades. From the beginning of the season I saw the Cardinals being in last place or near it again this year, and my prediction is that Mozeliak will be gone after the end of the season.

    I would have kept Cooper rather than Wisdom, but at least I can understand why they did it.  In a team that lacks dominant power hitters, Wisdom can be a dominant power hitter, at least in streaks.  I suppose that there is always the possibility that the streaks longer in both duration and frequency.  I will be content if they essentially make a 100 % DH commitment to Mervis against righties and Wisdom against lefties.  When a regular needs rest, give them total rest, rather than a DH rest.  Do this for at least 2 months, and then re-evaluate at that point.

    This is Cubs adjacent but…


    Jordan Walker just was optioned by the deadbirds. For all the talk of the Cardinals development machine, they’ve really missed on a lot of can’t miss superstars lately. Walker has struggled. Gorman has been okay. They’re already trying to push Carlson out the door. Their pitching system has been so bad they had to go out and sign basically a full rotation over the last two offseasons.

    They’ve still developed a few of those pesky solid players, like Donovan, Edman, and Nootbaar. Their two best prospect to MLB players have been Adolis and Arozarena, neither of which is a cardinal.

    I hope they never figure it out again. Cardinal failure brings me such joy.

    Thank you so much! I really appreciate not only all your posts but how eager you are to respond to our questions.

    Is it just me or does it seem that official scorers are becoming less likely to call a misplay an error? 

     

    Guess I've hit my cranky old-man phase in life.  "I remember back in the day when an error was an error.  Official scorers have gone soft.  Now where did I put my readers?!!??"

     

    Sidenote, maybe Bellinger should be a little more careful against the Astros.  That was the series last year that a play at wall put him on the IL.

    i hated the almonte pickup, but he's 9-10 out of 12 for good outings, following a great spring.  hope he can keep it up.

    i already miss cooper, but yeah...the thin OF roster backup the team seems to want to carry probably got wisdom preference over cooper.  i could live without seeing wisdom at 3rd unless it's a blowout, though.
