suzuki not being timid in RF is on my 2023 wish list.

all season there has been terrible IF/OF communication on popups and a lack of taking charge by the guys with the play in front of them.

evidently franmil will be around in 2023.

i mean, okay...i guess.  throws a hell of a lot of water on a possible contreras signing.

pat hughes and steve stone finalists for the ford frick award.  both are overdue.

i'm not a stone fan, but dude is chicago baseball royalty.  played for both teams (1973-1978), announced for both teams (1983-present), and in 2005-2007 (between chicago announcing gigs) he was doing chicago-based baseball talk shows on WSCR.  that's 45 years of chicago baseball.

Not terribly fun to finish 14 games under .500, but overall I'm pretty encouraged by the progress of the prospects and the MLB starting pitching, and looking forward to seeing what improvements they make this offseason!

the need for power bats who can also get on base when they're not hitting doubles/homers and where to actually put them when the biggest holes on the team are 1st, 3rd, and CF is an interesting problem.  having a bunch of contact hitting, lower ob% hitters with guys like f.reyes and p.wisdom isn't dependable enough to get things done.

having all these stellar, young, SP options with backups to those options is...i dunno how to handle this.

straight up haven't been as excited about a youth pitching core since wood, prior, and zambrano.  if they choose to trade any of them away for other parts, i really want thompson/steele/wessneski to stick around.

    Craig Counsell doesn’t have a timetable for Cody Bellinger who technically has two cracked ribs on his right side. CT scan showed it today.

    Thought it might have been David Peralta given the open 40 man spot and how PCA has played so far.

    I hope they keep Mozeliak a few more years. Marmol too!

  • crunch (view)

    wow, counsell coming with the early lineup.  rarity.

    PCA called up.

  • crunch (view)

    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.
