Is he ever - guy is just in a bad place it seems. Sac fly early on, but aside from that he’s been rough to watch tonight. They razz him pretty good at Busch stadium, so it seems like he’s trying too hard rather than just being the player we know he is.

Coomer spent a good minute on Happ's defense in LF and what a good job he did getting the ball in quickly and no one told him Conforto is playing LF. I love Cubs radio

[Dfan25]

I just don’t see how Holby Milner is going to make it back after the deadline

I know baseball is full of rednecks, but got DAM do the Cardinals trot out a parade of Morgan Wallen-looking mutherfukers every night

There are four requirements to be a redneck.😁

1. Love baseball
2. Love fishing
3. Love country music
4. Drive a pickup truck

Rea pitched very well tonight.  A lot of hard hits, but only 4 hits.

Conforto has been a nice little find . 121 wrc . If the Cubs let Happ go and go with a 1 year guy . He has put himself in the conversation as the strong part of a platoon

He has been worth his weight for sure this year! Pleasant surprise- great bench this year all around

Yeah, every one of us hated Conforto in March.  I didn't think he could be this good.

[JBears79]

PR has been really impressive so far.

I'm guessing his value will not hold up if he has to spend a significant amount of time playing the OF.

Pedro has wheels.  Very intriguing player with several skills

I know he's the shiny new toy and due for a date with the regression monster, but there's enough there to make me think Shaw can be expendable in the right trade.

It's fun.

[mk49]

Conforto probably couldn't catch that one.

That’s certainly possible . At least this year he hasn’t been awful on defense . Basically neutral in both corners . But yeah I get the concern in larger samples  . I am hoping they bring back Seiya back

[mk49]

Does Dean still have the highest OPS?😄

[Dfan25]

In really good position to take the series with their 2 bests SP next two days . Hopefully they don’t blow it . Also they aren’t getting Schlitter this weekend , on paper caught a break there

Wantz might not be very good

It is downright hilarious to me that the best rednecks in baseball thinks PCA is the biggest whiner known to man.. if there is one fan base that knows something about whining, it's the Cardinals.
