Oh man, save some for later boys, you can call off the dogs now

Baseball rules again

Yank his useless ass I’m not kidding

If Darvish immediately gives up runs here as he is want to do, I’m kicking him out of the rotation
-
Holy horsefeathers
-
It brings me no joy to announce that Yu Darvish sucks
-
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat upon him was Hendricks, and Hell followed with him.

of all the Cardinals players I probably hate Matt Carpenter the most. He combines this overeager "try-hard" attitude that I hate + he has this ugly face that I also hate

SUCK IT SUCK IT SUCK SUCK IT

Evidence that strikeouts don't mean a whole lot at all for hitters: Cubs pitchers: 1 K Cardinals pitchers: 11 Ks Cubs up 4 runs
-
Hahah, I don't mind that. It could have gotten us another run
-
THAT'LL DO

i hope Baez comes with his big ol swinging dong
-
This Gallegos guy seems really good too bad they're wasting him in a sure loss (my cockiness will come back to haunt me)
-
Line outs are only acceptable if the opposing team commits them
-
It will, but what can you do, revel in the good times my comrade
-
Rizzo OPS watch: .924
-
YESSSSSS YESSSSSSSSSSSSS I LOVE IT. FEED ME CARDINAL TEARS
-
Lineouts by the Cubs are illegal. Those two outs should be returned to us and recorded as singles, thank you
-
Hendricks is hulking out. This is 2016 NLCS style baby
-
Hendricks still on pace for a Maddux

Maples ain’t but I’m buying low on the other guys I bought low on Heyward 2 years ago. That, uh, didn’t exactly work out. Nothing to do but hold on and hope. Three years of bad seasons, but each season he improved on it. Now he's got a very different batting profile (a 17% swing in direction of where the ball is going) so we'll see what happens. Chatwood.....we'll see. Its almost impossible for him to duplicate how bad his control was last year, its huge to ask him to cut his walks in half, but he's already cut his BB/9 by 2. This is unfortunately accompanied by a decline in his strikeout percentage. We shall see. He's only thrown 14+ innings.

Rizzo is gonna finish the day with a .900 OPS, he's determined

It is pretty amazing what a turnaround this has been from the first 10 games. This looks like a very solid team, though concerns around the pitching will continue for me based on age, no matter what. The hitting is legit though. Even if Heyward and Contreras slow down, I expect a bit more of a boost from Bryant, Rizzo (who has shockingly pulled his OPS into the mid 800s again) and, yes, Schwarber.
