Wildcat Mike is in full on rage mode when he sees a Mizzou icon/poster.

Cards will be lucky to get wildcard spot.


Missed it by one games last year. Improved their roster from last year.

They swept but saying they kicked our arse is an overstatement..... line drive homer that barely got caught in the basket to win game one and an 18 inning game.... not a beat down.

The Yankees look legit with their mix of young and vets... idk their guys can sustain this hitting but that bullpen is loaded. Certainly will be interesting to see.

I thought 2018 would be their year, but they look a year ahead of schedule. Fun team to watch.

Hoping Leake keeps his form up is fool's gold for the Cards.Lynn has been good and Martinez is much better than his starts with those silly hair extensions. We have a couple arms that will have an impact down the stretch in the minors. Flaherty and Weaver.

Lynn is the only hot start that everyone saw coming. Wacha CAN be good, when not injured(rare). Leake's hot start tho, who knows how long it will last. Weaver has also been one of the best minor league pitchers so far, and he was decent in limited time last season with us.

What? That ball was way out.

Ellsbury hit a homer over the weekend that got caught in the basket.

Yes
Nice blend of youth and veterans
Bullpen is great

I would say the only weakness is another starter

Tanaka has to stay healthy
Severino is really good
Sabathia is old and done

They will likely make a deal for a starter at the deadline

I very well could be wrong but give it time. Torres and Frazier will both be starters next year. That's my point.

Series against the Stros this week/weekend should be a doozy. Have the Sunday Night Baseball slot.
