Jaime Garcia just hit a grand slam for the Braves against the Dodgers in LA.

Fowler was jogging in centerfield when Bryant scored from first. Good throw but still no excuse for that.

That's the type of loss that should make a GM want to sell. This team isn't horrible but they should try and improve for next year. They will probably trade for some middle reliever and say they are to close to give up though.

Just seems like any close game they somehow blow it with either horrible defense or relief pitching. It would help if the manager actually knew how to handle a bullpen.

It's clear from watching the Cardinals that they've lost a little bit of that "grind it!" Mentality that LaRussa was so good at fostering. I've seen Mozeliak talk about that recently, and how they need a shake-up. Seems like the place to start would be with the manager, but I heard some stuff this week (third hand but trustworthy) that reinforces what Miklasz has been saying about Matheny's standing with the DeWitts... Basically, Matheny is beloved by them because his good looks, super Christian image, and "Cardinal Way" background are incredibly popular with the casual portions of the fan base. This member of the St. Louis media thinks Matheny is the manager as long as he wants to be. Might be time to start thinking about framing him for some of the shit Hugh Freeze just got toasted for.

The team loses scores of games in incredibly dumbassed fashion and it's gotten worse every year of his tenure. You're right that it's not accidental. The best way to get rid of him is to have him get over his head with some more terrible real estate deals. Then, maybe someone will cap his ass. |

So hey, just promote Matheny and call it a day. I can't handle this team or this manager anymore. It's the most unlikable team I've ever seen in any sport. Is mizzou basketball if 90% of the players were loafing millionaires. |

The Cardinals have nothing but outfielders, starting pitchers and lefthhanded relievers in their system and over the last two years they've burned $195 million on a replacement level OFer and lefty reliever and an average starting pitcher. And that got John Mozeliak a !@#$ing promotion. I'd give anything to have a job in that organization. If you look good on camera and speak without saying anything, you have a job for life. Do a bad enough job and you'll get promoted. It's incredible how bad a job John Mozeliak has done over the last 3 years. Just absolute dogshit. |
