I watched the first half of the game last night and have to admit, this doesn't *feel* like last year's team. It's pretty sad that Arenado and Goldy are out of the lineup and no one seems to care. Burleson and Winn are fun to watch. Gorman stealing that run was something that I am not used to seeing in recent Cards teams.

I would have never have thought in spring 2023 that Gordon Graceffo wouldn't make his major league debut until almost July of 2024.

So why did they bump Gray from his start and move him to Friday? I'm assuming they think the division games are more important?
We don't have 3 other starters good enough to beat the Cubs? |

They were going to have to call up Graceffo because of the double header anyway. So bump him or not, they were going to need an additional starter. So they decided to go ahead and use the need for an extra starter to get Gray an additional day of rest.

Eric Longenhagen's pick for the Cardinals at seventh overall.
7. St. Louis Cardinals Pick: Bryce Rainer, SS, Harvard Westlake (CA) In this scenario, JJ Wetherholt is just sitting there, which might be too tempting for the Cardinals to pass up. Names people have put with St. Louis include Nick Kurtz, Chase Burns (does he have a home between pick no. 3 and here?), and Rainer. Recall that Masyn Winn was also a two-way prospect with a huge arm and that has worked out. I don’t think Konnor Griffin is in play here at all. |

Ah Ok. The way the bullpen is going right now it wouldn't have mattered anyway.

Look at San Diego's Jackson Merrill. He came up as a shortstop. He got moved to center fielder for his MLB debut. He's on the all-star team as a rookie CF. |
