Dan: If Goldschmidt gets a fastball here, he's going to launch it.
Goldschmidt gets fastball, and fouls out to first. |

and because Mo wanted everyone comfortable. We are locked into $270+ million worth of contracts of aging and underperforming players. He achieved his goal of making them fat, happy and comfortable. AND since his outdated strategy has failed AND he is not adapting, despite his making money hand over fist for Dewitt, the owner has to step up and save his club from further embarrassment.

Pirates took the Cubs out behind the woodshed tonight. 18-5 in the top of the 9th.
Pittsburgh scored at least one run in every inning but the 3rd. Damn. |

Cards have more international bonus pool money than anyone, finished "just out of the running" for Jasson Dominguez (stunning), and now have used almost none of it.
**** Mo to death with a barbed wire- covered fence post. |

"something something, dry powder, something something...." /Mozeliak.
When the organization can't be bothered to EVER pursue top 20 international players, they don't run the risk of any future penalties that might diminish their pool. |

Gives them a chance to grab another 6th inning or utility infielder prospect here and there. So many JAGs in this system. |
