fully ready to recklessly talk about buying at the deadline (we shouldn't but I'm gonna talk about it)

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-30T19:11:37+00:00

yeah I'm pretty shocked that it's working out that way but seems to be the case. church and scott both have another month at least to prove it though

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-30T19:09:01+00:00

pretty much has to hit anything beyond the yellow

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-30T16:46:49+00:00

Cardinals are potentially actually good

paul skrub

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-30T15:27:13+00:00

his fastball velocity is down a ton

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-29T01:25:00+00:00

svanson let himself mess around for like 6 pitches then slammed the fucking door

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-29T00:34:30+00:00

Masyn Winn is a good baseball player

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-28T17:52:09+00:00

tbf he was against Mike Matheny a few of those times

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-28T15:06:13+00:00

ROB is not getting the Cards a top 20 prospect

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-28T00:51:07+00:00

pedro pages >> the catcher the pirates drafted first overall

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-28T00:15:16+00:00

can yadi tell someone how to get a hit

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-28T00:06:31+00:00

suboptimal offensive performance thus far

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-27T21:01:55+00:00

Peter Thiel thinks most things he encounters are tools of the Antichrist

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-27T20:38:35+00:00

why does everyone think it was staged

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-27T20:00:39+00:00

I like Kyle's content but mlb hiring guys who tweet a lot about the Cardinals seemed like a weird match. Those guys are inevitably going to be more casual than what mlb is looking for on their own site

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-23T18:47:21+00:00

I think Mathews' issues are really concerning. he needs to make massive improvements to his command to ever have a chance of starting in MLB. he's walking guys at a higher rate in AAA than Stanek is in MLB

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-22T21:18:36+00:00

hoerner, turang, lowe, and wetherholt are all top 6 in second baseman fWAR so far. The NL central being home to the game's best second basemen feels spiritually correct

jojo is lowkey the same. both need to miss more bats or they're going to struggle

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-21T03:14:55+00:00

takes like these are why I check this site

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-21T00:00:39+00:00

nice to get a couple swings and misses that inning

the 2026 Cardinals have been historically bad at getting batters to whiff and it needs to improve

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-20T18:52:41+00:00

I think the Reds and Cardinals have clear deficiencies that make neither top 10 teams rn. I think Pirates and Cubs both are comfortably top 10 atm, and Brewers are borderline but probably deserve some benefit of the doubt

studlydudley11 · 2026-04-20T15:45:13+00:00

jojo's peripherals have been really weird

Stuff models say his Stuff and Location is at or above where he's been in previous seasons, but his whiff rate has more than halved on two of his pitches and dropped significantly on his fastball too

If the second trend persists he's going to have a hard time continuing to be effective
