What's the reason that Lombardozzi can't unseat Espinosa? Dude absolutely sucks.
Cause Mike Rizzo has a hard on for players he drafted and he's too stubborn to give up on them. He loves Danny for his "potential" even though he's gotten worse every year he's played in the majors.

TBF Espinosa has been playing injured.
Nah, Espinosa decided not to get surgery on his rotator cuff in the off-season. And in a recent article he stated that the team recommended he sit out 3 weeks for his broken wrist but Espinosa is scared of losing his job to Lombo at 2B so he's selfishly playing through the pain and hurting the team.
 
7 strong innings for Wacha, making the alma mater proud. Wacha Wacha Wacha!

Seriously, Yadi deserves baseball's first billion dollar contract.

You see all these rookies they have thrown out there this year? Doesn't even matter that they're young or how good they are. Results, always.
 
Everybody loves Yadi.

Champ, what's good with your boy Kemp? Still your choice for one of your top center fielders or just one of those years?
 
Matty won't admit it publicly, but it's the lead shoulder still bothering him. Also struggling with mechanics. Perhaps trying to tinker and overcompensate.

The year isn't lost if he can go on a tear after a short DL stint for the hammy (and shoulder). Doesn't help that Dre is worthless.

Still would only take Harper, Trout, and Braun over Kemp.
 
Matty's eventually going to be forced into a corner OF position to protect longevity. Probably when Puig becomes a regular fixture.

Kemp (LF) - CF - Puig (RF).

But unfortunately he didnt get the win because DAMN Matheny LOVES boggs for some STUPID reason, smdh. Dude was terrible in the big leagues, was terrible in the minors, came back and is STILL terrible!!!!!!!!!

Honestly hoping he gets released or traded in the next few days, he just isnt cutting it and we have better arms available.

Wacha, Shelby, Tavares, Wong.

Future is bright in STL.
Very.......Shelby is already looking like the rookie of the year, Wong is batting .336 or something like that in the minors this year. Tavares will do his thing when he overcomes this ankle injury.........wacha would be 1-0 if it were for boggs, smdh.

This team is going to be GREAT.........will definately be the best pitching STAFF in the next 2 years. (we already have the best starter stats overall in the league, but if we release boggs and get martinez back up here in the bullpen instead of grooming him to be a starter, then we`ll be the best pitching staff, period)

But i can see this getting REALLY expensive..........But i cant see how they wouldnt spend the money if we are perennial playoff contenders......they would be making plenty money to pay everybody.

Matheny may be the most thankful man in St. Louis to Yadi.
its a tie between him and all these young pitchers........he is going to have a statue right next to musial at the end of his career!
 
The Cards 6-9 pitchers are better than most teams 3-5. The way they manage and groom their prospects is amazing.
