I read the Cardinals regret letting Adolis go. I find it amazing that many on this board think every player should hit around 300. They are human and they will mess up.These things happen to every team, every season. It's the nature of baseball. I personally find it pointless to try and determine which particular event "wrecked" a season. Either the team was good enough to overcome adversity or it wasn't. Mistakes and bad games are 100% unavoidable and guaranteed to happen. all throughout a season.
I guess I understand how pinpointing a certain play or game can provide some sort of satisfaction, like the case was "solved," but since there's no way to prove it, and it doesn't change the fact that the team simply wasn't able to overcome adversity, it seems like a waste of time to hang a midseason slump on a single play or a single game.
