Ponce has also went on the DL.

Miller not being here is a plus.

I agree with you about Miller not being here is a plus. He has been disappointing since we got him. I'm still not sure how I feel about Ponce.

The good news is that we beat the Pirates tonight as the old man Carpenter, fighting for his survival, did it again.

Was hoping for a split in the 4 game series with the Dodgers!

Am happy on a Friday night holding the Dodgers to 2 runs in 2 games and getting the split!

I wonder how long Burnes will be out

Flaherty has gotten 66 runs by his offense in his 7 games. 3rd highest in franchise history. But, he has been pitching well, would like to see his SO/W ratio get better.

9.1 K/9 and 2.4 BB/9 are solid rates, though there was a time where 9.1 was considered elite. I'm sure his strikeout rate will rise.

Flaherty is on pace to win over 30 games with the run support he gets but we know that's not going to happen.

The Cardinals won their 20th game of the season today but they made it much more difficult than it should have been.

Brandon Woodruff has gotten less than 1/2 run support and easily should have 5 wins by now.

Brew Crew continues to waste great starting pitching due to their hitting woes.

Damn it

In the rubber game of the three game series today at Milwaukee runs might be difficult to get by both teams as two great pitchers are going against each other.

Pitcher A: 1.7 WAR, ERA+ 258

Pitcher B: 0.1 WAR, ERA+ 86

If this doesn't show how meaningless of a stat wins are, I don't know what will. Good catch @navamind

clearly lacks the will to win

Hopefully Hendricks continues his trend of a great start followed by a terrible start!
