  1. Officially cunceling the szn. Call me a doomer all you want. This team is WORSE than last year, we’ve just been held up by decent pitching so far.

    We had a good run.

  2. It’s going to be hilarious in a few months listening to Chip and Brad practically beg fans to come to the games in person.

    “$12 dollar beers taste so much better in person!”

    “You really need to see Winn throw in person to appreciate what an amazing talent he is.”

    “Even if you have a 90 inch TV at home Goldschmidt’s forearms are even bigger in person! Please park at one of our $40 parking garages!”

  3. Oli just said “I thought that was one of Matz’s better outings.”
    That’s seriously the message we’re going with after being walloped 14-1? Good god.

  4. Well damn at least I skipped this one in hopes of trying to propel another victory

    I’m beginning to think this team simply isn’t very good

  5. Spent an hour at a bar before the game listening to them say how amazing the bullpen is

  6. Can you believe that arrogant Mo-thafuqa had the nerve to say he was insulted when he was booed on opening day?

  7. This is simply infuriating to watch. I love the cardinals so much but just can’t justify giving another dollar to the Dewitt’s. Nothing will change until they sell the team.

  8. The theory I’ve heard is Dewitt III is now in charge of day-to-day and has zero interest in competing. He wants to milk the tit for a while and then sell.

  9. I guess the local media acting like last night was going to end any issues and slump have decided to MIA tonight. No surprise.

  10. It’s just so deflating. A nice win one night and the next night shit the bed. They gave me some hope this would shift momentum and then nope, they just get their ass totally kicked. I aint no friggin doomer, but they make it so hard to stay positive.

  11. Haven’t drank in 5+ years. Sitting in Mexico drunk af. Fiance just broke up with me. Dont have a home to come back to now…yet this team is the worst thing in my life right now. FML

  12. After last night’s intermission, we now return to our regularly scheduled losing.

  13. As much as I disliked the Gibson/Lynn signings (moreso Gibson, just bc he doesnt have the K stuff LL does), I have appreciated watching them, knowing what to expect, because I think they know what to expect. They are what they are, total pros, even if what they are isn’t very good.

    Steven Matz and Miles Mikolas on the other hand, I can’t stand their starts. Matz pitches like a 25 year old pitcher who fold whenever there is any adversity and then appears to pout in the dugout afterwords, meanwhile you’d think Mikolas had Randy Johnson’s career with his annoying jobber ass attitude, meanwhile he’s absolute dogass. Kyle Gibson, yeah he has it or doesn’t, not a very good pitcher, but whatever. Lance Lynn, you get good or bad, but its the same guy, on and off the field.

    The unfortunate thing for Matz is that he actually has stuff and velo, to where he could actually effectively be moved to the bullpen (esp with ZT being shit), Mikolas has the contract and is locked in, unfortunately.

  14. Our whole system needs to be rebuilt. We can’t draft, we can’t develop, we can’t manage or coach. This organization has literally been run into the ground since Luhnow left.

  15. It stinks to see prospects just strike out and Gorman and Goldie struggle on top of bad pitching. Seems like a losing culture right now 😕

  16. Whoa whoa whoa, so you’re telling me that we’re now officially (at) .500???? But I was told we would suck..?

    Ha, love for the birds to back it up. Fuck the naysayers. Every one of y’all, respectfully fuck off. This is a damn solid ass team and I’m happy to be a Cardinal!

    2024 NLC crown is ours by October.

  17. Not to worry gentleman. Famous stopper Kyle “The Eater” Gibson is going against some random schlub tomorrow.

  18. What a terrible year to live in Arizona, I said, for the twenty-fourth consecutive year

  19. Can someone explain to me how Logan Allen was credited with a save when entering the ballgame with a 14 to 1 lead?

  20. Just when you think this team *might* have signs of a pulse, they snatch defeat from the jaws of victory yet again. I don’t know if it’s Oli, or the team knowing Mo and DeWallet aren’t serious about fielding a contender, but they aren’t having fun. They aren’t supporting each other, and they aren’t playing good baseball.

    The cards have been a toxic workplace for a few years now, looking at how successful players have been upon leaving.

    I vote blow it up from the top down and start over.

  21. I was banned an entire year from this sub last year for shitting on this team when it was extremely apparent how awful we were going to be and talking up another team I was excited to watch. Now I’m just another face in the crowd. God I hate not enjoying Cardinal baseball anymore

  22. I still think this team can be competitive…

    But my fucking god. What a shit show this has been so far. Fuck the 14 runs. Another game of scoring *ONE*. Give us something to fucking cheer for, some homers, some runs, some steals—SOMETHING.

    I’m just about out of time with this offense.

  23. Cardinals run diff: -30

    Dbacks run diff: +39

    Turns out those 69 runs only get you two extra wins!

  24. Your pitching staff is going to have stinkers from time to time. That’s just how the game works. But when half of your team could use a trip to memphis to “get right” you got a problem in the hitting coach chair. I was never a fan of Jeff Albert, but this Ward guy…he needs to go before he ruins Walker, Gorman and anyone else in the minors

  25. I was at the game, we left after the grand slam and I never leave early like that.

  26. I think I’m going to stick to Australian Football and Billiards for my sports entertainment for a little while. I’m not having a whole lot of fun
