when we beat the dodgers the other day and greg amsinger said that we won a game we lost. those dodgers are so good that they win when they lose
If Sonny Gray has a twin brother that also wears a Cardinals jersey then yes.
He’s not wrong about this. Does anyone think the Mets or Reds right now are better than the Cards. I don’t! The schedule is going to get easier. Let’s go!!!!!
These are definitely points that may or may not be true.
On the other hand, I remember the month of July. And at the end of the day making the wildcard to drop out immediately is just purgatory by another name. It would be funny in a fuck the mets way though
Reckless optimism
Honestly what I love about baseball is it’s not so tank/draft heavy. By this point I want my favorite NHL and NFL teams to lose every game for the draft and get mad if they win. But MLB? F it. Win every game even if you make the wild card and lose. You just never know with baseball. Go birds give ‘em hell
Buying my world series tickets now
12 of the cardinals last 18 games (and the last 6 games) are played on the road. They’re 26-34 on the road this year so I guess we’ll see.
As soon as I heard him say the words “Big 4” and “Miles Mikolas” in the same sentence, I had stop watching for a sec
I already got my 12n25 shirt made
I do believe some of these points but the Mets will really have to continue to fall apart. Our offense and back end starters need to be better than they have been if this is going to happen.
Fuck we’re winning it all get the parade ready
Can they? Sure why not. Will they? Probably not. Offense is too streaky. Saying we have a big 4 in the starting rotation is more than a stretch lol. The bullpen has still been preforming but riding 3 guys the rest of the season and a potential playoff run usually doesn’t work out. That being said it would be hilarious making the playoffs and pushing the Mets out
Greg is a Cardinal fan. He’s always going to root for the home team
We just nearly lost to historically bad Rockies. Let’s cool the jets a bit.
The Cardinals haven’t made the playoffs since 2022, won a playoff game since 2020, and haven’t won a playoff series since 2019. If they make the Wild Card round even if it is only to get beat by the Dodgers of course I’ll be happy. At this point you have to show that you’re building towards something. The Blues making the playoffs last season and taking the Jets to the brink built excitement for this the upcoming season. This would do the same.
Nope
I think he had about 7 of those old fashioned’s before he made that
that ole fashion got on his head
The dude mentioned Miles Mikolas and not Micheal McGreevy when discussing our ability to make a playoff run wtf
This team was always going to be heavily dependent on the young core. If Walker maintains his current streak and some of the other guys can pick it up, good things well happen.
Personally, I believe the playoffs are out of reach. However, ending the year fighting for it and having our young guys start to develop into solid ball players will be a huge jumpstart to 2026.
I like Greg, but this is ramblings of a drunk uncle
You are not selling me with the easy schedule lmao. We struggle against bad teams so bad for some reason
Dude is on his 5th bourbon 🥃
I love Greg….. but come on man.
Yeah I don’t agree with #2 at all but appreciate the optimism 😂
I agree with everything except number 2.
