Cardinals After Dark 8/12

33 comments

1. Fire everyone in to the sun. The Rockies (the worse team in baseball) has shut the Cardinals out twice

2. Misery in waking hours.

3. Oh no! We suck again!

   JK Had some highlights for this game, but lack of timely hitting bites us again.

4. Let’s just win the series

5. Worst offense in the league rn. Just disgusting.

6. 

7. Games like that are why we sold at the deadline

8. Sell the team

9. Last year’s offense was substantially better 😂

10. Neutral fan who hasn’t followed cardinals much lately. Not trying to kick while down either, genuinely curious…

    What happened to Jordan Walker after rookie year?

    Is he even a big leaguer going forward

11. I honestly have come to expect this sort of thing over the last few years, but it’s still incredible when it happens.

12. Losing to the Rockies in the midst of a wild card push is not ideal

13. We account for nearly 10% of the Rockies wins this year lmao 

14. Alright, we better win tomorrow. If we lose another series to the Rockies, I’m out for good.

15. Every time I look at the WC standings and think “hey, maybe…” we get shut out by the Rockies

16. 0-9 RISP. This team can only score with a HR.

17. Please lord don’t let the worse team in baseball take 2 of 3 from us again 😩

18. It’s really inexcusable how often we are getting shutout this yr. We’ve seen a lot of growth and improvement from players individually which is good but we’re getting shutout way too often. Usually by crap pitchers/teams too I don’t get it

19. At some point it has to fall on the manager.

20. Massively frustrating game. It’s all conjecture, but gotta feel like if one of Donny or Ivan got on in the 8th and Gorm had that exact swing, game goes into the 9th tied

21. Walker and swinging at junk way outside the zone

23. Where are we on dooming? Yes? No? Somewhere in between?

25. Embarrassing

26. I dunno… I’m just not upset. We won our Postseason this weekend. They can fail out the rest of the year and they’ve already met expectations as far as I’m concerned.

    This team is honestly not good, and the franchise itself–ownership and management–is atrocious. But they helped the Cubs continue to fail. That’s honestly more than you can ask from the Cardinals right now. A bad team beat its much, much better rival franchise. Win.

    They take two of three from a historically bad team and that’s just icing on the cake.

    Hell if I’m being honest, winning one against the Rockies is exceeding expectations right now. They could have just as easily got swept.

    That Sunday game was the best game I’ve been to in Busch in *years*, no bullshit. Probably since 2013. Twelve years.

    I’ll take it.

27. Angels with a triple play

28. Pretty rotten experience there tonight as fans (and surely the players etc). But hey guys, at least we weren’t the greatest player since Babe Ruth to get tripled up tonight! Go Birds!

29. Beat the Dodgers and Cubs; get shutout by the Rockies.

    That’s baseball, folks. Shit sucks

30. Not sure whether to laugh or cry

31. Tonight, on Dayyyyys Of Our Cardinals!

32. A true .500 team. Flip a coin to determine if they’ll win a game against any team, no matter how good or bad that team is.

33. Are we the only team to get shut out by the Rockies twice this year?
