Not really, much, I think the dude swung like a little ____. Willie Mays Hayes has a better swinghaha. But I think people that do that crap are incredibly stupid and have SDE, I over here never been in a fight, but that is because I am bigger than a lot of people, and have enough swing to break a jaw easily if I ever needed to. 

I think the dude should be banned from all Major League parks

 

I agree but I am not sure how that be done.

Big homecoming tonight with Lester on the Mound and Schwarber in LF. Maybe Castro too. 

Only Cub in the lineup tonight with at bats vs Lester is Duffy who is 1-2

This is hard to watch, I miss those guys. Baez hitting a home run off of Lester just felt weird man. Schwarber got one too, I bet he misses hitting at Wrigley.

Cubs win, beat the Nationals 7-3. Nice to get a win over the former Cub Jon Lester who takes the loss. Cubs are now 20-20 at .500 so we are maintaining so far through May within close distance of the 1st place Cards who are off tonight. Just 2.5 games back of 1st now.

 

Here are the NL Central Division standings through May 17th, 2021:

 

1. Cards 23-18

2. Brewers 21-20 (2 back)

3. Cubs 20-20 (2.5 back)

4. Reds 19-20 (3 back)

5. Pirates 17-23 (5.5 back)

MLB office can do it at least by requiring all teams to not allow him to buy tickets, and to eject if.

Heyward also getting the HR. Lester telling Rizzo "I hate you" after the first ground out, because Rizzo played it slowly and cool just to mess with Lester:lol:

Hope it's a good one.   

Do you go to the museum before the game?   I've never been but have heard great things about it.

I will end up being downtown, today, Saturday (Cubs v Cards) and Sunday (Blues v Avalanche) but I wonder if it is in ballpark village?

I'm hoping you make it there so you can fill me in about it.  

 

 

The St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Fame presented by Edward Jones was created to honor the players and personalities who have had the greatest impact on the franchise, and it gives fans a new way to connect and learn about our team's great heritage. Fans will vote on new inductees annually, and interactive kiosks help you learn more about past Cardinals greats with photos, video and statistics. Located just outside the Cardinals Museum, the Cardinals Hall of Fame presented by Edward Jones will always be accessible to fans at no cost when Cardinals Nation is open.

 

From WIKI:

 

The Cardinals Hall of Fame and Museum contains over 15,000 total artifacts and 80,000 photographs, second only to the National Baseball Hall of Fame as the largest collection of baseball antiquities. The sections of the Museum include: the Plaque Gallery, a Sportsman's Park Room, a Busch Stadium II Room, a Busch Stadium III Room, a Championship Gallery, a Uniform Timeline, a Look at the Current Cardinals, a St. Louis Browns Display, a St. Louis Stars Display, and a Temporary Exhibit Room that has included displays on Stan Musial and a history of the Cardinals Farm System.

Championship memorabilia[7]

A baseball autographed by the 1926 World Series-winning team, including an autograph from Babe Ruth, playing for the opponent the New York Yankees.

A 1931 World Series championship ring in its original green case that was awarded to Sparky Adams

A program from the first and only all-St. Louis World Series, played in 1944 against the Browns (now the Baltimore Orioles)

As @Jay Kirk would say, baseball is a marathon, not a sprint. No need to be too upset about a game or two in May. Now in September, you have more reason to be worried.

You are correct after All Star break and trade deadline . Going into last of July and early August is when the chips are down , and we really see whos who.

My thought exactly. I cannot understand why so many of my fellow Vikings fans were defending the Padres fan. The Rockies fan who was punched chose not to press charges. I feel that the Padres fan should have been arrested. That was awful. 

He would've been in St Louis it wouldve been do not pass go do not collect 200 dollars go directly to jail :spit: They dont tolerate nonsense in their ballpark .

Lol nothing to hang our head about , long season and they will be coming to our ballpark. Cards are not at 100 percent . Warm weather approaching then look out Goldy will catch fire as will Dejoung . Wont be a lineup most want to face . Molina a bit rusty from time off as well. I would loved to seen Reyes in the rotation though. But with Hicks out they need him where he is.

We have had a few injuries. That is the only reason why we would trade for him. 

 

Yep, and the Cubs are the only team that did not ask for significant money or prospects. The cash amount the Cubs are getting is $1 haha, no that is not an exaggeration

Enjoy them while you are still young. One year when I was 23 or 24, I attended twenty games at Shea Stadium. 

 

I attended one hockey game. It was exciting. I went because the Rangers were honoring someone who had done great work in the community in NY -- Adam Graves. He did invaluable work yet he was so humble.

Yep! They didn't want to stand in way of him going to MLB, so they traded him for just that

 

And this is my age 23 year. And will have at least 5 games by second week of June 

 

I enjoy going to hockey games, last I went to, last month, blues scored 9 times most in ten years

You seem like such a mature 23-year-old. I recall when you told us you were a senior in high school way back when. I remember being surprised. haha 

 

I am not an NHL hockey fan but I had to go to that one game. I like Olympic hockey  better.

 

Enjoy the games!

Nice win last night.  Edman, Carlson, Molina, Sosa and Arenado had multi-hit games.  

I think I give up on Carpenter and hope they cut him and bring up some youth.    He's hitting .108.   Last year he hit .186.  2019 he hit .226.

18-2 Giants over Reds in the 7th. 9 run 3rd inning. Has anyone seen a crazy scoring inning like that before?

 

A couple years ago the Cards scored 10 runs in the 1st inning of a playoff game.

I also remember when Fernando Tatis had 8 RBI in 1 inning.  

 

ATLANTA -- Looking to secure their first National League Championship Series berth since 2014, the Cardinals wasted no time. They simply put together the biggest first inning in MLB postseason history.

They earned that distinction by scoring 10 first-inning runs against the Braves in Wednesday’s 13-1 win in Game 5 of the NL Division Series at SunTrust Park, the most ever by a team in the first inning of a playoff game. The Cardinals received RBI hits from Marcell Ozuna, Tommy Edman, Dexter Fowler and Kolten Wong as part of their five knocks in the frame, during which they sent 14 men to the plate.

I slightly remember that game, but did not remember it was 10 runs. 

 

Tatis Sr, big game was wayyy before my time so no recollection of the game except the two GS since they bring it up every couple weeks

    • Intentionally yes. But if you go with let's say Will Anderson if he is there and ride it out with the current Qb roster you may have a chance at getting to one next year.
    • So, I have been pretty open and transparent that for the Colts, what we will likely run, and how i think they will likely evaluate these guys, I would rank the big 4 (in terms of fit and what i would want to see): Stroud, Richardson, Levis, Young.   All that being said, the total angst for Levis is insane. I have come around to sell myself on him simply because I believe Stroud will be gone and if it comes down to Richardson and Levis I have a much easier time believing the Colts would draft Levis over Richardson.   I know that many, many analysts and fans and twitter warriors love the athleticism and the upside of Richardson. And I totally get it. But here is the thing: As much as Richardson's tools, upside and testing numbers are what is elevating him, people say what truly holds him back is the lack of experience, completion percentage/inaccuracy, etc. Here is something nobody really says:   What if the "only 13 games" thing on Richardson is actually helping him instead of hurting him?   If Richardson went back to school next year and had a terrible year (think what some people say of Levis' 2022 vs his 2021), Richardson would likely fall completely out of any first round consideration and any franchise QB talk. I would argue the fact that he doesn't have experience yet is helping his stock. People can still talk about "what he could be" since he hasn't fallen on his face yet.    This is the exact reason why I am actually OK with Levis.    Things could not have gone much worse for him last season and yet he is still absolutely considered a 1st round QB and in many circles still a top-10 pick.   I wonder where he would rank amongst prospects if he had that 2021 season this past year. If we were evaluating his 2021 and his upside shown in 2021 compared to the other 3 then i think he is seen in a much different light.    Also, Richardson may have some baseline of a floor w his rushing that is decent like the clip that @Restinpeacesweetchloe posted from Mina Kimes and RGIII backing Richardson. But here is the thing. Look at all of the criticism that was heaped on Lamar Jackson and Justin Fields and guys like them that people claimed were "RBs playing QB." And both of them were much more established throwing the ball coming out compared to Richardson.    Every year it is said to "ignore what you hear during draft season" because so much misinformation and shiftiness happens as agendas are pushed and as teams jockey to elevate guys they dont want and depress guys that they do want.    To me it is telling that Richardson's stock has catapulted sky high during the draft season when basically everyone knew he was going to test as an all-time elite combine specimen. Yet when the college season ended he was seen as a pick maybe in the teens or early 20s based on possible upside. Now everywhere has him top-5.    Levis was seen in that top-5 to top-10 range to start and is now falling.    Nothing has changed w their tape. Nothing has changed with injuries. These guys are the same guys they were months ago and yet the narrative is so different now. Just doesn't sit right with me.    It is the reason why i think we hear whispers that "teams and evaluators probably have Levis a lot higher than draft analysts, media and fans do".    At the end of the day, I am in agreement with a bunch of the fans in our forum that think "give me the guy with the greatest upside and the highest high and let's hope we help him reach that consistently". That is why most folks want Richardson (myself included). But I would be remiss to not say that Levis' considerable upside is just a tick below Richardson in my eyes.    If we end up drafting either Richardson or Levis I think both of them could have top-10 NFL QB upside if they can realize their potential. But for both of them that will be a big IF. 
    • Its a move that would get everyone fired plus if found out they would take away the pick
    • Me too. I dont see how it's a loser mentality when it sets you up to win for the next decade possibly. The loser mentality is drafting player out of desperation that can ultimately set the team back.
    • Smh. You just cant stop with the nonsense huh?
