Worst signing? bwaaaaaaaa ....Fowler played hurt a lot. He is definitely not the problem they need to fix so why bring him up. This team has tons to do before mentioning his name. He needs to move out of center and I think he will.
Grichuk, Piscotty, Carpenter. There's 3 problems.
Bullpen, there's 4 problems at least.
Clean up, there's one really big problem.
Matheney, he's beyond problems.
And as difficult as it is, Mo might be the biggest problem of all if he doesn't make MAJOR CHANGES for next year.
Lightning could stike on Mike Shannons head AND they could win the WS but it wouldn't change my mind on any of this.
This team needs a big time shake up.
Next year, if those folks you named will just step up, well, they could win it all.

It's the way more people should be. If I wanted to hunt with topwater fork... that I don't like, I'd take up guiding more often.......but I don't do well with stupid chit, stupid people, wanna be's.....nor do I need their money thankfully.

Dawg......I'm pretty sure you've found a winning formula for that endeavor.

fork Joe Maddon. Sick of his one way bull chit.
Hope Matheney has it in him to deck these clowns all night long.
He's played you like a fool Mikey, time to pay back.

Yeah....I'm tired of Maddon's bull chit also but I'm more tired of Matheny's brain freeze when it comes to winning a 'must win game'.
What game was he watching?? Everybody in the park knows that Wacha can go south real fast when he faces the lineup for the 3rd time. Did we have anyone up in the bull pen??
No--
it wasn't until the Cubs had a 4-1 lead did he do anything of note. Where was all this expanded roster bull chit? Where was all this 'all hands on deck'?
Where was this "do everything to win today's game philosophy'?
Back in the day-- we could have had quite a few proven major league managers wanting the Cardinal job-- Francona comes to mind
but DeWitt and company decided on the litle league manager out of Wildwood
Matheny has lived off the LaRussa glory years's for nearly 6 years now and is running out of 'glory'. All the marketing and all the hype will soon sound pretty hollow if the Cardinals don't make some moves to actually beat Central Division teams.
So Fork Joe Maddon but FORK Mike Matheny even more

Wu...........your post is exactly why I started the 2018 Cardinals post early. I knew we were forked a month plus ago. Matheny needs to go. I would have hit every player in a Cubs uniform I could all night long. Molina would have been pitching, since I would have used every damn pitcher I had. fork Maddon and the fork the CUBS

We all agree on MM. That forking do nothing move while Wacha gives up 5 straight hits is unacceptable in April but beyond comprehension in September. Total BS. Insulting, actually.
Last weekend, another huge game, he burns up Lyons in that big run beating the Pirates put on us then next night what does he do? Lyons can't pitch of course, apparently nobody can pitch....tied game....so he brings in OH followed by.....you guessed it...Cecil. Total predictable disaster for anybody but Mike.
Maddon is perhaps the most over hyped guy in baseball. He steps into a team that tanked for 8 years to get what 5-6 top draft picks?? He deserved to lose last years WS too with those bone headed moves of his own. He's a cry baby who swoons at the press and they eat it up. But your right Wu, he's manhandled Matheny quite well, beaning when he wants with no response and then feigning who me.
Fork em both.

You got nothing to worry about Haus 
Rockies would have to go full Jim Jones Kool Aid Party for the Birds to get in at this point

Birds are done, as of last night's loss.
I follow the Rox about as much as the Birds, so go Rockies!!
They don't look too impressive either, so i'm not getting to excited about them.
I enjoy baseball period. It'll be a fun post season. Prolly funner than watching the Birds attempt to play all season.
