They could do a week or two of 6 man, but I agree it needs to be 5 with the horses they will have going.
I'd keep Weaver up here for now. He could be a long relief guy in a game that still means something, provided matheney actually gets him in before it's too late. Or even work mid relief and later too. He has some good stuff, the pen needs a good arm, he can't learn any more in Memphis, he should be up here.

Well I don't know.
Since you being the guy with all the double digit experience I'd think you would just run with your own thoughts.
Brewers did shock the division there at the end....picking up Yelich and Cane on the same day........and they are a very good club. If not us, I'm good with them.
But Cards still have TEN on the disabled list. 80 mil worth. Some problems for sure and a couple of them look to be going no where so now it's up to Matheney to do the right thing and that is always the last thing a Cards fan wants to see. bwaaaaaaaaa. No more kid glove treatment for Fowler, Wong and Carp. And Ozuno, my god, 3 homers in 2 months??? He's gotta come around.
Lots of wood to chop but hang on Bubba, you might just see the best starting pitching staff in the majors in a week or two right here in the Lou.

5 games is nothing to overcome. We overcame 8.5 games from the Braves. It’s not a Sprint.

So what's it going to be with this team?
Carp,even Fowler starting to turn up the BA. Ozuno finding his swing. One of the majors best starting rotations. Even defensively, they are way ahead of last year. All pretty good news.
But now it's Pham in a bit of a slump, Wong still lost at the plate. And that BP. That BP is NOT a play off caliber staff, changes have to be made.
I really like this team on paper but they have to get it all going together. Yadi's back and Martinez up to start and next 9 games are against sub .500 teams.
It's a long season and yeah they can waste more games and time and still make a run but right now they need 6-3 on this stretch and start playing to their abilities. This is a good team, bullpen aside, and they need to play like it.

When DeJong comes back, move Yairo Muñoz to 2nd. Or you find a way to get Gyorko in the lineup. Wong needs to be sitting his ass on a bench. Nader needs to be playing over Fowler. I wasn’t impressed with him as a Cub. He is way overpaid to produce the small amount he does. We grow outfielders in the minors. Always have. Why we got get an average outfielder for high money is stupid. Heyward was another waste of chasing or renting.
BP needs help. Cecil can take his money and leave. Holland can stay on the DL Lyons is a joke. 7.25+ ERA for the pen in the last 7 games. If the Cards me the playoffs, they better pray the starters go 9 innings every night. Best starting 5 in the Bigs. Worst pen at AA Level, let alone The bigs.

I can't imagine what it would be like to plop down a few hundred bucks for good seats, parking and some concessions, then get treated to the crappy play this team has exhibited the last few games (and many, many others the past 2-4 seasons). What an embarrassment this team has become with regard to defense, base running and overall fundamentals...

True that is!!!!!!!!
And to add insult to injury..cardinal nation losses RED,  one of the best ever birdoz.
Had the pleasue of shaking Reds hand bout 16 years ago @ Woods Fort Golf Course. Red looked amazing then. Truly a sad day, what a great man!!!!!!!!
We'll all miss the Redhead!!!!!!!

RIP Red.
Won't see any one coming around again like him.
Shannon said he'd ask him to join him on a hunt and Red would turn it down.......Shannon then saying he would go to where the birds were all by himself. bwaaaaaaaaaaa
On Cards win today, whoo hoo. It is PAST TIME for Matheney to start benching the guys....any guys....who are out there unfocused and making 101 mental errors. So far, another season of acceptability, no messages sent, protecting his players. These guys don't need protection, they need a kick in the balls.

Stranger things have happened but I wouldn't bet a plug nickel on 'em. The fact that they are as bad as they are and still only 4 games out give a glimmer of hope ... but just a glimmer...

I see the west siders are busy here eating popcorn, while their team is well on their way to 100 losses on the year. Is it Nickle beer night at the K yet. Asking for a friend of course.
