Let me guess, reply guy. Am I “really living up to my account name?”

All the first year guys are wait and see. Beyond that, there’s nobody I’m FOR SURE keeping. Expendable: Scott, Gorman, Liberatore, Pages, Crooks. See what you can get: Church, Fermin, Saggese, ROB, Pallante. Look for best deal: Winn, Burley, Herrera, McGreevy, Leahy. #STLCards

JJ is a 1st year guy and not going anywhere. And I think you keep Walker. Beyond that, I’m open. People will scream “Burly!” He’s done a nice job. That makes him a great trade candidate. He’s under control thru ‘28. Do you extend a guy past 30 when you have SLG in the org? No.

I imagine the convo with Oli went like this: “We’re not going to judge you on wins & losses. We want to see what these kids can do. Test them, and let them succeed or fail.” In that regard, he’s fulfilled his mandate. But there are a relative few keepers on this team. #STTLCards

I honestly think Gastelum is the only reliever I’d keep. Mayyyybe Graceffo for another year because he’s cheap and under control. But this crop is BRUTAL. #STLCards

Oh my. Just a MOONSHOT from Alec Burleson to tie the game. Heartening! #STLCards

It hit the foul pole so it’s hard to know, but that’s as monstrous as HR as I recall seeing all year for anyone. #STLCards

I have my criticisms of Chip Caray, and you’ve heard most of them. But he’s also our guy, and I enjoy him. And I hope everything is—or will be—okay with whatever family situation he’s attending to. #STLCards

Pedro Pages deserves to be celebrated for the work that he’s done as a member of the Cardinals and for the teammates that he’s been and the role that he’s played behind the scenes for so many of his peers in what absolutely has to be his last three games on the Cardinals 40-man

I just don’t understand how Mautz is the choice in a 3-2 game with the bases loaded. But it’s also hard as a fan (who’s interested in winning the game) how rebuilding, teaching, and tempering works at the MLB level. #STLCards

Excellent stats. This is why the eye test is deceptive. #STLCards
Yeah, but he's got a 55% overall success rate. Really low. Herrera has a 62% success rate.
But admittedly he's on fire tonight.

I really needed to see Herrera crank one out. Nice job! #STLCards

Framing will probably go away as a stat because of ABS. But eventually, challenges will become part of a catcher’s WAR. I’m watching William Contreras challenge pitch after pitch and get it right. And I’ve seen nothing comparable from the Cardinals’ catching corps. #STLCards

So, there goes .500. The Cardinals will have back-to-back losing seasons for the first time since 1958-59. It could be argued that few of us expected this rebuilding team to even be this good this season. But man, this second half has been disappointing. #STLCards

Just wild swings with no approach. This is quite an ending. #STLCards
