Just look at what they paid Pujols for his last year ($2.5 million) and compare that to what they are paying Waino ($17.5 million). Who deserves to be yelled at???? Who is the sucker at this poker table? It is Mo and DeWitt!!! But don't hate on Waino for supporting his familiy!!!! Who would turn down working 9 months to make $17.5 M. Can you blame the guy??!!!
Yes, he is being paid $17,500,000.00 for a 3-2 record through 9 games and only 47 innings pitched with a 6.56 ERA!!!!!. But is that his fault or the fault of Ollie for leaving him in games beyond the 3rd or 4th innings??!!!! (He is that bad this year!!!) Or for starting him against good hitting clubs with winning records???!! I think Waino is great at throwing curve ball batting practice this year but not for winning games. Doubt he wins 200 games at this pace of bed wetting.
As for deactivating his twitter account….who cares!!! Show me any man-child sports moron on Twitter and I will show you Elon Musk and his ilk of man-children seeking attention.🚽 Twitter is for people sitting on toilets who do their best thinking🚽 when defecating.💩💩 I don't know any serious adults who waste time on Twitter. You might as well spend time admiring your own turds like a toddler being potty trained.
The real question is why a guy making 17.5 cares about what Twitter users write. Laugh all the way to the bank and remember how to throw UNHITTABLE strikes!!!
I seen a local Fox affiliate in St Louis do a segment on this this morning. The way it was presented I thought they was going to start a "Go Fund Me Page" for Waino? I'm not a Tweeter user but all my kids and grandchildren are. I don't think this is going to go the sympathy route for Waino because of what he was firing off while he was injured? I left baseball after 40 years in 2020 for reasons you can probably guess? But when Albert came back so did I. It reminded me of McGuire and Sosa because you had non-fans like my wife ask me "Did he hit another one" every morning. IT GAVE ME A REASON TO LOVE BASEBALL AGAIN! Now we have this. In my opinion what was the greatest baseball organization next to the Yankees reduced to a team with bumbling "Coaches". Confused player's. A front office more worried about DEI and ESG scores. And now little kid crap over what should be a first vote Red Jacket in the Cardinals HOF reduced to a "Whoa is me" moment because you threw rocks and when you didn't produce fans threw those rocks back at you and you jumped the ship when it got real. Makes me wish I would have just stayed away and kept baseball as I remembered it and this isn't it! I said yesterday NO ONE should threaten another over a baseball game! That's wrong and it shows how soon narrow minded people forget. The guy has been a foundation for this club and that should never be forgotten. But the first thing I thought of when I heard Waino deleted his account was Michael Jordan. Why? Remember when he would play at the Garden against the Knicks and Spike Lee use to heckle him? MJ wouldn't argue or get mad…….He'd just drop 50 points on the Knicks for the win and Mr Lee wouldn't open his soup cooler anymore. Waino Buddy, you just stayed one year too long.
I just want to present another reason why he may have deleted his Twitter account. His children reading the twitter account. I know I would would to shield my child from these hateful tweets.
It isn’t exactly like he’s the only Cardinals pitcher having a bad year. Probably in 20/20 hindsight he should have retired last season with Yadi and Albert. As of right now what pitcher on either the Memphis or MLB roster who would be much better, if any?
I'm a listener but you all sound like teenage girls with your Twitter talk.
dumpter fire show
worst show of MLB cities
Not saying it's right but he brought it on himself with the tweet he made in the minors about how he sees the comments and he's coming with his war paint on. Thus suggesting his old ass was gonna turn the ship around. Then since he got up here for 2023 he's got a 6.00 era and is just as big of a problem as Matz
NEWS FLASH!! Waino deletes twitter account…. Done…..
People are too ugly!!!
and I might add – the guys on your You Tube channel videos.
Why is the media and fans hell bent on trading Flaherty and Hicks ? Let me in on the inside real talk. Lane Thomas ……really lol
Cole is a great addition to the family. Always love listening 😂
What do people show up to work on their day off and then call in sick the day they gotta work? It doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to see how dumb that is.
Twitter is toxic and anyone that doesn't participate or no longer wants to participate should be considered wise.
Still talking about this? Why not tell Kiz what yll think of him and the team. Ask him legit questions. Comes across fake. Constantly trashing team. Cant listen anymore.
Epic ramble by Charlie at the end about how internet trolls are the loud minority and total losers!
All I have to say to Adam Wainwright and every other professional player: YOU ARE THE PROFESSIONALS! No matter how much baseball I have played or I have watched, I AM NOT QUALIFIED TO JUDGE YOU! Don’t listen to the idiots out there! But, I think the only way you can do that is to do what most of us university professors decided to do: WE IGNORE ABOUT 95.9% of what students (ranging from 18 to 24 and totally inexperienced) have to say about teaching. As one colleague once said at his retirement party: “And the best thing is that I have arrived at the point in my life when I will no longer be judged by 18-year old students who have far too often paid little attention to what I have said, have spent far too little time reading a text or doing home work, yet wonder why I am so incompetent. I had to be because they were brilliant but just barely earned (or were gifted, in our era of grade inflation) a B-. I was a catcher; I never understood how pitchers did what they did at such a high level! We are passionate; we love our Cardinals. But don’t pay too much attention to us, because we are incompetent at everything but complaining. Besides, we hold most of our angry feedback for managers, both general and field managers! Ignore us; quit listening to the toxic fan who never accomplished anything good in life. Just keep playing until you guys turn it around! MANY OF US WILL BE WITH YOU TO THE END!
its not over by daughtry – 2023 cardinals
1 more game like the last 2 an I think he will retire
I never understood why anyone would waste their time with Twitter.
