then you laugh at someone calling in and saying the play by play guy sux! (Chip) which for some reason takes a day off and we thought he quit and went back to the ATL! then he's in the crowd next to brad thompson who sux! then we have to listen to jim edmonds and whomever ackerman is it!! everything about this season is not exciting bring back Danny Mac …. he was never drunk at work give the guy a break he's the best chip carey cant announce gravers and cubs games for all I care he sounds like a douche anyways with that john o hurley game show voice!!! everything sux! tell me im wrong
If you all think this is a horrible start to a season, I've seen worse in my 50-plus years as a Cardinals fan. In particular was the start of the 1973 season, exactly 50 years ago, where the Cardinals lost 25 of their first 30 games (5-25, a .167 winning percentage). They finished the season 81-81, good for 2nd place one and a half games behind the Mets in the Eastern Division, who won the division with a 82-79 record. The Mets defeated the Western Division champion Cincinnati Reds (99-63 record) 3 games to 2 in the LCS, then lost the World Series 4 games to 3 to Tony LaRussa's Oakland A.'s.. You fans younger than I (age 63) are terribly spoiled by the success that the Cardinals have enjoyed the last quarter of a century.
5/6/2023 – winning percentage now .303 which when extrapolated over a full season equates to a 49 -113 record which would place this team among the top 4 worst (franchise) teams of all time according to baseball reference with only 3 of the dreadful legacy St Louis Browns teams from 1895, 1898 and 1897 having a lower season winning percentage!!! And we are talking about teams that were then not even known as he Cardinals but which Baseball Reference includes as legacy teams under the Cardinal banner. This is now the worst team actually named the Cardinals in the history of the franchise dating back 123 years to 1900. But wait, it is worse than that as this team now ranks as the 138th worst winnig percentage record in 143 Seasons with only 3 St Louis Browns teams that were worse with a sub .300 winning percentage.
I mean how does a modern Cardinals team manage to such so bad – what is the secret sauce????
Structurally, the new schedule means that the Cardinals no longer can feast on the weak teams in the NL Center and they play all teams in both leagues and they cannot slide by with mediocre talent and a woefully inadequate pitching.
Now some bright spots. Contreras is a gamer and Goldiie looks like his MVP self and Nolan A seems to be coming around.
Now for the bad news – Tyler O'Neill is not a gamer and probably is never going hit more than .250. The bullpen is inconsistent and the starting rotation cannot pitch a shutout which is about the only way this team can win a game.
This years team could be another version of the 1973 Cardinals. Look them up and see what I mean. Marmol and Mo need to do something because if they decide they are going play piss poor all summer long, fan interest and stadium attendance will more than likely decline.
Bring back Dan Mcglaughlin! I have the mlb app and watch the games but I guess I haven’t been missing much? I went down to Jupiter FL and they looked great down there
Tell Jim thanks for getting the wave going last night. It's very simple this team is very poorly coached. I really don't care if it upsets Ollie, the way they are playing is a direct reflection of him and the coaching staff. Apparently the Cardinals coaching staff has a "let them hit" strategy SMH. I'm being serious by the way they actually have this PHILOSOPHY in mlb with the best hitters in the world.
Hey all, I'm from the future: fear not, for we continue the trend of losing the opening series against the Tigers, in another heartbreaking, tease of a game, where there is back and forth but we lose again because of thr god-damn pitching.
44:13 remember… NO ONE SAW 700!! THEY PAID THE DODGERS OFF TO GET 700 ON APPLE TV. It's a conspiracy. No Danny Mac call for all time, no watching it live. BS.
HOLD on we have had a Cardinals team that have hit the playoffs for decades. one bad season and you punks want to put them down? Appreciate your team. Guess what you are all getting OLD. The team looks terrible but be respectful. Mormal is the issue.. He has no idea how to manage a MLB team. He needs to go back and coach little leagues. but the boys are absolutely SUCKING and they need to taker responsibility
What is this crap about moving WC to DH? He came here wanting to replace Yadi and instead we make AK the primary catcher a month into his first season? That is their response to this dumpster fire? And are we supposed to be surprised when he asks for a trade?
10-24 isn't acceptable. What us it going to take to fire Marmol? We need a leader, someone that can move the Cardinals forward, not seeing it with Marmol. Get rid of him already!
Man listen, I’m not gonna blame Willson or the pitching coach. And one of the most ridiculous things I’ve ever heard is he is not framing pitches cleanly. Maybe if the pitchers pitch strikes then we wouldn’t be in this discussion. Pitchers need to pitch and stop throwing to the batter. Willson is not to blame here

Rightsholder talk needs to stop!
Out of ways to describe how bad the Cardinals are? I have one.
The White Sox are doing better.

Cardinals continue to set records for being bad. Accept it.
With all the poor play and the bad luck, I find myself liking how the team doesn't give up.
On the plus side, Arenado did anything today

We're all just getting Angry and Frustrated. 2006 WS champs. Reg season record 83-78 😒. It can be done 😒.
10-24 isn't acceptable. What us it going to take to fire Marmol? We need a leader, someone that can move the Cardinals forward, not seeing it with Marmol. Get rid of him already!
Long live Mike Shannon and the 1964 st Louis Cardinals. Greatest team in history. Marlow, you need to quit
Fire Mo,Oli,Jack.
Cincy lost 22 of first 28 last season , did they turn it around?
Yes and no
They lost 100 games instead of 140 games lol
So I can see a mild turnaround
A good day at work is not as good as a bad day at the ball park…….GO CARDS.
