They are saving twelve innings from the DHs but these pitchers have not been active from what we were told.

45 day IL for a sprained thumb? Uh oh. Maybe time for the other UCL surgery. The one in the thumb.

Flaherty goes Monday 

They need wins over cubs so it makes sense.  I thought they would go 3 today and 3 Wednesday with both starters.

Hoping Flores gets the start for the 2nd game, excited to see him pitch

Ian Hamilton logged four innings after sitting out last year from a car crash and line drive to the head. See ya later buddy.

Eloy getting warmer at the plate. But hey, let's stick Encarnacion ahead of him in the lineup. (I know.. not a big deal. Just let me b****. )

Shoulder injury (seems he can’t catch a break) the likely reason Ian Hamilton’s velo was 93-95 mph his last time out.

so this game is 100% a go correct?

I agree. My only thought is that Ricky might be trying to split up the guys who can and can’t take a walk. 

 

Wainwright may be kind of guy who gives us fits. I expect him to live on outside corner and let it break further away. Gotta be patient or look for it and go the other way. 

Looking at the weather around here in the far west burbs I'd be surprised if they got two in today.

I’d be terrified as a Cards fan right now. Haven’t played in weeks and now eight games in five days against two tough teams (assuming the non-shitty version of our team shows up). They’ve played five games and their season could be effectively over by Wednesday. Weird year.

 

Baby blue road jerseys will never be ok to me...

Wtf are the cards wearing?

 

Did the Cardinals get new jerseys? I actually really like them

Come on gio way too many walks.

We really need to stop walking leadoff guys.

Alternative.

 

Giolito, let's try to get through this first inning with 0-1 runs surrendered.   Hate walks leading off the game for the opposition.

Horrible pitch selection ffs

The old 0-2 right down the middle fastball trick.
