Yelich sucks

Seasons over for the brewers. Few division leaders are sellers at the deadline.

[Jockey]

Yeah, I think the trade with SD was a concession for this season.

[panda]

Norwich wins again. Attanasio is on fire

[shoothoops]

AP.........  1.197 OPS vs lefties.

Steroids are awesome. Need Yeli and Hiura to find Braun's dealer's number again. Seems like Pujols might be monopolizing the supply.

He stays on his current cycle and he'll get to 700 this year.

FWIW they've won the trade so far.  I guess Hader could still come on strong or be good next year, but he was never going to be a Brewer in 2023.

Its hard to see a path to upgrading that roster at the deadline that would have had enough statistical impact to realistically improve their chances. The Brewers are the essence of a three true outcomes team.  A hilarious stat - the Brewers are T-6 in baseball in only three offensive categories: HRs, Walks, and most strikeouts. They're all-in on streakiness and hoping to get hot at the right time.  Nothing they could have done at the deadline could have balanced that offense out in any meaningful way.

It's mostly about helping their club win some games. Six ninety whatever vs seven hundred whatever doesn't matter much. Aything else individually is just cake icing.

He did get to 711 regular season and post season combined, home runs so far, which puts him 4th all time in that. He'll mostly play vs lefties.

Had good seats today. Pics were fun to take. Can't believe a cellphone could capture this clear of a 95mph fastball.

The great St. Louis leader, Yadi Molina, chooses to watch basketball over playing for his Cardinals during the heat of a pennant race.

Sad!

[Jockey]

Sad!

He was trained by the legendary Tony LaRussa. TLR taught him to fall asleep in the dugout when he needed a break from the game - Yadi just took it a step further.

Congratulations to Vaqueros de Bayamón for winning the Baloncesto Superior Nacional for the 2nd time in 3 years under the ownership of Yadier Molina. Great accomplishment.

And congratulations to soon to be Major League Baseball Hall of Famer, Yadier Molina, for passing St. Louisan Yogi Berri on the all time catcher's hit list this past week.

I hope you aren't pretending that Yadi is even in the same universe as Yogi.

Yogi has an OPS over 100 pts. higher than Yadi.

Yougi had an OPS+ of 125. Yadi is 96 (below average MLB hitter).

Yadi #22 on the all-time list between Kendall and Porter. Not even the best ever Cardinal or Rican catcher.

Yadi spends most of his energy cheating and instigating fights with umpires and the opposition.  Only nerds worry about production

That's all about his responsibility to police the Unwritten Rules. The game would be in shambles if he didn't do that.

We'd have guys disrespecting the game by watching home runs like below.

Rules apply for thee, not me.  Really applies to the whole ethos of Cardinals fandom on and off the field
