Ugh. Yadi, DeJong, and 5 other Cardinals players tested positive for COVID-19.



If Rob Manfred does not cancel the season, Congress should step in and do it for him.

Same with Roger Goodell and the NFL.

Congress has given itself all sorts of powers over the years that it doesn't actually have.

Even if Congress had this authority (they don't), a certain incumbent President would 100% veto.

The Cardinals will end up playing 5-inning triple-headers everyday in September Tongue

If the Marlins can just pare their schedule down to Mets and Orioles with timely Covid breaks, they could win the East.

Tigers are up 5-0 with no outs in the Top 1 5 runs on 4 homeruns of the first 5 batters.

I believe this matches their entire home-run output from after the Castellanos trade last year.

Meanwhile, my fantasy team is losing this week because Jack Flaherty and the Cardinals have been idle this past week.

Up 5-3 in the top of the 7th (new 9th), runner on second, the tying run at the plate is Aaron Judge — bring in Anderson, he gets the K and the W. As many people are now saying:

Mookie Betts didnt extend his hitting streak and failed to hit in the clutch, when Dodgers down by 1. He didnt hit a home run when needed. As I stated earlier, it's hard to judge Mookie Betts due to fact he had Bougart on Boston as well. Turner isnt that type of switch hitter, who can hit both left and right

In today's example of strange records that are almost certain to fall during this odd season of ours: Barry Bonds & Mike Piazza share the career record for most home runs in the NL by a DH, with 10 each. Kyle Schwarber has 9.

How...how are your baseball takes even better than your political takes.

I didn't think it was possible.

I saw this exact comment on Reddit and as the people in the thread told the OP, F*** Castellanos all he did was b**** until he was traded he is a jerk and I'm happy whenever he goes 0/4.

Dodgers losing again and Betts havent hit hot homeruns. The abscense of Homeruns is heartwrenching since there are not any fans. Bellinger and Turner1 homerun between the two. Last yr and 2018, August was the month, Homeruns were hit

Cardinals came back from their hiatus, and won 5-1 in their first game of the twinbill against the White Sox.
