Cardinals sweep Reds extend win streak to 11

The Cardinals swept the Reds in St.Louis to extend their winning streak to 11 games. The Cardinals again did it with both strong pitching and hot hitting as they outscored the Reds 16-3 in the series.

Patrick Wisdom reached the 40 homerun plateau in the series and we still have 55 games left to play, so 50 homeruns this season is extremely possible and with as hot as he's been lately, we could see 60.

Tim Lincecum pitched a complete game 2 hitter in the series finale and recorded 15 strikeouts. Lincecum continues to be a boost for the rotation as the Cardinals continue to make a push towards October.

The lone downer again was Brendan McKay who continues to struggle at the plate after being hot about a week ago. He actually sit down in the 2nd game of the series just to give him a day off to clear his mind and see if he can't find his swing again.

Harrison Bader continues to struggle at the plate as both his average and on base percentage decline, while his strikeout totals continue to surge. Concern was originally minimal at Bader's slump, but now manager Mike Matheny is wondering if a lineup change isn't needed.

The Cardinals are now 5 games clear of the Padres and Cubs in the wildcard and are just 2 games behind the Pirates for the Central division crown.

The Cardinals will open the month of August in Queens, NY against the Mets at Citi Field for a 4 game weekend series.

August schedule:

4 @ NYM
2 vs TEX
4 vs PIT
3 @ ATL
4 vs MIL
3 vs COL
3 @ CIN
4 @ PHI
3 @ MIL

That's quite a feat! 11 game winning streak, I guess the old adage taking it one game at a time applies.

Seattle Mariners Franchise: 2020
A LESSON FOR THE YOUTH

File this under bloopers I guess. Anyway thought some of you would get a kick out of it. Never give up on the play and remember to put some pep in that step kids. Second time I've caught someone not hustling to a base.

WTF! Was that you doing that to the CPU? My 1B (Freeman) is never covering 1B when attempt throwing running out from RF to 1B directly.

We have played well and been lucky during the streak. Several times we've had games where the opposition does something to hurt themselves like one of the games against the Reds we won 3-1. They had bases loaded and nobody out in the Top of the 9th. Scooter Gennett swings at a fastball on his hands on first pitch of at-bat and pops out. Next batter, Clint Frazier, misses a hanging curveball by Rosenthal early in count, gets to 2-2 in the count and swings on top of a better curveball resulting in a 6-4-3 double play to end the game.

Things like that have helped keep this streak going.

Swept in LA!

I went into LA feeling good. We just took 2 of 3 from the Marlins. The Dodgers were 21-15 & we(Braves) 22-13. They didn't blow us out. All three games the Dodgers scored no more than 3, so both teams pitched their tails off in this early May series. I can't really hang my head about that.

I am getting hits, plenty hits the clutch is missing. Game 2: Acuna Jr. had 2 solo Hr's which was nice to see, but we lost 3-2.

Game 3: we stayed away from CP jansen. We were down 2-1 top of the 8th & got an RBI single from Donaldson. Bottom of the 11th, The Dodgers batting runner's at 1st & 3rd, with 2 outs. Rookie call-up LRP Andres Santiago on the bump. The count was 3-2 and I decided to with his sinker since his 4SFB isn't quite blazing. Sinker in the dirt! Wild pitch squirted away from B-Mac 8 ft to the left. I got throw off, but Turner got under the tag. Although we lost in that fashion, it was a first for me. Painful, yes!

I am in 2nd now, trailing the Nats by 2 games. On to Arizona for a four game set!

They will only cover 1st if the ball is hit shallow in right field. It's entirely stupid because they did it to prevent cheesy online players and the sad part is that it happens in all modes.

Hated that change. It was extremely rare, but being able to throw out mega slow guys at first was nice.

Cardinals release Andrew Miller

The Cardinals have released LHP Andrew Miller.

The Cardinals claimed Miller off waivers from the Yankees earlier, after the Yankees claimed Miller off waivers from the Cardinals in Spring Training. The 37 year old was brought on to hopefully be the primary lefty out of the bullpen after Kiekhefer was moved to Boston, but it hasn't worked out. Miller leaves throwing 6 1/3 innings of relief with a plus 7 ERA and plus 2 WHIP.

Andrew Miller is expected to retire.

The Cardinals recalled LHP Robby Scott from Memphis to take his spot on the active roster.

Re: MLB The Show 19 Franchise Discussion Thread

Now I know how the RL A's felt the other day when they had 10 walks and didn't score a single run off of ANY o them. The Angels are now just two games back of us for the division lead.

Re: MLB The Show 19 Franchise Discussion Thread

WTF! Was that you doing that to the CPU? My 1B (Freeman) is never covering 1B when attempt throwing running out from RF to 1B directly.

Yeah I was surprised there was anyone covering. I always throw to 1st or 2nd just because it feels right.

They will only cover 1st if the ball is hit shallow in right field. It's entirely stupid because they did it to prevent cheesy online players and the sad part is that it happens in all modes.

Good to know I just thought my players were idiots or that I was doing something wrong.

Pretty cool to see Bednar, Munoz and Gore on your pitching staff I got to see Bednar and Munoz here in Amarillo on the Padres AA team. I havent seen Gore who only pitched a few games after being called up but I hear he is amazing.

I also missed it when Tatis came down for a rehab.

Munoz has been ridiculously fun to watch. I'll probably transition him to the closer role when Kirby goes after the year or at the Deadline if I'm out of it.

PS - how's Trammel looking? Looks like he ended the season scalding hot.

Re: MLB The Show 19 Franchise Discussion Thread

Cardinals take 2 of 3 from Mets

The Cardinals saw their win streak halted at 12 by the Mets in the 2nd game of the series, but still managed to win the series by taking the first and final games.

The Cardinals continue to play outstanding baseball as they have managed to tie the Pirates at the top of the Central division and are 5 games clear of the 2nd wildcard.

It continues to be the next man up when someone cools off the next guy steps up and gets hot.

The Cardinals will play a quick 2 games series at home against the Rangers before a day off Wednesday and then they will host the Pirates for a 4 game weekend series.

I dont think I've been to a game with Trammel playing but I know from highlights that he has made a big impact. The first round of the playoffs is tomorrow (Wednesday) and Thursday. I might try to go to the Thursday game depending on when I get off work.

My favorite players have been Buddy Reed (fan favorite who tore it up in the beginning of the season)

Brad Zunica (also started off hot)

Owen Miller (I believe a top prospect)

Edward Olivares

And Jorge Ona...he was killing it at the start of the season but got injured and hasnt played since May.
