Have to watch the Cubs feed on extra innings. They lead off the broadcast showing the Cubs celebrating their Division championship at Bush stadium. Players running around with the W flag. Taking pics on the pitching mound etc.
Wonder if any of the Cardinal players were upset about that?

Of course that is insane, he’s off to a hot start. I wasn’t suggesting those numbers are sustainable. As mentioned earlier in the thread he has been striking out in past years at roughly a 33% clip. His OBP was something he wanted to improve on this year. To separate himself from Grichuk comparisons he needs to show a lower k rate and take more walks. His power is as advertised for sure.

Fowler/Pham/Carp looked like little league ball players out there on the base paths in the 3rd. Gave up at least a run with their keystone cope routine.

hes getting beat with fastballs. If he can’t hit a fastball consistently he wouldn’t have made it past “A” ball. Just a slump.
