Sierra didnt start vs RH newbie.
- Thread starter Duck_walk
- Start date
Im pretty sure they are 5-0 with Sierra starting. Their only loss was not starting him against the right hander.
No kidding. Right now, any lineup that doesn't include Pham and Sierra in the outfield is just dumb. Team looks way different with those two guys on the field. Won't last, but fun while it does.Seems to be working pretty good to me.
I don't see where Peralta fits on this club anymore. The outfield has a logjam and I fully expect them to send the kid down, but surely it won't be back to A-ball. Pham has to stay so maybe they'll send pitcher out.Loooooong rehab for lead foot Piscotty.
Pretty sure they just extended Peralta's rehab assignment. Would imagine Piscotty will get a long one as well. Think I heard BenFred say that on TMA yesterday. It all makes sense. Gives them time to get ready. Gives Sierra time to come back to planet Earth. One of Soco or SammyT goes down with Sierra when Piscotty and Peralta are both available. Then the other of Soco/SammyT goes when Lyons comes back. I really, really hope Sierra keeps hitting and running like crazy, just so MO looks like an idiot when he sends him down.
Bahahaha. Agreed. 30+ Soco should be the goner one way or the other. With Tui's improved curve ball Soco is worthless to the team.
I suspect Sierra goes down for Pisc at some point
Peralta may want to get used to the minors
Honny should never see another AB as a Cardinal unless they are over come with injuries
Cards website says Peralta and Piscotty are expected to return to the Cardinals this weekend.

I can't imagine they'll continue to carry 13 pitchers. Just dumb to limit your bench options that much. I can see them going to 12 and giving Peralta a go off the bench. It makes sense to have a righty with potential pop there. A lot more sense than it makes to carry a reliever you'd never put in a situation that matters. And just think, with four bench options, the Matheneging double-switches will be a thing of beauty!
I'll keep saying it, Sierra going down while he's hitting is just bat crap crazy. Piscotty can come up for one of the crappy relievers. Sierra will come back to Earth at some point, and when he does you can promote Peralta. If he doesn't, Peralta can rot in Memphis or get DFA'd.
Cards site also said they would send Sierra and a pitcher out when these guys return.

Needs to be a pitcher for Piscotty. And Sierra needs to stay until he cools off. Gives Peralta plenty of time too. MO and the Birds are going to look like idiots if Sierra goes down playing like he is right now. As he's been for seven games, it's impossible to say he's not one of the three best options in the OF.
Well they did it. Brought back Peralta and sent the kid to Springfield. Why not send out a pitcher for Peralta and wait for Piscotty to come back before sending out the fastest guy in the OF.
Maybe they wanted him to go back on a high note and not an ofer streak.Well they did it. Brought back Peralta and sent the kid to Springfield. Why not send out a pitcher for Peralta and wait for Piscotty to come back before sending out the fastest guy in the OF.

Matheneging...Seemed to work out well though.
Best part is, he doubled down on Matheneging and ran SammyT out there. Think we may have had a Pete Rose situation last night. Might wanna check MMs accounts for a big deposit this morning.
