I think the FO is well aware but it is tough to make significant upgrades in early June. Not many teams looking to deal.

Agreed, but good execution by Ryan Hanigan.

I don't know folks, I'm not a fan of the bunt there. Hanigan gets on base frequently, do you give him up there? Dubious.

Let's hope it works.

IMO, not a horrendous call in this situation. Hanigan is a big DP candidate, and against a righty, isn't a complete OBP machine. In a 1 run game, him moving the runner over isn't a complete comprimise of the value of his at-bat.

Terrible decision to give up Hanigan there. Big hole on the right side is one he can hit with frequency.

No, not horrendous - I just hate the sacrifice for regular hitters unless its a really lousy hitter. But it DOES avoid the DP

Isn't the pitcher's spot up? Not Constanzo, no! Oh, forgot, he's sent down.

Frazier rips a double down the left field line. He roped that one.

Tomlin has set down the Cards foir 6 innings on 65 poitches, leading 4-0.

Tomlin had a 5+ ERA coming into the game, and the Cards have as good an offense in the league.

What are those fans saying?
