Fingers crossed, but Amir drew a tough assignment. A Friday night game the first week of the season in St. Louis. For a guy who walked 4.1 per 9 last year in AAA, I'm worried things could snowball quickly.

Is St.Louis down this year? I thought I read in some of the prediction threads that they are down this year.

Originally Price said that he wanted a veteran (Arroyo) to pitch the Cardinals home opener. When and why did that change?

Wonder who's decision that was?

Not sure there was a decision. Either it was a missed safety squeeze. Or maybe Cozart was just faking down the line for whatever reason.

Don't know but do you think they have a sign for it other than the third base coaching walking to both players and telling them the play? Hardly discrete

i hope they don't have a sign for the miss the bunt and get thrown out wandering off the bag play

Fingers crossed, but Amir drew a tough assignment. A Friday night game the first week of the season in St. Louis. For a guy who walked 4.1 per 9 last year in AAA, I'm worried things could snowball quickly.

You wonder about plays like that. Probably Joey thought nobody was paying attention. Or maybe he thought the third baseman was out of position due to the shift on Schebler.

Obviously not a hit and run play or a planned steal.

I like Peraza but I would rather have a more patient hitter batting second. Winker or Herrera are candidates eventually.

I want Billy to have lots of chances to run.

Peraza is off a bit slowly, but he'll start with the line drives soon.
