    Was it last season when some of us were protesting him and got a lot of pushback?

    He’s just....here. And there hasn’t been anyone better to replace him...which sure would be nice.

    It looks great when he gets it over the shift. Otherwise I disagree.

    I thought giving up switch hitting would help Barnhart but it hasn't

    I imagine part of it is feeling like Barnhart's comfort factor with the pitching is really important but man this lineup is struggling enough without his wet noodle bat to add to that.

    The pitchers seem to do pretty well with Casali behind the plate.

    And I'm sure Tyler Stephenson is an agreeable enough guy.

    Darvish wanted nothing to do with Winker there. Winker walks.

    Bell thinks which side you bat from is as important as your result. He has at least shown some courage to vary from that lately.

    True. I just think unless he really gets his mojo back he should just try to go full slugger.

    Obviously a bit more important to take care of business yourself but the Cardinals just lost to Cleveland.

    The Cards lost to the Indians.

    So that's good.

    Weird how we are a month into the season but the games now have that “end of season” sunlight to them.

    That'll do Shogo, that'll do.

    Akiyama saves a hit in center.
