lol.................run ?......I call it shuffling....I really had hoped Albert would have hit one in the gap to watch he and Molina run.
Didn’t get to watch the reunion last night. We’re Silent George and Tito Landrum there? I think Tito was on that team. I know Forsch and Porter have passed away. Anyone else? Just remembered David Green passed away too, I think.
Remember listening to a game.The only others that have passed away that you haven't mentioned yet are Joaquin Andujar and Kelly Paris.
I don't know if George Hendrick was there or not but my favorite story about him involved that 1982 series. Hendrick was playing right field that game. After Sutter strikes out Gorman Thomas, Hendrick turns around goes out the right field gate at old Busch, gets in his car, and leaves the park still wearing his uniform. He wasn't part of any of the postgame celebration in the locker room.
TON blasted one out to tie the game , but him , Edman and Knizner need to pick up the pace if the Cardinals are gonna make the playoffs and do some damage there .It’s really sad, but you’ve got 3 guys in the lineup today that will give you little to nothing offensively today.
I knew I would break the jinx!!!!
I don't think he will play another season, but it'd be a bit of a bummer if he ends up just a handful of homers away from 700, which seems to be the most likely result at the end of this season.As Edmonds said earlier, Albert should reconsider this retirement thing.

Not being an expert by any means, I think Dakota should be sent down for a couple of weeks to clear his head and work things out. It seems to have helped DeJong.Cardinals notebook: Rotation shift maximizes lefty starts, gets Dakota Hudson time to retool
Marmol says he's "leaning toward" skipping Hudson's start this week so the right-hander can work on sharpening his approach vs. lefties.www.stltoday.com

To clear time for Dakota Hudson to make adjustments they feel ultimately will help him within starts, the Cardinals are “leaning toward” skipping his next scheduled start, his manager said.
With an off day Monday and a wish to maximize the appearances of newcomers Jose Quintana and Jordan Montgomery, the Cardinals plan to rearrange their pitching rotation and not have Hudson make his next turn. The Cardinals will begin this week’s visit from Colorado with Quintana starting Tuesday and can have Montgomery and Adam Wainwright on normal rest for the remainder of the three-game series.
That frees up Hudson to throw an additional bullpen session before returning to the rotation on the upcoming trip.
“It would be good to give him extra time — that’s a big part of it,” Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said. “(You could) go two ways. The extra touches there could help him. He’s working on figuring some stuff out, and getting back out there could be useful. But doing an extra bullpen session could also help.”
During his start at Coors Field last week, Hudson allowed only two runs on four hits and utilized his slider on the way to a season-high six strikeouts. The right-hander did what coaches have asked him to do and worked with a far swifter pace, and he said afterward that he felt the difference of “the defense engaged, kept the ball on the ground for the most part and trying to do what I can to help win a game.” He also walked four batters — three of them on four pitches.
I also feel Edman needs to clear his head too. Carlson might also need a clearing of the head.Not being an expert by any means, I think Dakota should be sent down for a couple of weeks to clear his head and work things out. It seems to have helped DeJong.
I don't disagree but after all the reports including Carlson in a trade for Soto was a nonstarter, it'll take multiple years of him doing a 2020-early 2022 Paul DeJong impersonation for him to get sent down for anything other than a rehab assignment.I also feel Edman needs to clear his head too. Carlson might also need a clearing of the head.
