Are you bleeping kidding me? That stinking Schwarber homers to win the game. 6 runs after 2 outs and up 4 runs? New closer and Marmol GONE. DISGUSTING. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING. Got lucky didn't lose that last game against the Reds. O'Brien had 2 days to recoup from that Thursday garbage against Cincy.

[Joe Shlabotnik]

I would fire everyone

Lol. This is a rebuild. Winning means next to nothing. The only question Oli should be asking is "What did you learn today?"

[jagtrader]

What's to say? One team tries to win. One wants to build the cheapest team possible. Year 4 of irrelevance.

[Birds67]

Get Yadi in there as manager. Smarter baseball man than that stinking Marmol. Pitchers would learn more under him than the current staff.

Agree with that!

[WAR God]

As much as I love Yadi, I could not stomach his inevitable firing. Nor can I envision a scenario where he is not feuding with the front office and/or other coaching staff within months.

Damn…

Double or triple damn.

We’re now in quadruple damn territory (quote is from game 2 of Monday’s doubleheader).

I picked a good weekend to be off the grid.

The Cards are now 66-66. The DeWitts are happy with that. Why can't you be?

5.5 back of the 3rd wild card. What little hope there was completely vanished after today's FUBAR.

As far as Marmol, he makes me long for the days of Vern Rapp.
Every time I hear what a great manager he is, I want to break something!

That's the night that the lights went out in Georg...Philadelphia.

[ghostrunner]

Yeah. That series feels like the nail in the coffin for this season.
