Kennedy is hitting what -- .140 right now? Clearly now is not the time gauge whether or not he's going to get consistent playing time.

If he's struggling to begin with, I see no point in throwing him out there against lefties (against which he loses 30 points of AVG and 100 points of OPS in his career).

That's on its way up. Let's go Red Birds.

Pretty amazing that the Cards are 4-4 and in 1st place in the Central if you take that stat into consideration..

Shows how good our starting pitching has been as well...

Actually, it's gone down each day since Friday.

My gosh, the Pirates, one of the worst teams in MLB, have been shutting down the offense. Thankfully their offense has been even worse.

What?

Baseball is better on radio IMO.

Not for me. I like to watch the movement of the pitches and gauge how a pitcher is attacking a hitter. Radio announcers don't tell me what I can usually see for myself. They don't have time.

Exactly. The offense is rivaling the M's and Nats.
