Let the discussion commence...
I think Im ok with Lance Lynn going Game 1. If Wainwright can't pitch by Game 2, though, then that starts to be a big problem.
This kinda feels like the Spurs vs the Patriots. I hope other fans enjoy it but I'm not expecting as much outside enthusiasm for this one as the Royals O's series.
Off the top of my head:Clayton,
Who are the Card players we should be looking at during the series? What are some lingering stories that may play a factor (hot/cold player, injuries, nobodies that are spiking at the right time)?
Is Panik supposed to ever develop power or is he expected to really only be a singles guy? He has a good swing that I would expect could carry some balls and he is a decent size. Very nice hitter though.
If he could even display something similar to what Danny Santana showed this year, he would be dangerous
I think the Cards will make it back to the WS . I have nothing against SF. In fact I bet on them more then a few times this summer.
If you bet on them in June or July, no wonder you are picking the Cards now, and I don't believe you when you say "nothing against SF".
Anyone who bet ON the Giants n June or July should be looking to hire a hitman right about now...
I didn't say that I had won. Maybe you should put a hit on you self because Frisos season will be over when this series is complete. Have the phone # ready''speed dial'' when SF's last out happens.
I'm not at all sold on SF. For what it's worth, the Rockies had a winning season record against them this year which in itself is pretty pathetic. Hoping the Cards destroy the Giants..
I had the Cardinals penciled in as 'happy to make the playoffs' this year. They've battled through injuries and maybe no less than 3 or 4 underachieving players. The Cardinals in the last series against the Dodgers looked better than the Cardinals that went to the World Series last year, though, so they've been a hard team to peg, too.Right now, they are playing with heart, but in a small sample size anything can happen.
FTR, the Giants took the season series against the Cards.
Wainwright good to go as expected.
