This pregame interview with Cole praising Cards fans and Busch Stadium is just soul-crushing

I hope he’s genuinely unaware they’re all piece of poo poo chuds (sorry Pancakes)

What the gently caress Donaldson. He's made some real poo poo plays in the field recently.

I don't think I saw the play that prompted this post but that was a nice double play he just started.

There was a ball rolling foul that he decided to pick up while it was still fair and then dropped it when throwing.

But yeah that was a nice one

Ouch. Yeah, I had to step away for a bit that inning when there were 2 outs and nobody on and came in to runners on the corners very confused.

Taking that run from the Blue Jay's is just robbery by MLB. How do you reward a club for booting a ball into the stands?

I do live in Chicago but I'm from farm country in western central Illinois. My hometown is backwards enough that my girlfriend in law school (black) got called horrible racist invective by the locals when we visited and my brother-in-law (American of Pakistani descent) gets hollered at to leave the country by people in pickup trucks when he and my sister visit my parents.

What I'm saying is that I'm very aware that Cardinals' fans are often CHUD's.

I think we can win a series as long as we don't get the Dodgers and maybe the Nats.

Yeah. The good news is that we probably won't see the Dodgers or the Nats until the NLCS, at least the way the season is shaping up right now.

That assumes we don't collapse all the way into the Wild Card I guess, at which point all hope is lost.

It really is kinda wild to be 10 games back and have such a good young core of a team with Devers, Bogaerts, Mookie, Chavis and Benintendi (and even Vazquez maybe, unless he just has some of that Sandy Leon 6-month mojo going)

These past 2 games have been cathartic to say the least
