Go Cardinals!!!

Go Wainwright- good candidate for 2020 SP acquisition #2?

[T.G.]

Wainwright is a "hoss." Not a lot of those in MLB these days.

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Wainwright seems to have lost the strike zone, or maybe the wheels have fallen off his wagon.

[AngelsLakersFan]

Who is managing the Cardinals? How do you let Wainright get to 120 pitches with the bases loaded in a one run game in the 8th inning? Asleep at the wheel.

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Well the Braves blow their chance...

[Claude]

38 year old Wainwright pitched his heart out today. He threw 120 pitches. That’s old school baseball right there. unpussified. 

[Bronson]

And that ladies and gentleman is a prime example of over thinking and over managing.

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

And Wainwright's brilliant game is for not.

Yup and it was stupid too. He nearly blew the game at the end - seems like the Cards didn't know what to do after Wainwright lost it.

You hate to see something like this happen to Martinez and the Cardinals.  Class guy and organization.

Gutsy performance regardless. 

[Duren, Duren]

Give credit to Soroka. The first starter in his first playoff appearance to go at least seven innings without issuing a walk in history. Cool, calm, mixing pitches, poised at a young age.

The type of young, future top three rotation types the Angels need that could become a fixture for years. 

And low payroll costs for a number of years. Free agent veterans are needed for the Angels now, but a rotation needs to evolve with young talent, mostly at the low/mid level of the salary scale.
