    I fear tonight is the end of the road for my cardinals. I am fairly indifferent because this year brought the trophy to St. Louis I’ve wanted my whole life...so the Redbirds get a pass for this embarrassing performance. 
    Got em right where we want em.

    Shildts post game pep talk was pretty epic.



    worst.pep.talk.ever.
    I’ve been thinking this too 
    Felt terribly forced. It’s no Craig Berube pre-game pep talk before game 7 of the cup finals.

    So the Nats pulled it together.  Is this because Bryce Harper is gone?  Says a lot about him and the talent that the Phillies had and couldn't reach the playoffs.

    Dave Martinez was probably a few more losses earlier in the season from being fired. Now they're this close to a WS appearance
    The team had injuries early and the team really wasn't hitting.

    Robles didn't hit all that great in the begining, Rendon turned it on later, Turner was hurt.

    The whole team finally came around and started to play.  I would expect the team to do much better next year.

    Turner, Robles, Soto and Kieboom should be fun to watch next year w Rendon.
    When has injuries and team not hitting save a manager's job. Rarely. Especially when he missed the playoffs with a playoff team.

    You think they re-sign Rendon and Strasburg(When he opts out)?
    Why on earth would you let the pitcher you drafted, played all his life for your team and will get in the HOF go when he's pitching great?

    Same goes for Rendon.

    I'd sign them both for another 5 years.

    $$$  Rendon is going to get upwards of $200 million.  Be interesting to see what Strasburg pulls in
    They aren't paying Harper and if they lock in Rendon for another 5 years they still have Soto and Turner on the cheap for a few more too so it shouldn't be that bad.

    Strasburg might get more than Rendon, lol.
    Lol rendon is getting a whole lot more than 5 years 
    He'll be 31 come starting next season not 21.

    He might get 7 but no way he gets offered 10. Those days are over for 30 YO's now.
    Both Strasburg and Rendon are over 30.

    Well I'm hoping for a Astros vs Nationals Workd Series, why because BOTH of their Spring Training are held here in West Palm Beach about a mile walk to the 12 fields from my house.

    Now that the Nationals are in the World Series....here's a bit of trivia for you baseball nuts.

    Name the ONLY team left in MLB that has NOT made it to the WS?

    He will get 5 to 7 years too.  He's not 21.

    Again, no one gets 10 year deals in their 30's... I haven't changed my position on age and contracts.

    I don't think the Rays have ever been?  The Mariners too?

    Wait Dontrelle Willis was on the Rays and not the Marlins right?  If that is true then Mariners.

    Googling now.

    Dontrelle was a Marlin so they were there.  That was the Josh Beckett team too, forgot about him!

    Players I want to see play...

    Juan Soto
    AJ Puk, I'll have to wait for next year now...
    Victor Robles
    Gleyber Torres
    Gavin Lux
    Cody Bellinger
    Corey Seager
    Kershaw
    Scherzer
    Strausberg
    Fernando Rodney, yes I like him, lol.
    Andrew Miller and see if he still has some magic.
    Everyone's favorite Molina
    Altuve
    Albies
    Acuna Jr
    Bregman
    Freeman
    Swanson
    Buehler
    Meadows
    Glasnow
    Verlander
    And that kid Alvarez

    Play em and I'll watch.  Gavin Lux is the one I'm curious the most about though.

    So far on my list all the National guys are doing good.  Can't believe I left of Kieboom and Turner...  Don't think boom made the roster though?
    Astros guys are doing good too.

    Gleber is doing great for the Yanks.

    Buehler for the Dodgers was great.

    We are going to Astros ST next year and can’t wait!

    Well do tell which games you’ll attend, I’ll try and be there as well. I’m so close on Friday’s or Sunday’s I think it is, they do fireworks and I can see them from my patio yard. When I’m there I’ll be wearing my ‘04 RedSox World Series #24 Manny Ramirez jersey or some other Boston jersey. It’s a fun place right in my backyard.
