    If @NHL@NHLPlayerSafety⁩ suspends #StLBlues Barbashev they better suspend #Bruins Marchand for his signature Knee-hunt cheap shot against ⁦@tara9191⁩ on missed interference call; Marchand’s long cheap shot history deserves no less

    #StLCards Marmol Lifts Liberatore after 85 pitches, 2 ER, 4 straight scoreless innings 3-2 lead Turns to Pallante & Stratton — each pitching back to back days & 3rd time in 4 days on day Helsley goes to IL 4-3 #Giants — anyone paying attention?

    I get those who say, ‘What’s Shildty supposed to do?’ Here’s what you don’t do: Don’t bring shell-shocked Reyes in with bases loaded in 9th Don’t yank starter after 81 pitches w a 3-1 lead … leaving 11 outs for a bullpen that took over in 2nd inning the day before #STLFLY

    #STLCards bizzaro recipe for last place season: 1. Acquire 0 pitching/OF help for team’s biggest need 2.Never set actual 1-5 rotation 3. Demote rookie of year candidate 4. Bench new high-dollar FA catcher & tell him to learn to play OF Feel free to add to list 🤦🏻‍♂️

    Every 20 yrs or so, @xfl2020 comes along and shows @NFL a thing or 2. This year: 1. NFL needs to fix replay 2. NFL needs a team in StL

    #StLCards banished OF J. Walker-hotter than anyone in StL In May - BA: .353(12-34),5 RBI, OPS: .822 No HR -- but Gorman, Arenado, Burleson, Noot, Goldy, don't hit them either Maybe instead of working on "launch" in AAA, just let him hit, help StL win - power will come
