    There's a reason why there's a 100% agreement that cards fans are the worst.

    My personal favorite on them maybe coming back and winning.

    The Royals bullpen isn't using cheat codes anymore, right?
    like, the Cardinals can blast the hell out of Duffy and their pen at some point?

    Even worse, it's probably because his wrist hurts.

    Went to the game last night. Can confirm that Cardinals fans are the worst.

    First inning, Wong makes that diving catch. Couple looks at each other and wonders who is in CF, other Cards fan informs them it's Wong. "Wait, he's in the minors" "No, he's in CF, his name is on the scoreboard". Wong comes up to the plate, woman is screaming her head off "Goooo Kolten, I love Kolten, he's so good." She went from not knowing who he is to having a new favorite player. Every time someone came up to bat, same shit. Goooo _______ (insert first name) followed by a loud scream. There was also a ton of screaming after Strike 1 calls. Best Fans in Baseball!!

    I know the Hosmer RF experiment was a disaster but I think I'd rather see him running down fly balls than Morales.

    In ST we had Hos work out there for inter league games and words was that he was decent.

    Rusty and Yost have been hyping Morales in RF since around this time last year. Hosmer was awful in right. If we're married to playing both, might as well have Morales be awful in right and keep Hosmer at first.

    Wonder if Eibner will play CF or if he'll sit the bench while Dyson plays

    I'm guessing Dyson will play CF every day, especially if they are really going to use Morales in RF for some of these interleague games. Eibner in CF would scare the shit out of me

    Can't wait to watch this train wreck.

    Can't be worse than pitchers playing in the outfield right.

    Merrifield just sitting?

    Somehow the cardinals will find a way to put every ball in play at Morales

    So this is solely an offense-minded move? Seems like the potential for giving up runs outweighs having him get 3-4 at bats

    I think the fear is sitting him for 5 games and potentially cooling him off since he's just now learning how to hit again

    Ned said we cant afford to run a line up out there missing both Cain and Kendrys.

    O/U on how long until uncle hud says "he's the best RF in the league with 6 pins in his ankle"?

    whit needs to tone down the pouting when he doesn't get a hit. That plus 9 Ks the past 3 games is why he's sitting
