a rough stretch

Not a great stretch. A 1-6 week weighs heavy on the score. On top of that, a -13 run differential. Even the close losses add up.

Cardinals News

The St. Louis Cardinals are in a tailspin, having dropped their last game to the Arizona Diamondbacks 10-6 and limping through a dismal 2-5 stretch. With their record now at 52-50, the buzz around the team is urgent, especially as they prepare to face the last-place Cincinnati Reds. On the bright side, Dustin May's recent performance shows promise, hinting at the return of his old form, but the silent bats must wake up soon, especially with players like Jordan Walker (.291) and Alec Burleson (.284) underperforming lately. Trade rumors swirl around Iván Herrera, which could be a pivotal move to secure young talent like Emerson Hancock from the Mariners. The time for change is now, as the Cardinals need to shake off this malaise before the season slips away.
