Cardinals News
The St. Louis Cardinals managed to claw their way back to a .500 record, edging out the Colorado Rockies 7-4 thanks to JJ Wetherholt's clutch game-winning double. While the bats unloaded to secure a much-needed series victory, questions linger over the future of Ivan Herrera, whose inability to throw out baserunners has put his starting role in jeopardy. Kyle Leahy’s quick hook after just 82 pitches has also sparked debate about managing the starting rotation's workload as the Cardinals chase the Wild Card spot. With the Philadelphia Phillies looming on the horizon, the pressure is mounting, and the Cards need to capitalize on every opportunity. As they navigate these challenges, fans are left hopeful yet anxious about what lies ahead.
