Hochman: Ten days in September. Cardinals fans, buckle up.

To this team, you donated your blood pressure and fingernails and a preposterous number of palpitations from your Cardinal-red heart. You've suffered through bullpen bungling and Dexter Fowler's foul-ups and Marcell Ozuna shot-put throws and Greg Holland. And you invested your money and time and faith into these St. Louis Cardinals, and your payoff is this: Absolute and utter uncertainty.

You've made it this far, and now it's just the beginning – 10 days to determine whether the Cards will make the postseason.

And second, the young pitching is thriving now – and there's so much of it!
