Good (sneeze) morning.
Allergies are a real pain for me this time of the year and I’m particularly susceptible to them so if at some point my writing devolves into (more) blathering incoherence (than normal), you now know the cause.
With that in mind, I’m not going to attempt any real serious analysis today. Sample sizes are still too small and the Cardinals’ play is still too inconsistent to draw meaningful conclusions over 1700 words. Best to just wait and watch, hope things stabilize a bit better, and the manager figures out how best to implement this complicated roster.
