1. Coach Mike Schildt
- this dude paid his dues. He started from the bottom. His first coaching gig was West Charlotte HS. An all black school in the ghetto where he got them the first winning season in over 20 years!!!
He went from HS to the BIGS this guy spent over a decade in the Cardinals organization paying his dues and never had anything just given to him.
His players love him he is true leader and the Cards have great chemistry.
2. Yadi
can’t say enough good things about this guy
he makes all his pitchers jobs easier
his grit and his competitive edge is contagious
3. The pitching staff- there is no Gerrit Cole but collectively they have the best of arms
Trust me having Dakota Hudson out of the bullpen is going to pay tremendous dividends (yes I know he may start game 4)
4. Marcel Ozuna- Is there a hotter hitter on the planet??? fukk no
5. They are just clutch, and getting hot at the right time. Matt Carpenter is going to come up big.
Lets see what happens but I think the Cardinals will beat the mighty Astros in the championship. This team just has that look of championship ball club.
take that +600 and tell’em Lenny sent ya
