TCDB 2 for Tuesday #74

Today's post will be pretty short.  I went to the Cardinals game last night and did not get home until midnight.  The lack of sleep has me dragging today.  Maybe a win would have made me more chipper, but at least it was a good game. I am thankful for the pitch clock, as the 10-inning game only lasted 2.5 hours.

The first trade came from member Jquirp001.      


Just like any outfielder the Cardinals have traded, O'Neill has flourished so far for his new team.  Whether he stays healthy will be the big question.  Carlson has yet to see the field after starting the season on the DL.  When he returns, he may soon follow O'Neill out of town.


Mikolas pitched well last night, earning a no-decision.  He seemed to get hit hard when players hit his first pitch.  Donovan came within a few feet of hitting a tying 2-run home run in the bottom of the 10th, but instead, it was the first out.  So close, so far away.  

The second trade came from member RParsons17.


Gorman and Goldschmidt are among the regulars who are hitting .200 or lower.  I know it has only been 11 games, but that is not a good start.  Graceffo has lost both of his starts this year for Memphis with an ERA close to 10.  The baby birds are also struggling.
