@kyler416 Neat. He’s got lots of time to figure stuff out, relatively speaking. Thanks!

Joshua Baez's Triple-A Statcast percentiles since May 26 (min. 40 BBE).

He's posting some of the loudest quality-of-contact metrics in Triple-A while carrying an 84.7% Z-Contact% over that stretch.

The @Cardinals' No. 3 prospect becomes just the third Minor Leaguer this decade to deliver a quartet of roundtrippers:

Holy shit Masyn

[John Redbird @JohnRedbird]

That’s one way to turn a potential big inning into nothing in like 2 pitches

@cardinalsgifs @C70 Jimmy Crooks to right field in the 4th!

There have been 300 pitches thrown by MLB starting pitchers at 101+ MPH this year and Jacob Misiorowski has thrown 285 of them.

[John Redbird @JohnRedbird]

good lord, Jordan Walker

[John Redbird @JohnRedbird]

hey maybe stop giving up the lead

[Sarah Langs @SlangsOnSports]

Jacob Misiorowski last 8 starts:

80 strikeouts
1 extra-base hit allowed

He’s the only pitcher since at least 1900 with 60+ strikeouts and one or no extra-base hits allowed in a 8-game span

[John Redbird @JohnRedbird]

Here’s every Cardinals batter in 2026 with at least 70 PA (arbitrary). The divide between the top 4 hitters having really strong 1H 2026 vs the bottom several hitters is apparent.

Shout out José Fermín and Nathan Church grinding out some average-y offense in their playing time.

That’s a cool ass quote Oli

[Benjamin Hochman @hochman]

“There’s an extreme amount of confidence,” Marmol said. “From the second (Jordan Walker) walks up to the plate to just the way he gets ready, you can tell something cool is about to happen. He believes it... and at times, the guy on the mound believes it.”

Jordan Walker has had at least one extra-base hit in the last 5 consecutive games

Video game fans are a dramatic bunch. I saw this and thought “neat.”

Based on the replies, you’d think the game studio committed war crimes.

Don’t get me started on the reactions to one single image of Ocarina of Time yesterday…
