@chief342002 @Cardinals All of whom hit better than Gorman who was hitting .182 on AAA. Nice dude but he is not a MLB caliber hitter

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@LWorthySports Love the winning but it’s definitely frustrating to see arguably the 2 best players depart while they’ve yet to address the biggest need which is an upgrade at striker

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@tomtimm @stltoday Have to think they knew this was coming which better explains the Matan and Holse additions. Just need a better striker option up front and they should be ok

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@dgoold Seems like it was half a swim move. But whatever works

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@dgoold His B-R page has one of my favorite Easter eggs

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@dgoold @amberewinkler How is Fermin’s glove work at SS? It’ll be his first MLB appearance there and he only had 5 games there at AAA in 2025, though a lot more work there earlier in his minors career.

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@tomtimm I noticed that too and then he just doubled down on it. Someone should probably tell him 🤣

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@dgoold Any thought of also retiring their numbers at that time too? Seems inevitable so might as well I say

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@Cardinals lol that’s a deep cut right there

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@dgoold Definitely not the wisest choice but what do I know

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@Beganovic2025 @tomtimm Tix sold my guy, not butts in the seats

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@tomtimm Definitely their best lineup IMHO. I still feel like Wallem is a bit miscast as a fullback but he’s done well enough

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@tomtimm Single most garbage call I’ve ever witneased

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@tomtimm Wouldn’t be a 2025 CITY game without them conceding after the 75th minute lol

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@tomtimm They trying Reid out as a winger? Interesting. Always thought his service into the box was really good

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@tomtimm Serious question: has there been any talk about changes to training regime and/or training staff? Injuries seem to be a recurring issue beyond what would be considered “normal” and I just wonder if there is an underlying problem. Can’t be all luck at this point.

@stlCITYsc @amfam So thankful to finally be done with that silly numeric ordering of the lineups! 👏👏👏

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@stlCITYsc 😭😭😭

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@Ogduke2 my 6 year old daughter Emma is currently crying because she just learned you graduated and she’ll never watch you play for BU again. “But Duke was my favorite player and he’s the best 😭”

[Adam Mettrick @amettrick]

@dgoold Seems like poor roster management led to this situation. I’d also think maybe Pages at 3B and sliding Arenado over to SS and keeping Saggese at 2B might be more defensively sound. Not by much mind you, but a bit better I’d guess.
