3 of 4 vs the Phillies. I will take it everytime. Everyone contributed as well. Very good starting P and pretty good defense. Lou even woke up a little and did some things . He actually removed pitchers instead of letting them talk their way into giving them another hitter. He also attempted some steals , squeezes,bunts and hit and runs. I thought the lineup change really helped tonight getting a hot Castro at the top. Back in Lous first season Aram was hurt and Font was called up. he practically carried the team for about a month. If theriot doesnt pick it up some, he may get his chance again eventhough we are facing two lefties in a row vs Houston. One sour note - Aram finished the series 0-7.
I still think a run is possible , however maybe we get a little better by making some trades. Fuku has no place out there anymore. I still remember the yr we got McGriff. It seemed like it was the first day of August and we were battling the Stros. Low and behold the Cards were about 9 back and ended up getting to the playoffs.
