Cardinals 7, Cubs 2: And now, for real

The Cardinals defeated the Cubs 7-2 Tuesday at Sloan Park.

Raise your hand if you care about the result. (Hoping to see no hands raised...)

I sure don’t — this game was meaningless. The first time this year I’ll care about a Cubs/Cardinals game will be Friday, May 24 — almost two months from now — when the teams have their first meeting of the 2024 season in St. Louis.

As far as this one’s concerned? As expected, most of the regulars played only a handful of innings before getting ready for their flight to Dallas for Opening Day Thursday.
