BenFred: Cardinals look like a team coming apart at the seams

Of all the emergency lights that flashed during the Brewers' 11-3 mauling of the Cardinals on Thursday night in Milwaukee, this quote might be the most concerning.

Not the four Cardinals errors that helped lead to six unearned runs. (The Cardinals have now tied the Rangers for the most errors in baseball, by the way. They have 61. All but five teams have fewer than 50.)

Not another poor performance by starter and supposed ace Carlos Martinez, who squandered a chance to stabilize a suddenly-scraping rotation that had just lost Michael Wacha to the disabled list.

Matt Carpenter's leadoff home run was the only spark before a Dumpster fire started at Miller Park.
