Have you ever read the book, “Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” by Robert Louis Stevenson? If you have, this years’ St. Louis Cardinals may give you flashbacks to that novel.
I believe it was Dan Buffa who made this comment first, but it has continued for way too long. One day the Cardinals put up 13 runs and the next they muster three hits. Lately, the offense has been the biggest culprit of the team’s lack of performance and the current lineup construction may be due for a change.
I’ve heard multiple people opine that Mike Shildt’s lineups may be too much the opposite of the wishy-washy Mike Matheny lineups in the fact that he has kept just about the same lineup every day (minus rest days) for the entirety of the season.
