Why The Cardinals Shouldn't Wait Too Long To Pull The 'Trigger'

They’re only five games into the 2019 baseball season but the Cardinals continue negative trends that should be cause for alarm. Starting pitchers are giving up home runs by the bushel, hitters are flailing away at just about any and everything opposing hurlers are throwing towards home plate, striking out at disturbing rates. Lastly, the bullpen, which many thought would be a major strength of the team, imploded in the finale against the Brewers in Milwaukee Sunday, costing the club a split in the opening four-game series, a missed opportunity that made manager Mike Shildt a very unhappy man whose post-game demeanor was a stark contrast from his perceived norm.
