The St. Louis Cardinals had a win slip from their fingertips last night in a 7-6 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Leading 6-0 in the 7th, the Cardinal bullpen surrendered 7 runs in the final three frames. Was this a cause of bad management, bad bullpen formation or players underperforming? How about a combination of all three.
That said, the offense was wonderful last night, getting contributions up and down the lineup. Paul Goldschmidt and Nolan Arenado mashed early, but you also saw Andrew Knizner step up. What will his role be when Yadier Molina comes back?
Tonight's game is an extremely tall task with an already depleted bullpen, Dakota Hudson on the mound and a good starter for the Dodgers. How can the Cardinals get the job done?
