## Resource

The Cardinals are flying high with a 29-22 record, just a game and a half behind Milwaukee, thanks to Jordan Walker’s breakout season and a pitching staff holding things together. GM Chaim Bloom deserves credit for reshaping the roster, but some players are still hanging around like loose ends. Dustin May’s pricey one-year deal hasn’t paid off—he’s got a 5.00 ERA and struggles with his secondary pitches. JoJo Romero’s advanced stats are slipping, his groundball rate down and hard contact up, putting the bullpen at risk. And Thomas Saggese? Offensively useless, he’s dragging down the lineup and might be better off in Triple-A. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
