## Resource

The Cardinals are battling through a rough stretch, but there’s still plenty of heart and hope. Manager Oli Marmol admits they didn’t deserve some recent wins, while pitchers like Andre Pallante are finding their rhythm with better velocity. Lars Nootbaar’s return has electrified the team — players call him the “heart and core,” and he’s feeling the energy himself. The bullpen’s getting a boost too, with Hunter Dobbins earning his first save and giving the rest a much-needed break. Even amid the losses, bright spots emerge: Nolan Gorman homers through a slump, Thomas Saggese smashes a long-awaited triple, and fans are creating an electric atmosphere — especially against the Cubs. It’s a mixed bag, but the team’s leaning on each other, chasing momentum and moments of magic to turn things around. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
