Old enough to be unapologetically comfortable with the things that keep me young. RT "@maris9: @dgoold how old are you?”

@JFulghamARincon @ctrent I don’t know, John, I imagine someone on this site will jump at the chance to douse this notion in negativity and call me an idiot or something more colorful.

@dgoold @ctrent Is there an argument that Walker hasn’t arrived as an impact talent? I’ll have to listen. Only someone that didn’t see him enough in 2025 to recognize the changes to every aspect of his game in 2026 might argue against it. I am a skeptic by nature and I’m absolutely convinced

@AJGullotta @dgoold Trust me we went against players who got drafted by Baltimore, Atlanta and other MLB teams and a few ended up playing in the majors.

@steelman837w @dgoold You’re a massive fuckin retard if you think you ever faced 100 MPH in high school. You MIGHT have face 88-90 MPH if you went to reputable high school, and you might not have even faced that. You have no idea what the fuck you’re talking about you fuckin moron

@dgoold I was hitting off a guy pitching 100 in high school. It’s really not as hard as you “media” makes it out to be. If you have a good pitching machine and coaching staff that will ramp it at the top velocity it replicates the game experience.

@dgoold The mlb draft is such a crap shoot, but it’s depressing to think the Cardinals had him playing juco in their own backyard and passed- twice.

Heads up, Springfield. #stlcards plan is to have Lars Nootbaar shift his rehab assignment to Class AA affiliate in the coming days. He continues his (non-linear) climb toward the majors, and will be driving distance away when #Cardinals return home.

@steelman837w They faced a pitcher with a 103-mph fastball and a 91-mph curveball. Today wasn't about preparation. It's OK to say: The Brewers starter was elite and dominant. He wanted to win, too.

@dgoold It’s the coaches job to prepare them, they looked so lost today like they wasn’t even coach at all this year. If Yadi was coaching they would have knocked the pitcher out by the 3rd inning because Yadi doesn’t play when it comes to having his players prepared.

#stlcards will recall Ryan Fernandez for the bullpen. He will be active tomorrow. They are optioning Brycen Mautz to Memphis after his MLB debut and three innings today.

@steelman837w Sheesh, the players do have to perform. Why go out of your way to avoid being critical of them?

@dgoold Blame shouldn’t be on the players but on the coaches,POBO, and ownership they are the one responsible for putting out a winning product
