The Cardinals and Diamondbacks will begin a three game set tonight. The Diamondbacks are throwing Brandon Fat, which describes his earned run average, which is in the fives. The Birds counter with Lance Lynn. The Cardinals offense has been dismal 27th in batting average 29th in homers, Paul Goldschmidt, who's had a magnificent career is hitting 179 with one homer. I asked him earlier today if it's a confidence issue, confidence is not the issue. You know, his performance has been the issue so far. You know, every time you get in the box, always confident that I can get the job done. You know, there's a lot of respect for those guys on the other side, the pitcher and catcher and all that. Um But even when you're going good, you got respect for them and confidence. So that's, that's not the issue. He's the MVP two years ago. I don't think he's that far removed. I mean, it's just, he's in a rut. Um And it's better now than later in the season when we're gonna hopefully make a run. But, uh, you know, I, I feel for Goldie we've all been there. It's not a good feeling.
