00:03 - Now, unfortunately, things have not gone well
00:04 for certain guys.
00:05 Ian Happ has been one of them.
00:07 If you look at the last 15 days,
00:08 it's a two-week span he would like to forget.
00:10 No homers, no RBI going into Friday's action here.
00:13 Two runs scored, hitting 200 with a 521 OPS.
00:16 Ugh, not good.
00:18 Also not good, another big star, Paul Goldschmidt.
00:22 Last two weeks, no homers, two RBI.
00:25 This offense is struggling.
00:26 Talked about Gorman.
00:27 Nolan Arenado's been mid, a 186 batting average
00:31 over this span, a 504 OPS.
00:33 I'm gonna ask you this question,
00:34 'cause Goldschmidt, again, has a lot of trust in the tires,
00:36 been around for a long time.
00:37 Are you worried this is the beginning of decline,
00:39 or is this the absolute buy low window
00:43 with Paul Goldschmidt, Matt?
00:45 - Both are correct.
00:46 I'm not worried it's the start of decline.
00:47 It is.
00:48 I saw it last season.
00:49 And it's a buy low, sure.
00:51 And I'm a Cardinal fan, but I'm also reasonable.
00:54 Both of those questions are yes, absolutely.
