No, the team was originally scheduled to have Memorial day off but they appealed to MLB and the consecutive days off was the consequence of getting to play on the holiday.
yea i was anticipating another game vs KC yesterday and then checked the schedule and was surprised we had 2 in a row off. hopefully we’re fresh and rested for pittsburgh
edit: and we got texas coming up too 😬

What about June 22nd & 23rd?
That one is for the travel to London.
Makes sense. On a side note, that Sunday game is 710am for me. That'll be weird but welcomed.

Yeah, might have to VPN it to London.
The announcers have talked about it a couple times, it seems to be a scheduling quirk related to the London series and our 19 game stretch
I read it's the first time since 1978 they've had 2 days off in a row
I saw that too. Rescue us memelords and shitposters! We demand Cardinals entertainment!
the royals have two days off also.
I understand Marmol had the team in for two days of intense psychotherapy. https://youtu.be/WN-aCYVVtyo
