Saturday's Game Diary

I thought I'd create a discussion thread for today's game against the Mets ... The link for anyone looking for it is:

Either Gameday is slow ...

or their off to a late start today ...

I thought this Post might be a decent way of doing some testing for the new sight ... everything I've used has worked great so far ... the new design is a siginificant improvement to a sight that was already tops ... THANKS Larry for putting together such a quality site for us all to congregrate in ... it's the best available!

...just a bit outside....

I love this new VEB

I didn't think the upgrade was going to be that big a deal ... but these are some really good, useful enhancements ...

Who all...

is watching on MLB.tv?

by mynameistyler on Mar 15, 2008 2:19 PM EDT   0 recs

I am

Left before Pujols' first AB came back right after Barton's triple.

Ryan and Molina both smoked the ball against Johan. Ludwick did to but Reyes made a great diving catch to rob him of a single.

At some point, the line of 'just trying to get his work in, not worried about results' for Johan and the Mets has to get tired. He's throwing at a weaker velocity and missing alot of his spots, getting hammered for it.

Can I tell you how nice it is to have a SS again that has a strong arm?

Thanks for the heads up ...

I looked earlier, and didn't see the game on Audio, so I didn't think it was available today ... I'm listening now ...

Waino's...

looking pretty dang good this Spring. Here's hoping he picks up where he left off last season.

by mynameistyler on Mar 15, 2008 2:23 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Brian Barton would be a HOF'er

on astroturf. With his speed and his chopping infield hits, he'd hit .350.

Yeah, he would have fit right in with the White Rat ...

He was born in the wrong decade ... but you're right tyler ... it looks like he's made the team ... especially give Gonzalez's health concerns ... ok by me ... we need speed.

Brian Barton

Isn't it about to the point where they're going to have to keep him? He's shown some pop, he's shown really nice speed, he can make contact regularly, his fielding could be a bit better but it's not horrendous or anything.

I feel like he's made more than enough of a case for the Cardinals to keep him on this team. Especially with word coming that Cleveland will not allow the Cardinals to retain him if he does not make the roster. I think this guy needs to be a part of our team. He's too good a hitter.

Troy Glaus refuses to get cheated when he swings

he just hopes you throw it at his bat.

This new format...

is going to be really fun when there's 20-30 people on here for a regular season game thread, haha.

Santana owns Glaus

His career numbers against him include many many k's

...just a bit outside....

I hate it when that happens ...

Adam gives up the HR ... glad no one was on ...

You hang a curveball that bad

and even Aaron Miles would put it in the pool.

Waino's curve

MLB.tv people - Shannon and Rooney were saying earlier that Wainwright's curve is in regular season form - is that showing on the video?

you can't sneak the sun past the rooster

Yeah

it looks pretty good. His cutter or slider (hard to tell what it is) is REALLY sharp. Alot of great movement.

Gameday...

confuses the hell out of me with the picture of Juan Rincon with a Cardinals hat. I get mixed up with what team is doing what.

by mynameistyler on Mar 15, 2008 2:44 PM EDT   0 recs

Yadi...

is going to use up all of his hits before we start the regular season.

I thought Marti

was optioned to AAA Camp. Is he up because of Gonzalez. Same with Phelps yesterday.

I thought the same thing ...

that he'd already been sent down ... I was surprised to see him on list of available players for the game today ... I don't know why he's there but I'm glad he is ... I'd like to see him on the bench sometime soon ... he's a great player ...

thompson looks good today...

and I love how the mets announcers are completely disregarding the ball game that is going on so they can continue to dwell on last year. If i was a mets fan I would be so sick of hearing about that crap...

Sorry

must add

that this is a H2H points-based league (football style)

by silent_bob on Mar 15, 2008 3:34 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

That's a heck of a roster

Were there only three people drafting? :-D

Dude

You have about four first rounders on your team. Is this a money league?
