Das WunderBrad's control

He's had batters where he hasn't even been close. What's the deal?

by bgh on Apr 13, 2008 6:01 PM EDT   0 recs

as somebody said earlier

you gotta wonder what's going thru his mind when he comes in in the 4th to relieve the guy who took his spot in the rotation....could just be tense....

by nota bene on Apr 13, 2008 6:02 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Maybe that's it

Still, 16 strikes to 17 balls. That's not good at all.

by bgh on Apr 13, 2008 6:04 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

He should really be starting

Him and Reyes both. But what do I know? I've never been scrappy. Certainly never gritty.

by Midwestside on Apr 13, 2008 6:04 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Is Barton officially "gritty" yet?

Or has TLR not issued an official decree?

by bgh on Apr 13, 2008 6:05 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

blah down 4

at least ludwick comes up

Hmm

Lincescum? Lincebum. Anyway, good to see him gone.

It's those dreads

Nothing can contain them. Not even Rawlings MLB-grade plastic

Why does MLBTV have to show the other team's gamecast everyday?

I'm looking for the next Bobby Bonilla?

by showmejoe on Apr 13, 2008 6:07 PM EDT   0 recs

Do they always carry the home team?

gameday audio carries both feeds, and the spanish-language feeds for teams that have 'em.

So,

what do you do when BB loses his helmet during the at-bat.

by cardsgirl95 on Apr 13, 2008 6:07 PM EDT   0 recs

Speed kills.

3B throws 18 ft from the bag, and it's called a base hit.

Barton reaches

Kennedy, then the top of the order....

by nota bene on Apr 13, 2008 6:08 PM EDT   0 recs

raise your hand

if you wish we could pinch hit for AK....

by nota bene on Apr 13, 2008 6:08 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

um, er,

that was, um, a reverse jinx. Yeah, that's it.

by nota bene on Apr 13, 2008 6:09 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

I love

Me some Brian Barton.

Come on boys!

Lets get a couple here!

AK gets a hit?

There's something happening here, but it ain't exactly clear...

by Midwestside on Apr 13, 2008 6:09 PM EDT   0 recs

There's a Schu-man

with a gun for an arm,
telllin' me, he's about to do harm.

Here we go Birdnals!

Albert stretching.

Be afraid, Merkin...

Kennedy's "soft line drive"

...according to GameCast. Never mind its density, I'll take it

I giggled so hard

The tape on my glasses nearly split

Pujols

Should PH for Miles.

by stl tyler on Apr 13, 2008 6:11 PM EDT   0 recs

agreed.

if Schu can't make it work.

id like to see pujols come

to the top of the steps and just stair at the pitcher.

by brindled on Apr 13, 2008 6:11 PM EDT   0 recs

Or

climb to the top of the ladder and rung his hands.

Bad Skip!

i wish

tlr would have not signed, i cannot stand miles anymore

anybody else have nightmares of miles

coming up in key situations??

by TxCardFan on Apr 13, 2008 6:14 PM EDT   0 recs

Key situations?

Are we down by 1 or 4?

by TheBirds on Apr 13, 2008 6:15 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

I'm not a big fan of Miles

But if we need to make a big comeback I'd rather have him then a lot of guys who try to hit 5 run HRs.

by TheBirds on Apr 13, 2008 6:16 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

all the time, all the time

by from First to Third on Apr 13, 2008 6:15 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

In my nightmares

Not only does Grit Miles come up to the bat, but he also plays SS. Thank goodness TLR recognizes his defensive limitations and doesn't play him there. Oh wait...

by bgh on Apr 13, 2008 6:17 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Miles AKA

Aaron "Grits & Gravy" Miles

by brindled on Apr 13, 2008 6:17 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

That must be my problem.

I'm not from far enough south, and I don't like Grits & Gravy.

by etp_stl on Apr 13, 2008 6:18 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

G&G

Grit!

Gravy!

hahah

CLASSIC! I just spit my tea all down the front of my shirt...+1 for great timing!

I wonder if Mo likes him.

I sometimes forget

That Ron Villone is on this team.

Villone

I still don't know what to think of this guy....
