8 LOB?

People complain about all the LOB when they score 3-5 runs (like they have been). But tonight, they only have 4 LOB and zero runs. I hope people are happy….

Six fastballs in a row

What’s Perez’s second pitch?

by bjork24 on May 16, 2008 10:07 PM EDT   0 recs

slider

and apparently he has a little-used curve

They say that it's never too late, but you don't get any younger...

by Valatan on May 16, 2008 10:07 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

said he thrwos a mean slider

and a nice curve ball but is reluctant to throw it

was he somehow distracted by the broken bat flying or something?

has Perez thrown anything other than a fastball?

there was actually a magazine article about it

ESPN or something… Evan apparently knows her and tried to hit on her once, to no avail.

who needs a slider when you can throw it by them with your heat?

In California...

I have Dish Network so I don’t have the extra innings package anymore… how does Perez’s stuff look? I heard his fastball is a nasty one… not just straight hard stuff… true?

by nzach54 on May 16, 2008 10:14 PM EDT   0 recs

Personally

I found the slider even more impressive. The fastball doesnt have crazy movement, but it is ample

ESPN Management (CT): Umm…...what does this have to do with the Red Sox and Yankees?

by Smokin Turkeys on May 16, 2008 10:16 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

i like Perez

and how cool was it to see Perez vrs Longoria?

p.s. I still cant get used to saying Tampa bay Rays.

That inning is the definition of our offense today

and the overall helpless feeling that I have had all game. Then again I can not remember a time when the cards hit a pitcher well that they have never seen before.

miles you aren't fast

and longoria is a damn good fielding third baseman. don’t try to bunt your way on.

(PS – Perez looked pretty damn good if a touch wild.)

i get the feeling

that thats something we are going to have to live with.
hasnt that always been the story with that guy?

ya they said

he walks alot and i think almost as much as he ks

I can't believe i gave up a homerun to that punch and judy hitter-major league 2

by punchinjudy on May 16, 2008 10:22 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

absolutely

but I expected a little better control of the slider. it was sloppy tonight. His fastball looked good though. He’ll always walk a few batters but he offsets that by being very difficult to hit.

Miles will only have a big league job

as long as TLR is a manager somewhere.

well shit

cause LaRussa has a lifetime pass in STL.

by azruavatar on May 16, 2008 10:25 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

ya know, mo has a very strong character

and seems to “get it”. If ANYONE would fire TLR and get away with it, Mo is the one to do it.

And pissing away a season over a closer/SS/Schumaker fetish might be just enough rope, if I was a Mo…

by SleepyCA on May 16, 2008 10:28 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

the good news is...

that we’re still only down 3 runs

although it does feel like we’re down at least twice that

I still think we’ll plate some runs tonight

and Looper didn’t look bad, though he was hardly efficient, and he got a bit lucky with the double plays

I doubt it..

Duncan had been hitting that pitcher pretty well (other than the strike out). His line drive fly ball could have been a double if it were about a foot more to the right
