With no evidence to the contrary, Colby Rasmus is clutch

I'd say the last time we scored 7+ was that one Friday night

Forgot who we were playing, just remember calling it 10-run Friday

yeah, it was two days ago. I’m not sure if Larry was joking or forgot about it.

On with the (good) youth movement!

Brian Deon Barton

Fangraphs has BB’s middle name as Deon. Can we start calling him “Neon” now? How about just Ne?

No

Deion Sanders got the nickname Neon Deion while playing at Florida State.

There have been a few nicknames thrown about for BB round these parts like:

Crabman
Rocketman
Cardinaut (I came up with this during a game last week sometime)

C'mon you Redbirds, lets prove em' wrong, again!

I prefer baseball snob

It’s kind of a term I came up with. Here in the south, football (particularly college football) is king, especially among my generation (age 24). Not very many people like baseball that I know, so I think of my baseball like it’s a fine wine that many people don’t appreciate.

True, football is beyond being a sport in Texas

But only in St Louis have I known more folks as really into baseball than in Texas. Not necessarily MLB baseball, though,.

by random on May 20, 2008 12:33 AM EDT to parent up   0 recs

yeah the top 100 HS teams came out

and I bet there were 20 TXs teams

by poohrat on May 20, 2008 12:34 AM EDT to parent up   0 recs

in Kansas City

same deal. Although I can say if the Royals were my team, I’d be more of a football fan too….

He was doing his job

We’re bound and determined to blow the doors off the LOB record in MLB history.

I was there.

Probably like 15 others. We had a few beers and talked about the game. It was a beautiful day.

go cards.

I had a good time

the band was a little too loud for easy conversation, but they played real well.

wish i could’ve made it, but no one really got back to me with a solid answer on the whole minor thing.

Note to Barton:

They are afraid of Albert, not You. You can expect some strikes in the two spot!

Yup

Definitely Harry. Maybe Dan doesn’t recognize one of the greatest baseball pbp guys all time.

In all seriousness

what is the single season record for LOB?

by bjork24 on May 20, 2008 12:18 AM EDT   0 recs

If you don't feel like looking it up

Just wait until the end of the season and look at our number

No idea

I’m just gonna wait til the end of the season

1,334 by the Browns in 1941

We’re keeping the record in the city.

Nice.

LOB is frustrating, but at least we get players on base. I have mixed feelings on it.

go cards.

BTW, Kennedy

Has been pretty bad this year. His VORP is negative, according to Baseball Prospectus

Really?

He hasn’t seemed particularly bad, except on throws for easy plays.

by dangpenguins on May 20, 2008 12:22 AM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Maybe

You’d have to put Duncan in and that’d leave us with Miles and FuMan on the bench in case of comeback.

sure.

I’d say rest Ludwick too. Maybe even put La Rue in. This game is over.

go cards.

by thecoolalonzo on May 20, 2008 12:22 AM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Don't put LaRue in

If he gets hurt, that would probably mean Aaron Miles at catcher
