Time for the intrleague batting champ to do his thing

40th anniversary of Gibson's 1.12 ERA, Think he could pitch in the bullpen now?

Ank vs. Zumaya

Something I really wanted to see. Curse you Leyland.

Yeah

but I’m just saying that perhaps, the Skip hate should be a bit tempered, just for tonight

should they just make this a double-header?

only what, a bit over twelve hours until the next game? :)

I love this team.

They just keep going. Fighting. They don’t get down, they just find a way to come back.

Jim could smoke a heater in the time it takes him to get to the mound

in fact, i’m surprised he’s never done that

I'd leave Ank in or defensive purposes

plus he could hit # 3 of the night

Did he swing at strike three after it was in the catcher's glove?

That was the weirdest swing I’ve seen in ages

Sure to have opportunities if Izzy stays in or Flores comes in. .

That looked like an Edmonds swing

I swear, Ankiel is a JEd clone.

by MichiganBird on Jun 26, 2008 12:30 AM EDT   0 recs

C'mon.

Ankiel just catches the ball. He doesn’t catch the ball, take 2 steps and then dive.

Except Jim needed 4 minutes between pitches

to shake his head and clean this mysterious substance in his eyes that always effected his vision.

by Hardcore Legend on Jun 26, 2008 12:31 AM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Dude has luxurious eyelashes

You try playing a contact sport with those.

by MichiganBird on Jun 26, 2008 12:33 AM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Sheesh!

need I say more!

BTW, Ankiel’s our best defensive OF. He belongs in there.

by chuckb on Jun 26, 2008 12:31 AM EDT   0 recs

MIles saved his hit for ehn it would count!

That swing has the most WPA so far of ay Cardinal at bat

Flores, WHY?

Really Tony

by DriverZn on Jun 26, 2008 12:32 AM EDT   0 recs

Over/under on the number of pitches before the lead disappears?

Are we trying to lose this damn game?

I don’t care if Flores is rested, he’s rested because he’s pitched like shit

I thought Flores was going to get Izzy treatment and stay in the duration.
