Kennedy seemed stunned

by Izturis giving him the ball for the DP. Then he almost tore Glaus’ groin.

looks like he paused to get the timing right. He almost got there too soon.

don't get too down on Studwick

he has been streaky this year, every time his avg gets down near .300 he goes on a tear and gets it back up near .350. I sense a hot streak coming. 4 HRs starting in houston

* sarcasm might be involved in this comment

by mattyfrommo on Jun 5, 2008 9:36 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Huh?

It’s only been 10 starts since his last HR and he’s managed to pick up 6 RBIs.

by Hardcore Legend on Jun 5, 2008 9:36 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Slump may be harsh

If not hitting .350 is a slump than a lot of people are doing it. Plus there have been a lot of leftys lately.

I don't think Pujols even warmed up........

I think he was sure that he was going to be walked. He didn’t swing did he?
It was a bad call but the ump knew what was happening. He isn’t going to give the cards anything from here on out.

This game

reminds me of this one against the Reds from 2004.

Only this comeback is bigger.

Which pitcher gets called up tomorrow...

Motte, Reyes, or Hawksworth…

Jimenez is also on the 40 man roster but I will shoot people if I see him again

replacing Parisi?

although I will contradict an earlier post of mine

I bet no one…they will wait for Pineiro to come back before making a move

even at that stage – they still need a long reliever – where Parisi was successful earlier

Worrell is the likely candidate to ship back down when it comes time, IMO

Motte hasn't been great lately

But Reyes started tonight so I think Motte is your best option for immediate help

Sutton did the braves games...

he went to the Nats a couple years ago. i think Carpenter did WB but not sure.

by jdubya on Jun 5, 2008 10:01 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

yep

Carpenter did WB games. I remember his stories about being an usher/vendor/something at Cards games as a kid

The catcher cam is so stupid

it has helped us see/understand exactly zero plays

Whoever it was in the first game thread that said we would win this game

I thought you were crazy. We haven’t won anything yet, but to just get to this point, impressive call

his name looks like it’s missing the ‘dwi’ part :)

Heh

I was thinking, “What, does he have a felony arrest in his past?” But then I got it.
