I'm in Boston for a reunion
And can’t get the game, so I’m relying on gamecast and u folks. Is this looking like a delay, or a rain out?
go cards.

There's some gnarly weather hanging out all over Northern and Western Missouri
so if they do get it in, they’re going to have to play like the wind!

I feel bad for my mom.
She’s at the game tonight on a “first date” kinda thing with a Met’s fan. I know when I’m at a game, even though they still sell beer, I hate rain delays.

Like my living room
the living room is located in the basement, as there are 4 levels to the house. They are all split by small sets of stairs. We have two lamps and an overhead ceiling fan. The dog is asleep and I’m flipping between the various other ball games. There is an assortment of magazines on the coffee table and shelf with various little trinkets hanging on the wall. The missus lit a scented candle on the end table and you can see the flicker of the tiny flame on the wall, in an area the lamp light just doesn’t cover.
Why, what’s it look like there?

Usually I like your posts... Usually
But since you asked, my living room is dirty as hell, because my roommates refuse to clean anything. But the 63 inch HD draws enough attention that I don’t notice it while the Cards are playing, except when the MLB.TV rain delay graphic is on.

sitting on the end of the large L-shaped couch
I glance about the room seeing lots of cds, books, and dvds stored about the room. my hard drive recorder/mixer lies on the floor amongst multiple 1/4” audio cables as I turn on my practice amp and play the game through it. why I have been listening to the games lately through my guitar amp is anyone’s guess.

good one. actually, when I tried the built in delay it sounds more like an empty stadium. the reverb sounded like at the bottom of a well or in a cave. the best sounding one is the chorus though.

the delay sent me over to the rays game and
watching them try to come back against the sox and one of the sparks has been bartlett, their ss. reminded of the zobrist talk. any word on zobrist and how close he may be to bartlett, who is playing very well this year.

Strauss Comments
Joe Strauss: Clement will likely be designated when his rehab assignment ends this week, leaving him the choice of accepting a minor-league assignment while still receiving major-league salary. Joel Pineiro accepted an assignment last summer before the Cardinals acquired him out of the Pawtucket rotation.

Look, if this was an ordinary pitcher coming off a 3 week stint on the DL to rest his elbow,
I’d be patient. This is not “just one outing”. This is two years of being just around the corner. This is months of not being able to pitch effectively in the minors. And he comes back and pitches a third of an inning and gives up a chunk of hits and a hit batter. When was the last time he was effective above A ball?

He's also throwing 91
consistently with good movement on his fastball and a nice bit on the curve. Time will average out the bloop hits. That’s a function of BABIP, and it’ll take time to even out. Just a little bad luck so far, imo

so, if I think the outing is a sign of ineffectiveness, I'm making a hasty decision.

That's exactly what me response says
“wait and see”. Just not in those words. The concepts of averages and BABIP are not unique to Mulder. If you judge any rehabbing or new pitcher based off one outing, that’s silly. Especially since it wasn’t that bad of an outing and you’ve decided not to consider his Monday results in your conclusion.

no, your response said "just a little bad luck"
