PrintCardinals vs. Brewers
Looper vs. Sabathia
The next two games are of grave importance to the Cardinals. Even though the last couple of losses were gutwrenching, with a little luck and some solid play, we can come back and be right back where we were when this series started; in the Wild Card lead by a game. As it stands right now, we're behind the Brewers by a game in the Wild Card and the Cubs by two games for the NL Central. We need to win at least one of the next two games.
Let's Go Cardinals!!

I am going to stick with Verizon and a Samsung is the best Verizon does, but I would like to know thoughts before I go out and drop 200 on one.

What did he say on BPV?
He is coming on the FOX broadcast in the minute and will probably say the same thing, but sometimes I think he would tell 2 different stories to 2 different listeners.
not a whole lot…..will be done by 2010, a tallish building with offices, retail space, entertainment, dining options, possibly residential areas (if not during the first phase, then the second phase)
He is on FSN now.
Work starts in the next couple weeks … on planting grass. (Rolling eyes)
Then more political process … ??? WHAT? Jesus!
Graded out by the All Star game – I fu**ing hope so. Tailgating and stickball by the All Star game – apparently in the new grass.
Construction starts … no date … maybe winter, maybe not.
This project makes me sick.
By the way, he didn't say any of the stuff you said on the FSN broadcast.
Not surprising. This younger DeWitt scares me. I don’t really like him at all.

Bill Hall
maybe I’m the only one but I still think we should bean Bill Hall. Jimmy the Cat aparantly talked to some of the Cards and those that claimed to notice it said that “he deserved it” meaning to watch his homer’s go. They also said if one of the Cards did it, then the fans wouldn’t care.
Maybe I think too highly of the “best fans in baseball” but personally I think that is a cop-out and that the Birds need to grow a little bit of backbone. He deserved it? really? He absolutely was showing up the team.

I would hit him just to hit him, posing or no.
The guy burns us all the time. That’s fine, but there should be a price to pay for that. Pitchers are such wimps. Don’t you think Pedro would have him on is butt by now?
I don't usually like Hrabosky but
he put it well… he said hitters used to be afraid of pitches in the days of Gibson. now adays pitchers are afraid of hitters.
if he wsa yelling at the cards dugout
and posing two nights in a row..he needs be be reminded he’s bill hall…one to the rib..or leg, not knee..one where it would sting but not hurt the guy..or just back him off the plate.

I absolutely disagree
When a guy clearly doesn’t have respect for the game or the other team he needs to be sent a message and our team needs to send the message that they aren’t gonna just take it.
But they will just take it.
agree
i think the team has bigger problems than bill hall like WINNING, our bullpen troubles, our offensive droughts, possible trades, etc
i agree too
if you start hitting people for posing, you are gonna be hitting almost every player in the game outside of Scott Rolen

Track 'em Tigers - An SB Nation Blog for Auburn Tigers fans
ok maybe thug is a bad word for it
but it seems their whole team is unnecessarily cocky and the more I watch them the less I like them. Did Prince really think Looper was sending a message by hitting him with 2 men on? What was with the glare? Bill Hall is OPSing barely .750 this year and glaring into our dugout like we’re foolish for even pitching to him.
I don’t care what team you play for, I don’t like showing up the other team. Aaron Miles didn’t show up the Padres this weekend when they walked 2 guys just to get to him.
Miles definitely walked out of the batters’ box on the GS after 2 IBBs. I probably would have too but still….
it was an end of the game walk off grand slam
it was appropriate

It's a good thing there are so many dumb players
who still haven’t figured out Molina has a great arm!
Hey shouldn't you be pitching?
What are you doing on VEB!

I can tolerate the profanity on this board
but please don’t use the word “bullpen.”
refer to it as
the thing that cannot be named. or TTTCBN for short

thanks
I’ve had enough stress going 12 innings in another game that was on earlier. That other unnamed team also has (with one exception) a disatrous TTTCBN.

Why does Al keep referring to the Cubs
as “the Cubbies.” It’s very annoying. Whose side is he on?
it could be derogatory
rather than affectionate

CC has a nice swing, but he takes his eyes off the ball.
It looks like he is pulling his head out early so it will just be luck if he hits one.
Loop needs a quick 5th or that will be his last inning

One HR in last 19 games for Albert
What’s up with that?
he watched a pitch he could drive on strike 1 and swang at garbage he had to reach for to get out
in that AB, ugh
i wish people would make a big deal about AP
not hitting HRs…hes still productive thats all i care about
I can't believe i gave up a homerun to that punch and judy hitter-major league 2

I'm not disappointed in Albert
......just wondering what’s causing his power failure of late. Personally, I love his line drives to the opposite field best. We can’t depend on Iz2 for all our power!
He's in pull-mode
Has been for awhile now. He needs to hit the ball where it is pitched, or even better, take a few at bats and try to take it the other way.
Hurrah

If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs, perhaps you haven't grasped the situation!
That's true
He was pouting after the trade. It seems to have woken him up, unfortunately.

It's a white-hot CC Sabathia
versus a team that can’t hold leads, much less come back from defecits.
didn't we win 4 in a row
against San Diego when we were down in each game? Now granted that was San Diego, but give em half a chance….
He is on my fantasy team :/
