Carp is now scheduled to pitch Wednesday vs. ATL

that’s both good news and bad news.

by nota bene on Jul 26, 2008 7:08 PM EDT 0 recs

Carp

Could be the lift the team needs. I hope we aint rushing him back too early though.

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

exactly

I’m both elated and nervous. It’s good that he’s healthy enough for them to even consider it, but it’s terrible that we need him at all….

by nota bene on Jul 26, 2008 7:11 PM EDT up 0 recs

If he's on a pitch count, and they're careful with him, I don't see what hte harm could be

What is he going to do? Give up more runs than Boggs would?

They say that it's never too late, but you don't get any younger...

by Valatan on Jul 26, 2008 7:11 PM EDT up 0 recs

which is exactly why he's up here

iffy Carp > healthy Boggs/Parisi/BT

by nota bene on Jul 26, 2008 7:14 PM EDT up 0 recs

There is a difference I think

between a rehab start and a ML start. Even on a pitch count. When he gets his competitive juices flowing he might not be as cautious as he would be in Memphis.

I agree with the elated + nervous consensus!!

"A good friend of mine used to say, "This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while."- Ebby Calvin "Nuke" LaLoosh

It's no coincidence that Carps start is the day before the deadline

but even if Carp goes out and pitches well, we still have a terrible bullpen and an incredibly inconsistent offense.

boo cubs, hooray beer

For Carpenter

Nice hit!

Lets get more of those!

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

Jump all over this kid while he's nervous

Do it now before he settles down.

wow

just wow.

thanks for distracting me from the game. : P

Now that I get the Cards

I don’t watch many Mets games on SNY, but their announcing crew is the best – Cohen, Hernandez and Darling. Keith is the best of the three – very frank, honest and he’s not a homer.

Hardcore?

I'm going to go try to find a puppy and kick it. - Brad Thompson AND THAT'S A WINNER!

by rlgosnell on Jul 26, 2008 7:16 PM EDT 0 recs

Trade Albert!

He’s nothing but a singles hitter these days!!!

My fellow Americans. As a young boy, I dreamed of being a baseball, but tonight I say, we must move forward, not backward, upward not forward, and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom.
