I won't be dissapointed if any of them win it.

Carps been the best pitcher of the bunch, but he hasn’t had the best season. Lincecum has had the best season, but not for the best team (which shouldn’t matter), so I think Wainwright will win it. If he does, it’s not undeserved or anything (he’s had a hell of a fucking year), Timmy has just been better.

I’m pretty happy that it’s not going to come down to a “oh, this guy had 20 wins so I guess we’ll give it to him” type of decision. Three very deserving, quite venerable choices. It’s a shame history won’t necessarily recall whoever doesn’t go home with the hardware – which I’d feel the most for Carp, whose comeback this season has been legendary. What a gamer.

Never seen it

I should probably be beaten with a stick.

"I remember once talking to one guy on the Cardinals and asking him what Pujols was like as a teammate. He said something that’s really special, if you think about it. He said: "Albert is so good that you feel like you let him down when you screw up." I thought that had to be the ultimate line that could ever be said about a ballplayer. I build my baseball team around that ballplayer."

Very important question

I got my “Respect the Redbird Stache” shirt the other day in the mail. I wore it for the 1st time today. I was very cautious of it at first, hoping that the Cards wouldn’t go in a funk like they did when they got them. Turns out we win 13-0 on the day I wear it. Do I wear it everyday now? Or… Is this merely a trick? I need help…

this just in: CHRIS CARPENTER CALLED SHOT
Carpenter did what he had been promising his teammates he would do the past couple of days: He hit a home run to left field.

Asked if anybody believed Carpenter’s proclamation, second baseman Skip Schumaker said, “Not too many people. I’ve never seen anything like it in my life.”

After passing first base, Carpenter pumped his fist into the air and then asked when he got back to the dugout if that was permissible under baseball code.

The entire bench was laughing. Albert Pujols, who had talked himself into the lineup despite cold and flu symptoms because he wanted to play for Carpenter, smiled and said, “If I would have dreamed he was going to do that, I would have taken (the day) off.”

It is a good team this year

Lots of ups and downs this season. Before all the acquisitions we were definitely pretty low around here. If you look back at our June 15th thread you see how low we got. That was really the only day I think I ever lost it on VEB.

is that when Carp was super pissed at DeRo?

to the point where after the trade, he wasn’t sure how he would be received?

I don't remember that

We just got our ass kicked by the Indians. People were talking about how we should start trading players away for prospects. So it had to be before the DeRosa trade. I lost it cause we had almost a 50% chance of making the playoffs at that point and they said it was pointless to trade for someone. I just remember calling people quitters and mother fuckers that day.

I don't see why you guys are so surprised

Carp looked at the pitching matchups, saw he was facing Kip Wells, and said to everyone “even I’m gonna hit a homerun off of this guy!”
