NLDS Game 3 Open Thread
Los Angeles Dodgers at St. Louis Cardinals, Oct 10, 2009 6:07 PM EDT
Though he's bounced around, he's not really the typical journeyman pitcher. He's got much better stuff and has shut-down ability. It wouldn't surprise me if he came out and threw a gem today. It also wouldn't surprise me if he imploded and went on a rampage either. In any case, today's game could be a tough one, what w/ Pineiro's recent troubles and Padilla's ability. If we get through today, and come back w/ Carp tomorrow, I like our chances.

Gotta love Gibby on the pre-game

I think being at home
might affect that. Of all the things home/away crowds affect most, I think high leverage situation such as RISP seem to show that.

"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."

"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 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."

the worst thing about it is
we’ve had the absolute minimum number of home games possible in the playoffs. So, pretty much no extra revenue, just a couple of million, max. I was really hoping the postseason would get us an extra $20m or so (apparently that’s about the average) to keep hold of holliday but now; embarassing sweep, quite possibly no Holliday, no extra $, and no Brett Wallace.

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."

I still to this day believe
the only reason the Walrus was drafted was to trade him at a later date. He never had a spot in this franchise. I’m not saying he was traded for the right guy necessarily, I’m just saying.
Also…I like Cody a lot.

Well
Wallace’s being taken in the draft was a mild surprise..,and led to people even then saying it was a smart choice because they took the best talent, and could flip it for a need when that time came.
Trading Wallace is not really the issue to me…it’s whether you trade him for the right player(s).
