time to pull carp
"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."
Carp is so off tonight.
Anyone with tv wanna give a bullpen update?

We’ll get even tomorrow hopefully.
Game is 54 outs.
We get nine more outs – seventh inning against Kuo, eighth inning George Sherrill and ninth inning Jonathan Broxton.
Just Saying.
Stranger things have happened.
The Dodgers will bat in the bottom of the ninth.
There are some people who, if they don't already know, you can't tell 'em.
