I feel a homerun coming on
The Redbirds are of the highest priority to me... As it should be
I am starting to wonder if he is ever gonna come outta this funk
The Redbirds are of the highest priority to me... As it should be
I'd say there's a good chance of it

It kind of sounds like he’s [Duncan] just running around like a puppy out there – full speed ahead in random directions. – BTown Birds Fan

If he really has that power
he needs to take control of Huff’s and hang a few breaking balls over the plate for us

you all see those suites there behind the plate that run from the dugout to the backstop?
they have glass right next to the dugouts & you can see right inside them from the seats. they also have everything. free food, beverages, beer, everything.

half game out of first
it’s a miracle
i don’t think it’s reckless to say the cards need to make a move soon. this could slip away from them very quickly and very easily
crew or cubs get hot for a month and we're 7 or 8 games back, easily.

they will not get hot and take this division. Their offense is just as bad as ours. The Brewers are the ones to worry about, or even the Reds.

their offense is just the same as it was in 2008 when they won 97 games
except they’ve added bradley, who isn’t working out but who IS a quality hitter, and lost DeRo. They got lucky in 08 but I don’t buy that they suddenly suck. They’ve lost 2 more games than us (I think, and 1 more in about 45 mins), and everyone was saying they were the best team in the NL in the spring.

you cant bash front office if you dont know who
or how you would have done it differently…bradley is struggling, maybe Holliday thats it..but at what cost…the only big deal i would have done the last few yrs was get beckett…i think they have doen well not overbidding for average guys

which are all pitchers
but im just talking moves bats havent really been there less you get tori hunter
I can't believe i gave up a homerun to that punch and judy hitter-major league 2
and besides, all you are mentioning are impact bats
there are countless role players who have good splits against lefties that could be platooned and acquired cheaply either by trade or free agency.
MyBrute - Where tiny gladiators rule the internets
actually I can
that’s why they get paid large sums of money, to fix the problems with the team.
MyBrute - Where tiny gladiators rule the internets
if they don't make a trade soon i'm going to be pissed.
this is a VERY winnable division this year, and I think we’re one, maybe two players away from being in it, and they don’t even have to be expensive stars. In the last two years, you’ve always felt it was going to be an uphill struggle and even a big signing wouldn’t necessarily get us over the line. THIS year, in albert’s prime, we HAVE to do something to keep in contention, esp against lefties. GET SOME RH HITTERS.

I actually saw an umpire call a player back for leaning into one
last week. Was the first time i’ve ever seen it happen. Youkilis stuck his elbow out, got hit by a pitch, and the ump didn’t award him first base.

my sox friend told me about that one too.
"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."

our 2 best options are the prez and mr hoople
everyone else is a big risk
we need springer!!
instead we spend $6M on a player who punched himself onto the dl and let another competent $4M walk and play for oakland
no way around it, mo has made his share of misjudgments and likely on the advice of others, who will be there even if mo steps aside. overall, his scorecard looks bad and i’m sure tlr is fried

Just a return to awfulness. Pinata was OK, but the rest - Albert aside - were dreadful. Again. .
Team’s been losing to losing teams, too. This stretch of games – Reads, Rox, Fish, Indians should have fattened up the Cards. Instead it’s downgraded the record and fortells more of the same – only worse – when the good teams roll around. . .
Not sure what the answers is, but it surely does not involve Hawksworth, PJ, and a pen that tosses meatballs or walks. . .

i honestly feel bad for Castillo
I don’t often feel bad for a major league ballplayer, but that was just embarrassing and you know he feels awful.
MyBrute - Where tiny gladiators rule the internets
This game could have been oh so very much worse
Ankiel misplayed his way into some death-defying catches that saved Pinata’s bacon countless times.
I’m glad I’m DVR’ing tomorrows game and going to a wedding. I can just hit delete when I get hope after Brad Thompson exits in the 3rd, confused about why he keeps being put in these situations.
Anyone know why Ankiel didn’t try to gun down the first runner that scored tonight? He had the ball as the guy was rounding 3rd and then just quit. If he was Colby Rasmus, Al would have had 2 cats and 9 kittens over it.

i was watching this at work
so it didn’t get my full attention
but exactly when did ankiel misplay his way into death-defying catches?
the one to the wall in straight away center?
and if he misplayed his way into these catches
how did that save Piniero? Wouldn’t that imply that a better CF would have easily made the play, further implying that Ankiel increased piniero’s risk, rather than saving anything?
Also, i thought that at least one of the RBI doubles in the gap should have been caught.
- "I went at it and didn’t slow down, so it kind of bounced off me." -Lil' Dunc
I actually watched last night.
I haven’t been paying that much attention. I was struck by Rick Horton’s comments-he was shocked, shocked, that Eric Wedge left Rafael Perez, a lefty, to pitch to a right handed batter. He implied that Wedge was really a stupid man, and obviously didn’t know how to use a bullpen. It never occured to him that it was even possible for a lefty to retire a righty. Wow. Wedge could have been wrong-not because Perez is a lefty-but because Perez had been scuffling this year.
Maybe Horton didn’t know that Perez is their only lefty in the pen? Maybe he didn’t know that he has NEVER been used as a LOOGY? Maybe he doesn’t know that other managers have other ideas? That maybe they are right sometimes?
I have a hard time watching this team because of the maniacal pitching/hitting matchups-and they often don’t even work.
She isn't crazy, she's just not impressed.
If anyone is awake right now...
2005 NLCS Game 5 is on MLB Network. Bottom 2nd. Watching this game is the ultimate hangover/Cards loss cure.
