Chuck Norris doesn't need a bat.

David Cook? Really?
Oh well….and it sickens me to see Marquis out there in an all-star jersey…just because he sucked so hard while here in St. Louis

Ridiculously high odds for such a crapshoot as the HR Derby, and I can always lay off should they reach the second round.

I'm obviously on the Pujols train
The St. Louis Cardinals have the Not-So-Fab Five: Wellemeyer, Thurston, Ankiel, Duncan and Thompson.
OK, taking opening bets...
Are you taking:
- Chris Berman will mention more towns in Illinois tonight than Morgan talks about his lack of HR power.
- Joe Morgan mentions that he played in the major leagues more often than Berman says that a ball was hit to a town in Illinois.
Decide.
I'll take # 3
Berman, Morgan and Phillips all are annoying
The St. Louis Cardinals have the Not-So-Fab Five: Wellemeyer, Thurston, Ankiel, Duncan and Thompson.
So...my whiteboard has a nice table...
…player names as rows
…rd 1, rd 2, cumulative, finals, total, out-of-the-park (just in case) as column…
I feel like a kid with an old scorebook
10 of the last 13 left handed hitters have won the HR derby
What the f’ does that even matter Steve Phillips?
I didn’t realize left handers were naturaly stronger than rigties, or that Busch Stadium was biased towards southpaws.
Am I the only one who finds it incredibly depressing
it took an All-Star game for Ozzie to acknowledge the team after his retirement?
he's been around some before this
I remember some of the guys I was in JUCO with getting his autograph at a game in either 01 or 02.
"Baseball is like Church, many attend, few understand" - Wes Westrum
He was at the last game at Busch II
and was at opening day this year. He’s around, he just doesn’t talk to Tony.
"I usually don’t read other peoples sigs." -Cuttah
He was there the nite all-star balloting started too
I’m just saying it’s a shame he’s not around more. And since TLR doesn’t appear on his way out any time soon I fear it’ll stay that way.
sign guy is here.
The game is official now.

Can the two Bucks counteract how much Berman bastardizes it?
Why 10 outs?
I bet it used to be three, a few “stars” embarassed themselves with an O-fer, and they fixed it so anyone could hit one.

We booed Isringhausen even when he wasn't hurt...he tried to set a record for blown saves...
We love when players give 100% or more, and you certainly can’t give that when you are hurt….The fact that he hid that from our medical staff hurts the team, hurts the fans, and hurts yourself farther. Either way, he deserved it…
Dick and Dunk, the answer to your pitcher's problems...
disagree...
… he would have deserved it if he wasn’t trying hard. he was. the fact that he couldn’t do any better does not reflect poorly on his person or character.
booing should be reserved for poor people, not poor performances.
although...
… i always felt that most of the boos Izzy heard were directed at TLR, not Izzy. that’s probably fine.
Does this mean you accept poor performance? No, obviously it doesn't, it also doesn't mean you can't boo the FO.
I respect your opinion, but I stand behind the people booing Izzy, he had a good early career in STL, but playing hurt helps no one. In my opinion, playing through an injury does not make you a good person, it makes you irrational and stubborn….
Dick and Dunk, the answer to your pitcher's problems...
Fully agreed
I booed Izzy before he came in a game and he ended up blowing the save. Blew a save when I saw a game in Detroit, too. His later years with the team (minus 07) were not good.
