None of you ever knew Mark DeRosa. It was long before your time. But you know what a tradition he is at Busch Stadium... And the last thing he said to me -- "danup," he said - "sometime, when the team is up against it -- and the breaks are beating the boys -- tell them to go out there with all they got and win just one for the Roser... I don't know where I'll be then, dan", he said - "but I'll know about it - and I'll be happy."

I mean Ro-sa, Ro-sa. Ya know, Bernie Miklasz has a good point about dealing with injured Cardinal players. When the team says play will be injured for X amount of days, just multiply by 6 and you’ll get a pretty good idea on when they’ll be back.
Therefore, I submit DeRosa’s new nickname is 6x, or Alegebra. Or Algernon.
Oh, and Albert Pujols is riduculous.

If Perez + Todd was too much before, Perez's beard clippings are too much now. Can we file a grievance?

agreed.
Maybe I’m not remembering right, but don’t teams usually settle on some cash or something when this crap happens.
godfather of futureredbirds.net
that would require the cardinals to prove the indians had prior knowledge of his injury and willfully withheld the details and that is a tough one to prove.

Can Perez's beard clippings play third?
I guess they’d at least have fewer baserunning gaffes than Thurston and could probably hit better than T. Greene…..
I'm so pissed about the Derosa situation
not even a Cardinal win and a Cubs lose could fully cure my woes…. but it’d help!
THE SKIP IS LEGIT!!
Lohse struck out two of the first three batters he faces
Tonight in Memphis. That has to be a little encouraging.
godfather of futureredbirds.net
Did you see the Memphis lineup?
1/3 of the starters have started for the big club this year, and many thin a fourth (Wallace) should.

Dear Milwaukee
Clearly your only course of action is to pitch to Albert all series. Plenty of pitches in the strikezone please.
Sincerely,
VEB
P.S.: Duncan/T. Greene/Sugar Shane/Virgil Hill for Gallardo/Hardy? Think about it and get back to us.
Albert Pujols does not have "down" years. He has "~6 WAR" years.

My dad had a book, called "The Knotty Problems of Baseball",
and that was one of the real life scenarios they discussed. It did happen, with a dispute occurring about whether or not in could be called a hit; of course, in the end it was, to the chagrin of the opposing manager. Seems like it might have been Ty Cobb…, but I can’t remember any specifics beyond that.

Yup
He said the Brewers, despite having Looper, Suppan, Cameron, Counsell, Kendall, and Hoffman playing significant roles, are a young team learning how to win. That did it. I’d say their inconsistency has more to do with the crummy rotation…but that’s just me! Plus he said “a…”

Despite the fact that it was awful baserunning....
I replayed it with my DVR. It’s hard to tell 100%, but replaying it three times, I’m pretty sure the same thing happened as what happened to Jeter in the game the other day. The ball was obviously there first, but I don’t think he got the tag down until Skip’s left hand was in there.
at least albert will be up next inning with nobody out to start the inning

yeah....
first time he came up, I loaded up MLBTradeRumors 2010 free agent list to see who has a chance to be available for left next year, since our former abundance of outfielders seem to have turned into us having only 2 that you really want to see out there. (unless you want to throw Skip back out there, of course)
I still can't figure out who's more worthless
Ankiel or Duncan. does duncan’s ability to draw the occasional walk make up for Ankiel’s advantage defensively?
Does Ank have any options left?
Even if he doesn’t, is anyone going to claim him? He needs some work with a qualified hitting coach – not McRae.
The time has come for someone to put his foot down and that foot is me
Can we send him down
i really don’t think he is going to figure it out up here

Why the hell is Buerhle considering retirement in 2 years?
Why not just sign a nice team friendly contract with your hometown Birdos?
actually, according to the article
he says the only way he’ll continue playing after his current contract is up, is either with the White Sox or the Cardinals
I would ask if Ank and/or Duncan could manage to punch a TV set
…but that means more PT for Stavinoha or something. Why oh why did they dump Barton for 29 minutes of Blaine motherfletching Boyer? I mean Barton is no star, but he’s better than The Infection.

Dick and Dunk, the answer to your pitcher's problems...
you realize that their pitcher is one of the best in the national leauge right?
The Redbirds are of the highest priority to me... As it should be
we're six games over .500
because Albert Pujols is ridiculous, Chris Carpenter has come back, Wainwright/Lohse/Pineiro are having strong years, our bullpen is decent and Ryan Franklin is having a career year, and Albert Pujols is ridiculous. (Did I mention that twice? It bears repeating.)
Just about everything else has gone south. Glaus, out. Ludwick got hurt. DeRosa is now hurt. We’re running the likes of Thurston out there every day. Carp missed five weeks. Lohse got hurt. Ankiel and Duncan can’t hit at all. We’ve debuted something like 14 (?) rookies.
we have been playing pretty freaking well of late dude
The Redbirds are of the highest priority to me... As it should be
I guess...
we can pitch a little. Still, 2/5 of our rotation should be released. It just seems like there’s a terrible player either in the box or on the mound most of the time.
without looking it up
I think the top 4 of Carp, Waino, Lohse, and Pinata might be the best in the bigs this year. Welly/PK are holding us back, but those four guys can pitch. And I’m on the Pineiro bandwagon—I think his numbers are for real this year since his pitching style is so different now.

who’s in the their pen. haven’t they moved a few guys around down there (McClung?)
Burns, Coffey, DiFelice (the slowballer), McClung, Narveson (didn’t he used to be in the Cards system?), Smith, Stetter (the lefty sidearmer)
McClung started vs the Cubs I think but i could see how he'd be right back in the pen haha
Narveson was definitely in the Cards system

I can't even imagine what we'd have to give up for Halladay
I’d imagine we’d have to include Wainwright, Wallace, and Daryl Jones
wanna get a good idea?
Think back to the CC trade last year. Halladay’s that type of difference maker, so if we could put together a package on that level, it’d probably do it.
I doubt we have the parts, though.
Wallace is as good as LaPorta
and CC was a rental, Halladay is not. He still has another year on his contract, so he will cost more.

I have this theory on Albert
He doesn’t socialize outside of the baseball game because he’s either preparing or he’s with his family.
Then once the game starts, he can relax… and he starts talking to everyone remotely close to him. The game is moving so slow for Albert, it’s like a potluck picnic.
I find it endearing. And I can’t believe he hasn’t been called out for it in all these years.

He and I have made an unspoken pact never to talk about baseball statistics, merely to comment on what just happened on the field. It gets ugly if that pact is ever broken.
