This just in -- the Cards' medical staff seems to be about as good as I am at diagnosing injuries and Colby Rasmus is pretty good. We're halfway home!

Wow
Kick off this post by noting that Thurston just swung at a 3-0 at his FUCKING CHEST!!!
He read VEB today and saw that I supported him (sort of) by saying, among other things, that he walks. Then he swings at a ball at his throat, as if to say EFF YOU REDBIRDNATION I DON’T NEED YOUR EFFING HELP!

by fuegophil on Jul 7, 2009 10:00 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
no way
the 06 WS was the result of two things: the Cards got swept by an inferior team in 04, so the GOB knew they owed us one. Then that chuckefuck in USA Today said “Tigers in three,” and the GOB were compelled to act.
The Kenny Rogers game was their way of keeping the Detroit fans’ hopes up.
Nope, I think we’re getting punished becase of some iffy managerial/roster decisions. The GOB don’t like 8-man bullpens, apparently. And maybe they were Barton fans, too, who knows.

but seriously, the Wallace thing is pretty hilarious
the idea that he’s not ready is laughable. Ready as in what? Defense? Offense? Baserunning?
I gauran-damn-tee he can outperform Joe Thurston on every conceivable f’n level. 10 errors or less at 3b? check. Not running into outs at 3b? Check. Hitting greater that .211 w/ 1 hr? HUGE F’N CHECK!! He’s a better option than Thurston, period. And i realize I’m preaching the choir
by kalmavet on Jul 7, 2009 10:05 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
here's the mindblowing thing
Ankiel’s OPS so far = .656, which is actually < Thurston’s (.674).
That doesn’t reflect the baserunning brain seizures, or the fact that Ankiel is not a defensive liability. But having both those guys in the regular lineup is really hurting the team. Imagine where we’d be with replacement level guys in those spots.

They sell 3.2 beer in grocery stores
but that’s it. Every supermarket around has a liquor store sharing its parking lot.
They got rid of the no Sunday liquor sales blue law last year. This legislative session there was a HUGE fight about selling full-strength beer in grocery stores. Liquor stores won this time around, but I think it’ll fall in the near future – and the way will be paved for future alcohol sales in stores.

They're in Massachusetts
Any given franchise is only allowed to have three stores with beer/wine sales in the state of Massachusetts., and Trader Joe’s has 16 stores here (obviously 13 of them have no alcohol sales). Not being able to sell alcohol definitely doesn’t seem to be a deal breaker for them, so hold out hope CO.

it's because of the rehab
from what I understand.
It has nothing to do with the actual tendon replacement (or is it a ligament? I dunno, I’m an English teacher), but rather all the work they go through to come back.
I believe if the average pitcher who wanted to improve and had no need for Tommy John just did the rehab, they’d probably get the same results. But again, that’s just what I’ve come to understand from hearing random other people who SEEM to know what they’re talking about. There are evidently a lot of people that frequent this board that know more about the human body than me with my freshman year of H.S. biology class background.

so you're more worried about wearing out the bullpen than the starters?
starters can’t show signs of fatigue from one start to the next?

Waino OPS against .683 (not counting tonight)
Carp OPS against .534

sometimes,
i think its okay to ask the pitcher how he feels. he’s a big boy, he knows if he can continue.

wouldn’t have gotten him anyways.

Would you have pulled Cole Hamels?
After your team scored 10 runs in the first inning of the game he starts, would you have pulled him and let someone else finish the game?
I would.

Nah, I'd let him get in a few innings
Then bring in the SS
