wonder if Theo's regretting the Duncan/Lugo trade?

can't blame him for making it
Lugo was playing about as well as Duncan was….both teams wanted to get rid of both guys, it made perfect sense. Nobody saw Lugo coming here and posting a .960ish OPS

I'm a Cards fan
but Dan’s gushing over every player (except Colby) and the fans and everything has become insufferable. I just cannot stand to listen to him any longer!
I beg to differ
I have to put up with the occasional Cubs radio broadcast, and Ron Santo is the King Homer, hands down! He lives and dies, on-air, play to play — assuming you can keep him awake the whole time. Pat Hughes is quite good, though, probably the only thing that makes it remotely listenable.

yes
Dan and Al were calling for Colby to be the starting everyday CF. When they are criticizing him it is normally simple mistakes. They are not calling out his ability or drive. (like AL did with Yadi.) They also criticize other players too. I think you are just not focusing in on this.
They may not be right all on the it, but I do not feel they are overly criticizing him and ignoring everyone else’s mistakes.

BTW: That was my fault
Very superstitious about my scorecard. Must have all innings completed correctly before the start of the next half inning, etc., and normally do not switch with the evil twin in the middle of a half.
ET was scoring right before Denny’s came in, made his remark about ending up at Reyes, and decided he would post a comment. Hands me the scorecard, then proceed to give up 5 straight singles. Realize the mistake, hand it back, immediately Yadi to first to get out of the inning.

yea, i don't get it
man on 2nd, no out
probability of someone knocking him in is the sum of their BAs (or OBP to some degree), but 3 .250 hitters in a row means a 75% chance of getting a hit and knocking him in. is the probability really higher with a man at 3rd and one out?

Walker did have the best baseball sense I've ever seen
I swear he did it multiple times where he’d run at less than full speed on his way home so the throw would get through to advance the runner but it still wouldn’t be all that close.

This whole thing has me completely intrigued. I think it has something to do with a superstition, because no one can like that, right?

well the Delilah Show thing is actually an abberation.

So assuming Smoltz becomes a FA on Monday......
Is there a team out there that has a better spot for him than the Cards? He said he would throw out of the bullpen. I can’t find the article to link that I read today. Who does it come down to? Cards and Dodgers?

I don't think the Dodgers need more bullpen help.

Dan should never be with Ricky
normally, Dan’s on-air fellatio of certain players is pretty bad but when he gets with ‘the cool kid’ Ricky Horton, he can’t stop talking. He’s like that 8 year old that hands out with the 13 year old that lives down the street and can’t stop talking because he wants the other kid to think he is cool. He literally was interrupting himself so he could say something else.
My new favorite thing to do is after Dan shows how much he loves a player (like Skip, Franklin, Ankiel, DeRosa, Holliday) I’ll just randomly blurt out "Why don’t you just go down there and kiss him on the mouth?

Hey, HCL, if you've got something to say, don't sugar-coat it. We're (mostly) adults here. . . .
But . . . since I don’t hear the team, is Dan really that partial and obvious?

the cell phone coverage ain't great

I found that in PNC Park, during the first 4 innings of the game I couldn't get service
with Sprint, where I get service just about everywhere. With all those people in one place, it could be causing service drops.

service is usually fine in Busch
at least the internet is…I know because I follow VEB during the games even when I’m at the stadium ::shamefaced::
When there's a close call,
or something happens and we don’t know the explanation (such as a player coming out of the game), I check VEB, too.
