St. Louis Cardinals at Pittsburgh Pirates, Aug 8, 2009 7:05 PM EDT
 |
 |
| Wainwright | Morton |
| 3.42 FIP | 4.04 FIP |
Charlie Morton came over in the Nate McLouth trade and he's been very good in 9 starts, though he's averaging just under 5 IP/start. His K/BB is 1.88 and his HR/9 is just 0.81. He throws strikes and gets ground balls (48.6% GB%) with his 4 pitch repertoire of fastball, slider, curveball and changeup. To this point his curve has been his most effective pitch but we're talking about less than 45 innings. Also, we know how our hitters tend to fare when facing a pitcher for the first time. Be prepared for a low scoring game.

Thats a very sad thought
to start off a game thread

Not in a good mood right now
For other reasons.
Maybe I shouldn´t have started off the thread… at least it wasn´t “FRIST POTS1”

Yes but "FRIST POTS1"
doesnt make me want to throw something at the tv, something I can not say about Welle

pre-game repost
Boog:
Talkin’ to Shannon.
He’s ready to go off the bench.
And he was genuinely grateful when Shannon said he’d blossomed this year.
I want the ball. I want the ball. That’s where the fun’s at!
We know, Boog. We know.
He’d like to be at shortstop for many years to come.
Mentioned more chances to flash the glove and play all over the place. Still "soaking it up" from all the other guys, in terms of his game.
Boooooog.
Wainer:
He likes the preparation and how much he wants it.
Carp had a locker next to him in ’04 and saw him grow up to be a man in his own image. Okay, I made that one up.
Stache talk! They ask Wainwright about it. "When we started it, we played some really bad baseball…" Wanted to mix it up, etc. Somebody at the starter table yelled out ‘mustache’. Everybody jumped on the bandwagon, killed for about six games. Then they stunk again and everyone jumped off. "Me and Joel and a few others are still rockin’ it."
Wainer wants to close out a World Series … as a starter.

from the article:
Albert Pujols is 2-for-2 with a double, two walks and three RBIs against Morton in his career.

It kind of makes me sick...
Today I was at the Museo de la Nacion in Lima, Peru (my home country). I spent quite a bit of time at an exhibit that memorializes the Guerrilla uprising here that began some 30 odd years ago, and only ended around 1998.
Guerilla tactics are designed to maximize the bloodshed in confrontation by using innocent villagers as shields. My father himself was captured and held hostage. My uncle had to flee the country. My mother was in constant danger just for being a member of the press.
To me, this symbol is like wearing a swastika.

It is poking
fun at the obsession with and reverence for Che.

Is not just some American t-shirt phenomenon. It is a real Guerilla symbol that actual Guerillas use. People with automatic machine guns have stood next to their recent victims praising this symbol.

here's the thing
the image of Che means something in mainstream American culture, that is something on the line of being trendy and ironic.
the question is, are we going to accept that there are Cardinal fans everywhere, and not just in mainstream America? and include everyone in the VEB community? It’s not anybody’s fault that it’s offensive, but what we do with it is certainly within our power.

i am actually well read in Latin American history. I wrote my senior thesis on American colonialism so have a general idea. But Che was bigger than just communism. He was revolution against the old guard, imo.

In other news: God, Boston plays so slowly. Losing to the Yankees in a 3-0 game, they’ve been playing for three hours and it’s only the top of the eighth. It seems every game involving the Red Sox lasts for three and a half hours. They must be allowed twice as long between pitches.

Colby has a 19% LD rate (higher than Ankiel and Pujols) and has a 47.4 % FB rate, same as Pujols.
