| Hudson | Lohse |
| 2.27 FIP | 4.43 FIP |
This is a pretty big start for Lohse. He may be pitching for any playing time at all in the postseason. He's making his first start in three weeks and, considering how well Smoltz has pitched, Lohse may not get the opportunity to make those game 4 starts in October. If not, he becomes the guy at the end of the pen who only pitches in extra innings or blowouts. He's gotta prove to Dunc and Tony that he deserves a more prominent role.

College football is more exciting and unpredictable than the NFL . . .
but I’m with you – baseball every time. Especially meaningful September baseball when the Cardinals are playing well.
College football has become the NFL minor leagues, though.
There are a few conferences that are like AAA teams, others AA, etc. And they all might as well be pros, for all the perks and under-the-table goodies they get.
I used to agree about college football being more exciting than pro. Now they’re both snores and bores. I’ll take our game any time. ANY time.

Anybody watching the Cubs-Reds game?
I remember the Reds announcers bloviating, back when we were playing them earlier (I think it was the game where Homer Bailey pitched very well), about how they had the best bullpen in the league.
RIIIIGHT.
Update: Marmol gives up 2 in the top of the 9th
then pegs the next batter. Accidentally, of course.
Now waiting to see if the Reds’ vaunted bullpen can get 3 outs before giving up 2 runs. I’m not optimistic.

man
marmol and heath bell are doing there best to make me lose in the first round of the playoffs! I had ERA and WHIP locked down before those two went crazy in the last 2 days.

Almost everyone ahead of Jeter on the all-time list
is in the Hall of Fame, or not yet eligible. Only exceptions are Andre Dawson (who will be, undeservedly), Vada Pinson, Al Oliver, Harold Baines. He’ll pass Oliver by season’s end.
Jeter, as much as it hurts to say it, is a seriously great player. That doesn’t make the media any less annoying.

I am and Ankiel fan.
And I don’t slam Colby. Stating that was his fault is not a slam. A slam would have been" OMG Cobly you fucking suck! Learn to call for a ball!!!" and most of the time when I criticize him it’s small stuff like not taking command of the outfield; which is mainly due to being a rookie.
It’s just for the most part im the only one doing it.

is a better hitter and CFer
"Ludwick, I could kiss you on the nuts!" - the red baron 7-29-09

I agree
Colby is a better CFer and a better hitter than Ankiel. And he will continue to get better as he gets more Experience and Ankiel goes over 30. However; I also don’t freak out when tony gives Ankiel a few starts in a row either due to Colby being hurt or in a prolong slump.
I feel ya
He should of been louder. That is just another thing in a rookie has to adjust to in the big league. I imagine you don’t have to yell as loud in the minors.

"Baseball is like Church, many attend, few understand" - Wes Westrum

that Lego ran into him, Bubble Boy sucks major ass. i’d say it’s about 50% his fault, 5% Lego’s, and 45% Bubbles.

poor communication in the OF between the 2 of them. I wasn’t meaning colby alone cost them 3 runs, just that the play itself cost 3 runs.

I mean, he was just throwing a fast ball over the middle to a pitcher. Just wanting him to put it in play. Not really expecting him to put it in the Bullpen.

"I remember once talking to one guy on the Cardinals and asking him what Pujols was like as a teammate. He said something that’s really special, if you think about it. He said: "Albert is so good that you feel like you let him down when you screw up." I thought that had to be the ultimate line that could ever be said about a ballplayer. I build my baseball team around that ballplayer."
