The 09 Cards have to be in the running, this is ridiculous. I even remember early in the year, with runners on the corners, one of our guys (Lohse?) actually got the guy on first with a Statue of Liberty move.

WPA
KKKKMac .200 (how about that? he faced I think 7 batters and struck out 4 of them)
Teh Suck .143
Admiral Smoltzinski .095 (sure didn’t think he’d do that well after that awful first inning)
Holliday .242
DeRo .169
Lugo .064
all other Cards batters were negative. Pujols dead last @ -.142, presumably because of the weak AB versus Greg. Won’t see that too often.
Lilly had a .251, Gregg an .052, Heilman -.357.
I think it’s amazing we saw a game managed by LaRussa and Piniella with only six pitchers total.
K-Mac was awesome
The managers restrained their natural tendencies to try to outsmart each other, largely due to the gaping maw of threatening extra innings in game 1 of a big series, I’d think.

Classic kid moment. I was teaching journalism in Seoul, and set up a truly sweet girl to interview Herzog who was in Korea for a promotion.
Kid (with coached question): How can small and mid-market teams compete with major-market francises?
Herzog (9:00 am and surrounded by crushed beer cups) What the fuck’s it to you, girly?

as sabermetricians I think we need to understand
that the friend zone is a fallacy. sometimes a girl is your friend and isn’t interested in you; other times a girl is your friend but really is interested in you. that doesn’t mean that you missed your chance, just that there never was a chance.
That, or she's just waiting for you to make your move
because she’s told by experts that she’ll know when a guy is interested, and the longer nothing happens, the less she believes anything is possible.
This happens to everyone.
"I’m going to come after you." - Chris Carpenter
So true

It's seen as outside of
the church’s interpretation of god’s parameters. Some people choose to interpret differently.
The alternative to sex before marriage seems to be early marriages. And those aren’t working out well, mainly b/c people are getting married young, getting knocked up, and then realizing they got married for all the wrong reasons.
"I’m going to come after you." - Chris Carpenter
I believe outside of marriage it’s not what God intended. I also believe you should not get married because you want to have sex. I can understand how this would be hard. I don’t really know how to fix it. Except maybe don’t make it such a terrible thing to talk about in church. Explain things more. There are a lot of confused kids out there because their parents and pastors and churches don’t discuss things like that and they don’t know what to do.

Ah.
Suppose his girlfriend doesn’t like baseball as much as you do, he wanted his girlfriend to become friends with you so that some of your baseball enthusiasm would rub off on her and make them that much happier together, and he wasn’t flirting-but trying to make his girlfriend a new friend?
This scenario may be implausible depending on what passes for flirting these days.

He has some offensive upside:
TLR will feel free to PH LaRue late in a game in a double switch instead of using Piniero or Wainwright as a PH since the third catcher is available on the bench in case of catastrophe.
It’s a marginal, but real, upgrade.

It’s a long story but I’ll tell it anyway. So it’s 2007 and I’m babysitting and the people have no cable. I don’t know what to watch because the little girl is already in bed and I’m bored. It’s October so the playoffs are on but I had forgotten because I wasn’t as big a baseball fan as I am now and the ALDS was on that night and my parents being good NL parents brought me up to not care too much about the Al except that the Yankees should always lose. So I was flipping through the channels and saw baseball was on and (I remember this exchange in my head very clearly) I was like, Baseball. OH wait it’s the Yankees, Gross. Oh wait the Yankees are losing, interesting. Hey that guy playing center field for this other team is pretty attractive. Okay I’ll watch. So I watched the Indians beat the Yankees and fell in love. I don’t know with what. Everyone says it’s only because of Grady but that’s not true. I don’ think any amount good looks would make up for the epic fail that was 2008 and is 2009.

They met in 2002 when the Cards were in Seattle for Interleague
They were both coming off their rookie years.
Pujols asked Ichiro for a bat. He signed it and handed it to Albert.
Albert asked for a second one, persistent that it be unsigned. Turns out Albert was on a research mission. He wanted to try out his bat in BP to see what made Ichiro so good.
“I wanted to know what kind of wood it was and what was making him better”
Albert ultimately decided the bat was too small.
Anyway, I just thought it was interesting. Albert being Albert, even then.

he was absolutely dealing
he only had runners on more than one base twice (I think) and he worked his way out of trouble. We were surprised when they pulled him, but the scoreboard was messed up and I didn’t know what the pitch count was. MacLane was very nice and I also talked to his mother- turns out he is from Chico CA which is about 80 miles from Sac (and where I went to college). It’s somethin’ special to see the winning pitchers mom with tears in her eyes.
And Wallace didn’t look all that impressive (first impressions, I know)-

Shut up, Fritz™.
If Holliday is signed
it was a brilliant trade. We spent big (at the time) for Rolen, I don’t see why we can’t again. Even in the worst economic conditions since the early ‘80s, we’ve put over 3 million butts in the seats.

They are a lot alike. Probably why they’re my two favorite players. Colby wins defensively though.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
agreed
Colby is so smooth. I don’t watch Sizemore regularly though – how do they compare for speed? CRas is faaaast.
This season isn’t fair because Grady’s been playing through a groin injury all year. I think though Colby’s faster. There are a lot of balls Grady would have to dive for that Colby can get to standing. Mostly what makes Colby a better defender though is his arm.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
no way
i don’t know that much about grady, but colby’s defensive upside is absolutely not his arm. and his arm is pretty good
Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.
they really are very similar
Cody’s way faster though, that’s what makes him better
pretzels pretzels pretzels pretzels
I think speed does go to Colby hands down but Grady steals more. That’s probably not Colby’s fault though.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
yeah, Cody should steal moar
Grady’s great, but you’re right about his arm too. but i wouldn’t call it terrible, i’d say it’s average. CF’s dont always have the best arms in the OF either.
pretzels pretzels pretzels pretzels
It’s terrible. You have to remember every throw he makes he is putting all he has into that throw. And it goes nowhere. It’s sad really.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
what we're saying here
is that Razzle Dazzle is a very exciting player who’s extremely valuable. Clear upside. HAS to stay healthy though.
Definitely needs to stay healthy. A hurt Grady was still acceptable but was painful to watch. I think he should be good for next year though. Or at least I hope so.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
Combined with an elbow injury. He’s an idiot for playing through it, but an awesome, wonderful, best-idiot-ever idiot.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
i sometimes thought
Albert was a candidate for best-idiot-ever idiot for playing with an elbow that was on the edge of blowing out at any given moment.

that elbow has held out for an awfully long time. Playing 1st is a good way to keep him from having to throw much.
i've never thought it was terrible
it’s not great, but it’s far from the worst. he’s no borne that’s for damn sure. now there’s a pathetic arm
pretzels pretzels pretzels pretzels
I don’t know. It makes me laugh sometimes and be very sad other times. I may not have the best comparisons but I think the general concensus is that it’s pretty darn bad.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
And his throws are ridiculously slow and don’t go that far.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
Shows how little you know about Grady. Grady’s arm is terrible. Terrible. It’s accurate but he’s not ever throwing anyone out anywhere.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
i guess i misunderstood you
i thought you were praising colby’s arm as his main defensive plus
Of course, hope means being cut down on some street corner, as you run like mad, by a random bullet.
as far as hitting is concerned
they seem dead on comps to me too. also similar builds. speaking of Colby getting to balls standing – my bro and i were debating tonight. Bro was saying that Ankiel was better in CF last year than Ras this year. I suggested it just seems less exciting bc Ras glides to a ball and makes the catch standing whereas Ankiel is at the edge of his range and has to stretch or dive.
I think he will consistently be an underrated defender because of this. He’s not going to get very many Webgems or be on highlight reels because they don’t give awards for running to the ball fast.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
well put
he just glides over, camps under and makes the catch. Plus he’s so even-keeled out there. At some point he’ll prob get ripped by the media for playing without passion. Which is weak.
I’ll cry for him on this day. And then throw something at the TV.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
I think he will eventually
just needs to get comfortable with the limit of his range and more confident with his ability to read the ball of the bats of the best in the game. There are balls he doesn’t get to now that he will get to next year, I think.
Guys like Bradley are exactly why we can't have a pumpkin patch anymore.

He has succeeded in Colorado (Helton) and St. Louis (Pujols).

I think DeWitt has enough $$$

No need to pay DeRo that much.
I could easily see Holliday signing a backloaded contract going from 14-18 over the course of the contract.

If DeRo is happy
I’d bet he’d sign around 5M coming off surgrey.

I could see even less
Wrist injuries scare the shit out of me and I don’t write the checks.

agreed
and at some point it becomes worth it. Maybe $3m? But we have so many internal options that could likely match or exceed DeRo’s offensive production. And don’t get me started on his “defense”
He's a good utility guy
but not a 3B. He could fill in if Freese or Craig really can’t do it at third regularly, but Lugo’s the RH at his natural position and our outfield is stacked.
I can’t see the front office slotting more than $3M for that utility/bench role.

the nice thing about DeRo
other teams will still want his bat and defensive flexibility, esp. if he goes ahead and has the surgery quickly.
This is in contrast to Glaus, who’s probably worth bupkis on the FA market right now.
i'd much rather have Glaus back
but the team loves them some DeRo so i’d bet the farm MO will bring him back

I think the guy’s just damaged goods. I’m blown away he even took ABs with the Cards this year. But the only reason he makes the playoff roster is cause Tony thinks he can DH.
i think he's done this year
with his oblique acting up now, Tony sounds pissed he’s still not playing every day.
for some reason though, i trust him more than DeRo next season.
pretzels pretzels pretzels pretzels
fair enough
if he can prove to the team he can play third over a full MLB season, he’ll be worth whatever he gets in arby.
DeRo’s wrist scares me less than Glaus’ shoulder, I guess.

he’ll have at least one 7+ WAR season

Columbus didn’t have the instruments to measure that then.
UZR uses errors as a parameter, for Pete’s sake. I’m looking forward to seeing whether Tango’s “a million eyeballs” defense evaluation strategy will work better than MGL’s.
The only defensive metric that I really like is Pinto’s PMR, and that’s mainly because the charts for very bad and very good defenders are so hilarious.

I like the show
I could do without all the personal drama stuff, but I’m a big fan of watching people who are really good at something do what they do well. I suppose that makes it food porn, but I tend to reserve that appellation for shows like Giada de Laurentis’s, where there’s the cheesy music and the extreme close-ups on her hands on the ingredients.

I seriously doubt they have a monogamous relationship either. Jason Bay, his best friend, is pretty frank about Grady’s not having one girl at a time.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
He was telling a story about his wife and him inviting Grady on a couples cruise. And Jason’s like so you think you can find a date. Grady’s like um yeah.

ooh
that’s tough.
Molina isn’t in the same category of hitter, but Molina’s ability at preventing WP/PBs and ridiculous laser rocket arm should go some way to making that up….honestly I’d imagine there are few things that give a team more of psychological boost than picking a guy off—when Franklin picked off Theriot in the 9th that was HUGE….I know Mauer is considered a good catcher, but is he Yadi good?
I think I’d give Yadi/Pujols the edge just on homer bias…..
I've seen maybe 40 games where Mauer has caught
from what I can tell he’s elite
Yadi and Pudge are the only catchers I think are better
Teams will still run on him, but he catches them at a good rate
It's official. Cardinals third basemen are jinxed.
by YesWeOquendo on Sep 19, 2009 4:31 AM EDT up reply actions
sounds about right
Yadi is otherwordly behind the plate. At the plate, he has become an adequate hitter….his OPS is in the .730s right now, which AFAIC means he’s a good hitter, for a catcher. We all know that Yadi seems to do well in high lvrg/RISP type situations too.
But Mauer is on a historically Great pace for any position…..that plus him being plus in the field makes him potential first-ballot HOF if he can keep it up and not break down.
Maybe I’m biased but any combination with Pujols in it is porbably better than any other combination out there.
