The Cardinls have never gone to a World series in a year ending in 9. Every other year they have: 1930, 31, 42, 82, 43, 34, 44, 64, 2004, 85, 26, 46, 2006, 67, 87 , 28 & 68. But no 9s, Could this be the year?

The slider has been sooooo inconsistent

since he’s been in STL. If he can throw it with any degree of regularity he’ll be very good. Still needs something to keep lefties off him though.

When I watched him in the minors

he had a breaking pitch that was more curve than slider and it was very good. He’s got several different looks to his pitches but he doesn’t seem to have quite the command as a starter.

Looking at the PITCHf/x it looks like more of a power curve based on the spin axis. It’s always been a little slurvy but I tend to call anything that isn’t clearly a curveball a slider.

All four pitches to Rick were strikes

He watched three and swung through one of them. I don’t want him on this team next year. Something is broken.

"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.

I can't agree with that

I’ve seen nothing to suggest that people often slide that far out of the baseline and the umps fail to call it. And most of the time the infielder converts the DP anyway, so the point is moot and the call isn’t made.

Guys slide away from the base all the time, true, but most of the time they stay in what one could call a generalized arms-reach of second. But Holliday was, as guayzimi said, egregiously far away from second.

and on those 2 or 3 times

the ss clears the runner and completes the play, thus there is no need for the call. It is only when the slide causes a misplay like hollidays that you will see the call.
