PrintLet's review what we learned tonight:
Adam Wainwright is a horse.
Ryan Ludwick is not slumping any more.
Yadi left the game with a bruised knee, but this surprisingly led to a chain of events which resulted in everyone getting a free snowcone.
Ryan Franklin still sucks.
Joe Thurston really does suck, in a non-light-hearted, carefree internet sarcasm, ha ha chuckle chuckle wink wink nudge nudge kind of way.
"Shrinking violet" refers to a shy person.
They throw rolls at you in Sikeston.
Tony LaRussa is CRAZY WAZY.
Did I forget anything?

y'know
as ugly as this team has looked at times this year, they’re at 90 wins now, and have 7 games left….they could still win 95. They have 1 more game @ Colorado, then the next series is @ Cincy and we finish in STL vs. the Brewers….it’s possible….but who knows what Tony is going to do lineup-wise with the remainder of the schedule.
speaking of which
the Brewers beat the Phillies again. Philly is 89-65 so we’re a half game ahead of them.

and has turned into a passable hitter
before he was starting on a regular basis, he was terrible at the plate IIRC
I think that's partly a product of playing time
His timing is crap if he hasn’t seen live pitches in a while. s’why I hold my breath whenever he comes back from a layoff. he was scouted as a decent hitter in the past.

slap hitter
it’s all he needs to be. Be able to make reliable contact and have a decent OBP. His defense is what puts him on the roster.
i'm hoping he gets smarter about the basepaths
he’s got good speed.
yeah, lots and lots of things about boog are just unpolished. but he really turned the corner mentally and physically, and he’s been working his tail off. that’s what’ll endear him to Cards fans more than anything else.

I don't know about postgame
but his final inning call was pretty run-of-the-mill… “here’s a little dribbler to second… he flips to the pitcher covering… and that’s it! The Cardinals are division champions!”
something close to that

I picked a hell of a time to step out of STL.
I’ve been up here in Chicago for two weeks, was supposed to come home on Thursday but decided to extend the trip to next Thursday (looking for a PR job), and I would have kicked myself if my buddy’s Comcast package didn’t come through with a free preview of MLB Network. This wasn’t a game I could watch – soundless – at a bar.
Just have to say, and it isn’t hindsight, I was deadset AGAINST Wainwright being taken out in the eighth. This was his win to get or his to lose, and it showed the competitiveness and the fucking balls this guy has to touch 130 pitches for a Giambi strikeout. Lately, he’s been a bad-luck-loser or getting no-decisions and it would have been horrible for someone else to come in with his men on and risk taking away his win.
It was the right move and I give Tony credit for going against the situation and letting his player, just this once, play the game for HIMSELF. I have no doubt in my mind, Tony thought ’Waino’s earned the right to finish this on his terms, and put himself in line for 20 wins.’ And sure enough, Adam nutted up and got it done in fine form.
Go Cards. Heal your aches, go over your game plans and come out firing throughout these playoffs.
I once shot a man just to see him die...then I got distracted and missed it.
Goold taken out by the dousing mafia
Was the target of a dousing hit put out by the General Manager. It was carried out by a pre-arbitration reliever. Go figure.

Last time I made it to Busch II was in 1987.

Making the most of it
Nice pull.
Never made it myself. 30 years of craning my neck to the radio, and still haven’t.
I got to go there thrice
2002, 04 and 05 or something like that. Last game I saw at Busch ended on an Abraham Nunez (REMEMBER HIM?) walkoff single. Fitting ending.

Late night, early morning two-cents' worth contribution. As of April who would have foreseen . .. .
. . .. this outcome with this lineup? Dunc and Barden exilted. Thursty sucking in gulps previously reserved for Etaban Yan and Pedro Bourbon, Dunc Sr. going postal, Tony (sorta) smiling, Carp on the mend, Luddy middlin’, Smoltz a critical fixture for post season. . . . go figure, and Cards nation be happy – at least for now. . .

albert is one wily dude
First he had to have the right tool. A big basin of ice-cold water, sprinkled liberally with ice cubes, ones still left floating from the stuff they packed the champagne. Second, he had to have a hiding place. If Albert Pujols was going to pull this off again — another celebration, another stalking — then he had to find a place that manager Tony La Russa wouldn’t see him.
Third, he needed an accomplice.
Third-base coach Jose Oquendo handled that well.
Urging La Russa from the coaches’ office in the visitors’ clubhouse here at Coors Field, Oquendo led the skipper into a semi-annual trap. Out from behind a tandem of large shipping containers, Pujols popped with a tub full of the ice water. With Oquendo no longer urging, but pushing La Russa toward Pujols — the tub dumped right on top of the managers’ head. Pujols called it one of his most successful Tony dips ever.
"I get him every year," Pujols said. "He doesn’t make it easy. Every year he tries to stay away, and it gets tougher. But this year, I got him. I think I got him good."

re: SNOWCONES
"I don’t really understand how I did it," LaRue said of his first homer since May 7. "It feels great."
Home field
I feel these last two games have shown that the Cards don’t need home field to succeed in the playoffs.
They’re going to send in Carp and Adam for the first two games. In a playoff atmosphere with a hostile crowd and a dangerous offensive team whose backs are against the wall facing a shrinking Wild Card lead, they just threw 15 innings yielding only 3 earned on 15 hits. Provided the bats overcome their current bout with narcolepsy, repeating that performance would have to get the Cards at least a road split, if not up 2-0, and a chance to win the series at home.

Is the stigma of “man made” gemstones. Man made emeralds at least are BETTER than natural stones. They’re flawless and the color is so much more brilliant. I don’t get it, it’s like someone clinging to SD over HDTV because it’s “classic”.

Define "value"
Realistic value or “Market” value?
Places like Phoenix got waaaay too into the housing boom. Builders and Owners got waaaaay too greedy.
Run Vince run! There's a tarp chasing you! Run! It's right behind you!
because
most of those house where made with subpar materials. And 3 years is extremely short term. Houses are decades long investments.
And yes, livability should factor into every decision when buying/upgrading a house. But it doesn’t hurt to consider resale value of a house when buying upgrades like counter tops / Cabinets / flooring. Because when you got to sell it in 10-15 years due to life style changes you will be able to recoup as much money as possible.
Yeah, I don't think of my house as an investment, per se
but I’m doing what I can to make sure we turn a profit when we sell it in five years or so.

Stupid dresses.

Run Vince run! There's a tarp chasing you! Run! It's right behind you!
that's semi-understandable
they don’t buy the dress to wear
they buy the dress for the photographs, which will hang (on you) forever. these days, from all angles.
that’s why there’s effin’ drama about what the immediate family wears, because they’ll be in the photos.

The weird thing is that the Cardinals, Dodgers, and Phillies all have similar records for home and away. Most of the time you have at least one team like the Cub’s with a winning Home record and a losing away record. I guess Colorado is that this year.

To quote Tim McCarver: “You talk about throwed rolls…”
I haven’t been there in a decade or more since I moved to CHicagoland. After our last visit I heard about some drama concerning the owner’ s suicide.
Hmm. I think last time I was tehre was the year after our last annual Current River trip. A friend flew us over the flooded Mississippi in ‘93. We registered in line (45m or so wait), went to a nearby DQ and has massive Blizzards, then ate so much at Lambert’s we almost couldn’t walk back to the plane.
There's also one in Ozark, Mo.

Why was the ball that injured Yadi not an out? Strike foul, ball never hit the ground and was caught.

foul tip... was it on strike three?

"Obviously, tipping pitches didn't help" - John Smotzl

Yes...
But you are underestimating the importance of the Cubs’ record with Al in attendance, and their record on various TV networks. IT’S IMPORTANT.

Well,
that statement was inaccurate, anyway. We clinched in the previous thread. It took many comments before the Cubs were brought up.
Of course, I’m not a Cubs-hating Cards fan. I really could give a profane shit.

how can you hate the cubs? they aren’t much to worry about

This comment from the esteemed "Al" made me LOL...
There’s the difference.
If the Cardinals had clinched against the Cubs, I’d have expected the dissing. But the Cubs were 1000 miles away from the clinching.
Perhaps it’s due to delusional individuals like himself that predicted the Cubs to win the division by 5 games. And this was at the All-Star break no less, when it was clear they weren’t very good. I’m sure it was more like 15 games in the spring.
V, b.
no kidding
correct me if I’m wrong but at the end of July/beginning of August the Cubbies were actually in 1st place.
There's a whole lot of crying that is going on over there.
If you can’t actually win games, I guess you’re supposed to talk down about other fans and feel morally superior.
Also, that site lacks a basic understanding of sabermetrics.

My, that's an understatment.
Al loves talking about “stat guys might say…” and build up ridiculous strawmen.

Was sure we would see Ankiel
Because Ludwick would be listed as DNP (Stop N Rob / Giant Slalom)
Run Vince run! There's a tarp chasing you! Run! It's right behind you!

JoeStrauss Freese startin at 3B, no Khalil. Read into it what you will. TLR says K. Greene offers most value off bench. Khalil: "No comment.

Indian Ball...
a fly to right is an automatic out.
Ghostrunners only advance one base at a time.

why not Khalil at third, DeRo in right and Luddy in center?
TLR’s probably decided to have some fun with a names-out-of-a-hat scenario. wait, what am i saying…TLR doesn’t have fun…“he works in professional baseball.”

Colby was sober
But Tony couldn’t tell the difference when he spoke.
Who needs affection when you can have blind hatred?
that is so true.

Yeah true.
I hope he’s figured out how to handle that by now.

he's young
that’s the last stage of development, just about the tail end, so that’s the last window for body changes.
