Wainwright takes the mound against Juirjeensjuijjns. The Cardinals will look to continue their win streak and their streak of quality starts. But the most important question is . . .
. . . will they score runs without the longball?!?!?!? Dun dun dun.

No, they will not score runs without the longball.

i like his oppo power
he’s smoked some balls that way, just didn’t get them up enough.
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
and heyward was playing him like directly on the RF line earlier in the series
Took away at least 2 bases.
"I told you, I don't like to be manhandled!"
He can go the other way
I’m not worried about that. He just suddenly has no power.

Wainwright has thrown ZERO fastballs in this game, so far. Interesting.
Is anyone actually watching the game
that can offer some insight as to Jurrjens’ injury? Just curious…how’d the hammy get pulled?

Bomb materials
I started working for Evinrude and Johnson right after they came out of bankruptcy; their assets were purchased by Bombardier Recreational Products. One of the guys I worked with was a regional service rep from Oklahoma and he had to come up to Chicago to attend training with the new company. When he shipped home a box of paperwork from here, he labeled it “Bomb. Mat’ls”. Which was a lot of fun for his wife, as the FBI showed up at 2 AM asking a lot of questions.

"I don't mean to sound bitter, cold, or cruel, but I am, so that's how it comes out." Bill Hicks
He hurt his wrist in the McDonalds All American game I believe
And shot left handed for 2/3 of the season. For as much shit as the Blazers seem to get for that (and I’m as big a Durant nuthugger as there is), it’s forgotten how insanely athletic Oden was at OSU.

i think at osu he was a man against boys
but in the nba he was just another center

he’s been in 82 games in 3 years
"I don't mean to sound bitter, cold, or cruel, but I am, so that's how it comes out." Bill Hicks
And when he did play, it was after getting microfracture surgery which kills your athleticism

we should start albert on the bench every game

But what is that opinion based on?
Would you rather have Justin Upton or Ryan Ludwick? Upton and Young Griffey are great comps for Heyward
Of all sad words of tongue or pen; the saddest are these: 'It might have been!'
if we are going by a month of the season
Freese looks to be almost as valuable because he plays good D at 3B and can hit. Luddy is also hitting very well. if we traded them away for one guy I am not sure I would be too happy about that this season. sure, in the long run it MAY be a good deal.

he costs nothing. if we threw in garcia with freeze and luddy, still don’t know if the braves could entertain it.
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
I am not arguing that fact
I am saying that Freese may be about as valuable as Heyward by the end of the season. we will see their WAR totals at the end of the season, right? then we can debate about it more.

I like this core of players. Consider this…
Colby Rasmus: 23 Years Old, 2/2, 4 runs, 2 walks
David Freese: 27 Years Old, 3/3, 2 runs, 6 RBI
Yadier Molina: 27 Years Old, 2/3, 2 RBI
THAT is how you afford Pujols and Holliday for the next 7-8 years, my brothers.
...you're not talkin' to the sisters too?

Freese has been better than advertised all year.
The dude’s solid.
I also forgot to include
His first inning dong in my sum-up. Agreed that he is clicking well.
This lineup at its best is scary good. Honestly, better than the Phillies good.
what about stav
.328/.389/.422 with 14 RBI
those stats do not belong to nikolas stavinohenheisen
"Moneyball: It's kind of like communism."
Well
If Freese sported his projected .320 BABIP, he’d be hitting about .250/.310/.340.

no idea (probably not)

"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
He was rumored
to be dealt for Ludwick or Ankiel. I wanted him, and I will want him this offseason if the D-backs don’t extend him. If he gets 20-25 homers, like i expect him to get, then maybe 2/12 is his deal?

With short bullet passes and long bombs, he marches his troops into enemy territory, balancing this aerial assault with a sustained ground attack that punches holes in the forward wall of the enemy's defensive line.

I’m a bit pessimistic as to whether he can keep up that pace. Depends what you have at 2b behind him and what you need I guess.

His RBI total was the highest one-game total for a rookie since 1925.
Freese’s RBI binge was only the seventh time in club history that a player had a six-RBI game within his first 162 games as a player. Two other Cardinals to do so — both of whom were on the team last summer — started their careers as pitchers.

so...
i sort of have a longstanding disagreement with this guy on a mizzou blog i frequent. anyway, we got into a bit yesterday/today and he made the following comment. just thought i’d share it and get your guys’ thoughts about it. anyway…
Well, who am I supposed to be impressed with?
Rasmus and Ludwick have been solid if unspectacular. Brendan Ryan has been awful. Freese and Schumaker have been relatively spare. Yadier Molina has not been good this year. Felipe Lopez is shaping up to be a good signing, but he is what he is: a fourth infielder.
As for the pitching, both Wainwright and Garcia’s success is (I suspect) largely a product of an extremely low BABIP (.221 for Garcia, .228 for Wainwright). I’m confident that Wainwright can maintain a mid-3s ERA, but that BABIP is going to catch up to Garcia. Penny’s been impressive to be sure, but I remain skeptical of any pitcher on the wrong side of 30 (and Penny turns 33 in a couple weeks) with a history of injury. Carpenter’s Carpenter, and Lohse is a LOL factory.
And everything comes with a Small Sample Size disclaimer. So, no, I’m not convinced of either.

to paraphrase: against ignorance, even the GOB’s toil in vain. (anyone know who i’m quoting – i’m blanking on it)
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
he makes some valid points.
garcia will regress i’m sure. wainwright probably won’t. at least not much. he’s proven that he is this good. boog has been awful, and freese and schu have just been decent. luddy is solid.
i might be inclined to be skeptical about penny, but: dave duncan.
BUT, Molina has been incredibly clutch this year, and to say he hasn’t been good is simply wrong. and Rasmus has been spectacular. that’s the truth.

he makes some good points as the team stands today, but boog and skippy will get better. i’m fine with freese right now. my main point was that he’s just totally wrong about colby
"Did you just grow a mustache?"
"While SPINNING."
meh, he's not really making any salient points
Saying that low BABIPs are unsustainable is hardly revelatory. Are you kidding me that Wainwright’s success is largely a product of his low BABIP. Largely? STFU. By pitch value, he has the second best curvenball in the league (trailing only Carp), so don’t tell me his success is predicated on luck. Not to mention he put together a Cy Young caliber season last year without a generous BABIP. Same goes for Jaime. Sure, it’s not sustaiable, but there’s every indication this kid is employing the winning Dave Duncan formula to great success. He’s inducing a league leading 71% GB rate, That’s not just luck, its skill and strategy, and although that rate is certainly going to come down and the BABIP’s going to rise, there’s no indication he won’t still be a very solid pitcher. And Rasmus unspectacular? Please. He’s leading the league in multiple offensive categories, while playing plus defense in centerfield. If he’s not playing spectacularly, then no one is. I could go on, but you see where I’m headed. Just because some downward regression is due for some of these guys (and notice he fails to take account of probable upward regression, like in Holliday’s case) doesn’t mean they aren’t going to still be successful when they settle.
this has got to end.

Ugh
Not that I disagree on Waino’s projection or even that his CB is killer, but the fangraphs pitch value stuff INCLUDES that BABIP luck. All that stuff is nearly worthless because it all depends on usage/luck/a pitcher’s other pitches.
Not afraid to nitpick
I should have clarified
because I knew after I posted someone was going to bring that up. Of course his BABIP is going to factor into his pitch value. I would think that goes without saying. But the point, however unclear, was that this guy has a killer curveball, is widely regarded around the league as having one, mounted a Cy Young campaign largely on the strength of that pitch, etc. Recognizing that, I just don’t see how you can say his success is predicated “largely” on being lucky. Besides, even if luck on balls in play might be factoring into the strength of his curveball and his overall success, what about the guys he’s striking out with the curveball. That’s just luck too?
I am personally offended by the Rasmus comment.

Here's how retarded the Rasmus remark is
Colby LEADS the National Leage in OBS (.459) and SLG (.746).
That is not “solid, if unspectacular”. That is DOMINANT.
how much more spectacular does he need?

does anyone ever wonder if these people we argue with go on VEB and see us reproducing the fight?
i argue with this guy at my work all the time, and sometimes he says the most ridiculous shit I want to put it on here. but then i wonder what would happen if he saw me doing that. of course, i guess it would make him sort of lame to be checking cardinals blogs to see if i post anything.

I don't get it
Felipe Lopez is a better hitter than Schumaker or Freese while playing 2.5 positions. He’d be starting on an easy majority of teams. It’s amazing how people get pigeonholed based on their salary.

colby's whole demeanor this year has changed
i see a noticeable difference in his on-field attitude. probably has something to do with not being hazed anymore.

GIBBY DIDN'T GIVE A FUCK
In the wake of the Dallas Braden-Alex Rodriguez tiff, I asked FOX’s Tim McCarver if the A’s left-hander was justified in telling A-Rod, "This is my mound, my rubber."
"Absolutely — I love that," McCarver said. "That’s his space."
Braden grew upset during the sixth inning Thursday when Rodriguez cut across the mound while returning to first base on a foul ball.
"The first person that I ever heard refer to the mound as his office was Gibson," McCarver said, referring to his former teammate, Hall of Famer Bob Gibson. "And (Steve) Carlton picked that up.
"In fact, when Pete Rose would make an out — particularly on a flyball unless it was the third out of an an inning — he would intentionally run over the back of the mound on his way back to the dugout if the dugout was on the third-base side. He would intimidate rookie pitchers in that regard.
"He tried that once with Gibson in the mid-60s and Gibson threw at him the next time up. Pete spat at him. And the next one was a lot closer. Pete didn’t spit the second time."
Gibson’s philosophy?
"You never come into my office unless you’re invited — and you’ll never be invited," McCarver said. -Ken Rosenthal

no, that can’t be right. but i thought it was awesome to see him yell at a-rod.

Gibby is the man, i wonder if he's passed on some knowledge to Carp & Wagonmaker?

Still would love to see clips of Gibson and Ron Hunt. I posted this earlier. .
Hunt, a St. Louis product I think, was good a faking being hit by pitches. He led off against Gibson and successfully pretended to be hit. Next time up Gibby drilled him in the ribs. Next time the kness. Last AB Hunt was bailing out of the box as Gibby wound up. . .
