| Chris Carpenter | Dan Haren |
The temperature is relatively mild, as far as recent nights go, so Carpenter should only sweat through 2 jerseys tonight.
Carpenter is bruised and fuming on the inside, no doubt. I'm sure the best medicine for getting drilled on the pitching forearm would be some RUN SUPPORT. As this Gamethread is born, the Cardinals quickly jump out to a 2-0 lead.
Random note...how many times have we played the Diamondbacks this year, seriously?
Commence the eeling.

My friend and I were discussing how Haren's peripherals all seem to be in line with his usual year except HR/FB
And how he’s probably having a slightly unlucky year.
That said, this is awesome so far.

On a related note, does anyone run with their Iphone? I have an otter case and it really sucks to run with. I end up just carrying it with me. I would like a good case for running and something besides the earbuds. Then I could listen to the game and run!
Yup
I’m about to head out with my iPhone and the MLB app — I did a LOT of research to find the best case and ended up with a Marware case that I like a lot. Here’s an Amazon link.

- thing was about a foot and a half long, latched on to my shoe and I opened the door and sent it flying into the Thai sky. . . .go Cards, go lizard

one time I was staying in a bamboo hut at some nature reserve and there was a little lizard in the shower. I picked it up by the tail. The lizard scampered away without it and the tail proceeded to wiggle, sans lizard, in my hand. I had the willies for a week.

the Ludwick in the box is both hurt and not hurt. if you open the box, he is penciled in.

can someone explain this "out of pocket"
when did it start to mean incommunicado, or off-line, rather than it’s traditional meaning, such as out-of-pocket expenses?
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
Out of pocket
meaning like a quarterback out of the pocket. Fang hasn’t been here.
I’m pretty sure in big situations, they’d walk him [Pujols] to get to Babe Ruth.-- Matt Holliday
i know what people are saying lately when they are using this
but when did this happen? it is a very old expression that meant nothing like that.
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
i don't remember
i’ve been using it for about two years though.

Um.
That’s a fairly traditional football term.
I’m pretty sure in big situations, they’d walk him [Pujols] to get to Babe Ruth.-- Matt Holliday
yes, mr obvious
out of THE pocket in football, but out of pocket is an old saying that has to do with the cost of something being on you, such as expenses. i don’t think this new meaning has anything to do with football, tbh, without the THE. so i am left wondering – perhaps people started using it thinking it meant something it didn’t?
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
My apologies.
I’m pretty sure in big situations, they’d walk him [Pujols] to get to Babe Ruth.-- Matt Holliday
This is what I could find in a quick search
(3) Unavailable: I first came across this meaning in the early 1980s when I was a staff editor at the New York Times. Reporters who had filed stories were supposed to supply phone numbers where they could be reached in case questions arose. If a reporter was unreachable (say, on a plane to Tibet), he or she was said to be "out of pocket." The OED cites published references for this meaning dating back to 1946, though it didn’t become common until the 1970s.
this one is better
When your 20-something year old hooker is in town and you won’t be going into work for the day because you’ll be busy banging her, put on the calendar that you’re “out of pocket” so that way no one at your work will really know what you’re doing. This works best if you’re a 40+ year old perverted and fugly old man that looks like a penguin.
I will be out of pocket for the rest of the afternoon

I think Miller is probably a better prospect than any of the Mariners received for what it's worth
Not afraid to nitpick
but not better than what they will receive
which works out pretty well for them.
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
Not too sure about that
I don’t really think the Phillies would have dealt him if they thought there was a chance they could hold on to him for half a season and get a better return.
Not afraid to nitpick
not sure why they dealt him to begin with
maybe amaro not too smart? look at the howard contract. m’s can get that catcher from minny, who is a better prospect than miller.

I’m getting tired of the Strasburg for ASG BS. Anyone else?
This is exactly why the ASG should be an exhibition, as it is against ASG tradition to bring in a rookie with only a handfull of starts over a guy who’s got it done all season.

He struck out 7 and got groundballs out the ass
I think I’d be happy if it seemed the Cardinals had a pitcher who was unlucky to give up 2 ER in 5.1 IP.

it was "almost sold out"
and that’s after they slashed ticket prices. but the prices were a joke to begin with, so even the slashed ticket prices they still should have made money off of.
i’m sure they didn’t lose money, but they probably didn’t gain much either. were the cardinals even involved in any of this, or was it all live nation?

This team really saps the life out of ya, huh?
lead off walk. Hooray!
double play…d’oh!
oh well Carp can hit then and go another inning…and the AZ ’pen sucks so …
oh it’s Miles….FFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
yeah that's enough pitches to take him out
that’s the right move. It’s just that I had justified the double play and then came Miles, which reminded me of 2 things:
1. How shitty Ryan’s a-b was
2. How we still have Miles
that's pretty shitty
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
Have no idea what TLR's thought train
looks like when he looks at his bench and decides that Miles is the best option

Taken another step back and caught it flatfooted.

It would have hit the base of the wall
And he definitely was in the right by going for the catch, it was in his glove not just off the tip. He just muffed it.
Not afraid to nitpick
hell of an effort to get there
guess we would’ve been better off with luddy taking it off the wall. a run would’ve scored but maybe not 2.

he had a hit and scored when we needed it
almost made a web gem catch, and hit the ball on the nose last time up but right at the drawn-in shortstop – couple feet either way and it’s a hit and one or two rbi’s. i’d say he had a pretty decent game.

It could be a 4 base error.

I meant to say that it was poor in comparison to other games. Games where the strike zone has been terrible on worse pitches by the 3rd inning..out calls that significantly influenced games, etc.

And he’ll never be the same no matter what. You can’t have your arm explode on a pitch and not have that in your head the rest of your life.

it's a nice bonus though
and i’m saying back in the day oswalt would make the list, but not today, so age matters somewhat because aging has caused his decline, which is present. kershaw, age not a factor, is better than those last five, even though i think gallardo is underrated.

Jaime Garcia is not better than Strasburg
by jd is legend on Jun 29, 2010 12:12 AM EDT up reply actions
probably not objectively, no.
but, based on what has happened so far this season, yes.
"Did you just grow a mustache?"
"While SPINNING."
In that case, Hanson is better too.
But I don’t think just this season is enough to determine something like this.
I’m pretty sure in big situations, they’d walk him [Pujols] to get to Babe Ruth.-- Matt Holliday
Going forward though
I’m coming up with Strasburg in the top 5 and you can make the case that he might be your #1 pick.
Not afraid to nitpick
Jiminez, imho, is better.
In 5 years, maybe Strasburg is best. Maybe he injures himself and is a non-factor in MLB history. Who knows. RIGHT NOW, which is what the SC anchor said, he is not one of the 12 best pitchers in baseball.
I’m pretty sure in big situations, they’d walk him [Pujols] to get to Babe Ruth.-- Matt Holliday
therefore, he should not be at the asg.
zimmerman for the nats.
I’m pretty sure in big situations, they’d walk him [Pujols] to get to Babe Ruth.-- Matt Holliday
??
5 years from now we have no idea how good he’ll be, right now we have a decent idea. I think it’d be crazy to project Garcia, Kershaw, Cain, Hanson or Oswalt as being better going forward.
Not afraid to nitpick
Sorry, by going forward I thought you meant
further in the future than you meant.
I’m pretty sure in big situations, they’d walk him [Pujols] to get to Babe Ruth.-- Matt Holliday
right now, as of today, no yesterday and no tomorrow?
then the SC anchor doesn’t know what he’s talking about. top 12? give me a break. name me 12 pitchers that their team wouldn’t trade for strasburg right now.
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
yes. he's an amazing pitcher so far, and going forward, he will continue to be great.
i just dont think he should be in the ASG
"Did you just grow a mustache?"
"While SPINNING."
I can understand that sentiment, he has had 5 starts so he can't rack up the value to be "worth" it
But if I’m picking a starter for the rest of the season, it just might be him. His fastball is unreal……his curveball is unreal……his changeup might be his best pitch……and he has command.
Not afraid to nitpick
I agree and disagree
Part of me thinks someone who hasn’t even played half of the season so far shouldn’t be in, but the other part of me wants the NL to win and knows that having him pitch in that game would help that cause.
Of course, the NL will inevitably lose because someone like Ryan Doumit will be on the team and be in late in the game and fuck things up.

Totally OT but I found it interesting:
An acquaintance of mine and I were talking about her and her husband’s infertility problems. They both have issues. Anyway, to treat his issues, the doctor put him on HCG, the same hormone some baseball players have tested positive for and used infertility treatments as an excuse. The doctor told them it’s an extremely common treatment.
Regression, bitches.
wow. that's pretty interesting. like maybe some of those players are just trying to be good husbands.

yeah
that’s not what I’m hoping for. weren’t they also scouting haren also? I think the only reason they’d trade Miller is if they think he will be injury prone or something like that

I think Haren was more for scouting for games
and not necessarily for trading. They wanted to scout him for today’s game.

or trying to run up the price of lee to cincy if they are involved
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
It really depends, for me anyway.
I want to see a few more starts from Jaime and/or evaluate Penny if at all possible in order to see if we have a good 3rd starter or not.
But, I am not willing to get rid of Shelby Miller at this juncture for him, and that is probably a deal-breaker at this point. They seem perfectly content to take the draft picks from the Yankees in the offseason (I don’t believe the “Lee will be traded in the next 7-10 days or so” rumor).
Until the White Sox recent resurgence, I would have loved to look at Mark Buehrle, who I think would be great in the NL, and especially good as a Cardinal.
In baseball the object is to go home! And to be safe! "I hope I'll be safe at home!"
-George Carlin (RIP)
if seattle is content to take the picks
maybe we should consider it too. i don’t think they will though. there will be a bidding war, and i think they want major-league ready talent, so that leaves us out. minnesota is my guess, and they will be tough.
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
I would guess Detroit
and they would probably have to deal either Porcello, Sizemore, or Jackson in any deal.
In baseball the object is to go home! And to be safe! "I hope I'll be safe at home!"
-George Carlin (RIP)
they should then
jackson isn’t even their best rookie outfielder. i don’t know sizemore. porcello might be a tough call – not following enough to know what his problem is. i think the minny catcher trumps them all though, and m’s desperate for that position whereas minny not so much.
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
I think that the Twins are philisophically opposed to dealing for rentals
to even attempt getting Lee. They did go for Cabrera last year, but Lee is going to cost a lot more than Cabrera did. Now, they might not need Ramos, but maybe they would rather go for infield depth? Like a SS or a 3b?
Liriano has pitched like an ace this year, while Pavano has been at least a solid #2. If anything, they might acquire a lower key SP target like Guthrie or Bannister.
In baseball the object is to go home! And to be safe! "I hope I'll be safe at home!"
-George Carlin (RIP)
i think they will pick up a third baseman
but nobody that would cost them ramos. more like a wiggington. but i think they realize they have a really good shot at the ws this year, and first year in the park and all, they have so much in the minors, like sano and a couple of’ers, that they wouldn’t miss ramos and would be a legit ws threat with lee and liriano, who is a great 2 but an ok 1. i know normally they wouldn’t do a rental like that, but this year is different, and they could do something special. if they just want to make the playoffs they can do nothing, or pick up a wiggington to be sure, but i believe they go for it all this year, and i think they should.
"Some days I feel like the hypotenuse in a love triangle; others as if my lucky number is pi."
From the Snakepit:
Heilman was tagged with the loss and didn’t allow a hit or a walk, the second pitcher in franchise history to do so (the first being Randy Choate in September 2006).

they just played dumb down the stretch
Heilman should have thrown to first and LaRoche was probably pushing it going to home when the game would’ve been tied….

heilman had an easy out at third
he made the right choice, just a poor throw. and laroche had an out at home, so why let us tie it. he just couldn’t get the ball out of his glove, so yeah, at that point maybe he should have taken the out at first.

apparently the snakepit senses some difficulty in dealing haren
so they have come up with a new marketing strategy:
“It was Haren’s twentieth hit of the year…While going 1-for-4 this evening dropped his batting average to a “mere” .435, his slugging percentage increased to .630 and his OPS to 1.065. Know how many of the 219 NL players with Haren’s 47 PAs or more, have an OPS above 1.065? None at all. Admittedly, this won’t help our chance of trading him to the American League in the slightest. But, people! 1.065 OPS! That’s better than Albert Pujols’ career number. Buy now, while Haren lasts!"
