Lopez has looked pretty questionable on throws to first this series.
by Ferociousaurus on Aug 11, 2010 2:11 PM EDT up reply actions
I'm not saying we should bench him or that we have a better option.
But, you know, he could take a little infield and work on not killing Albert every time there’s a routine grounder to third.

that's why I wish he could play at second
his bad throws would be limited there

6TH Inning was some good ass baseball
Jay keeps the inning alive, even with two outs.
Pujols induces a walk through sheer force of intimidation
Holliday takes the damn walk
Rasmus works the count after getting behind 0-2, sticks with each pitch, protects the plate, and, with a full count, takes strike three yard.
And that, my friends IS HOW ITS DONE.
So says, Titus Pullo (formerly The Dude)
Waino pitch count please?

http://www.redreporter.com/2010/8/11/1618039/game-115-thread-3-wait-this-is#44170168
Full disclosure: I did participate in two threads at RR, starting with a comment HERE and then responding to questions and comments. I think what I said was reasonable, and I stand by it.
While I kind of understand the comparisons to Rockies fans (not) coming over here to gloat, I think the situation is very different given the tone of Phillips’ comments and the fact that very the writer who broke the news at RR went on record as agreeing with and adding to it. I found their writers/mods – including the one that thanked PJ here and flew off the rails on him over there – to be tolerant of and personally belligerent, well out of accordance with their own site’s stated terms of service.
All that being said, however, I have no personal plans to return there.

The Cardinals need to hire a baserunning coach. Hello, Larry Walker.
I've been thinking.
The Central besides the Cardinals and Reds is awful. Is there a chance that the Reds have just gotten pretty lucky in a few high profile series and then beat up on the crappy teams in the division? Are we really this much better than them? I think it’s possible, even probable.
who am i to argue with a ferociousaurus?

this is an interesting question...i'm curious.
CGSO* ?
"Did you just grow a mustache?"
"While SPINNING."
Brad Thompson got a CG for 5 innings a couple years ago
so yes you do get a CG if you pitch every inning of a game
"Come test me every day if you want," says Pujols, "Everything I ever made in this game I would give back to the Cardinals if I got caught."
i don't think so -- they revised the definition of a no-hitter and perfect game a few years ago.
that “wiped away” several of the no-hitters and perfect games that were 7, 8 innings.

yeah
The Cardinals face an approaching surplus of starting pitching, though La Russa said Brad Penny had again cut back his throwing program due to concerns about upper back muscles supporting his shoulder.
“He took the weekend off. I just think he’s really concerned that he feels better,” said La Russa, who refrained from describing Penny’s return to a mound last week as “a serious bullpen” session.
Though Penny has missed almost three months, La Russa wouldn’t rule out his return this season and said a relief role could be considered.

i was just thinking if Johnson has a better ERA, Waino needs to kill him in IP. I don’t think Johnson has any CGSOs this year. Also, if Halladay’s ERA is only a little higher, he has all those IP to support his case, so Waino needs to up his IP to stay close.

This series reminds me of one where we went to Wrigley
for five games (I don’t remember for sure, but I think one of them must have been a makeup game – I can’t remember a regularly scheduled five game series) late in the 2003 season. We were in first at the start, but the Cubs took four of five and we ended the series in third behind Chicago and Houston. Rolen made a comment about the series along the lines of “They shoved us and we didn’t shove back.” It’s funner being on the other side of these “statement” series.
by BTown Birds fan on Aug 11, 2010 4:18 PM EDT reply actions
I know exactly what series you're talking about
I was running errands, but I’d only run into stores during commercials on WGN radio. And my damn Cubs friends kept texting me.

this is far more than I’d hoped for. The team may have found a little oomph.

Does Steven Hill get a start vs. the Cubs?
An article on the cards site says the only reason Hill is up over Anderson is because Anderson was all the way in Nevada and they needed Hill in case of emergency today.
It seems like Yadi is way overdue for a day off, although we do have 2 off days in between the next 2 series so maybe not. If Molina sits a game, is it Hill or Anderson starting?
