I kinda wish Miles was starting at 2B and leading off

If we’re gonna piss on winning a game, might as well get him some ABs to drag down his season line so no one is tempted to bring him back next year.

So, my wedding was amazing and my honeymon was at the excellence in Punta Cana which truly was paradise. Apparently if you tell locals in the Dominican Republic that you are from St. Louis the immediate universal response is “Albert Pujols!” it’s nice to come home and see the Cardinals play though

Also, why the hell are we several games out and playing Matt Pagnozzi?

I haven't been able to watch as many games this season

so I didn’t notice that was the pattern—but now that I think about it, that seems pretty close. I would be disappointed if it were that simple. But I swear I’ve seen him on the road recently with his socks up.

I have noticed that he doesn’t wear them up unless he starts. If he pinch-hits (yeah right) or comes in as a defensive replacement, they stay down. This seems to happen whether at home or away.

We only saw him throw 2 innings on Saturday, in relief, but he K’d 4 batters. If he can keep getting batters to drive the ball into the ground and lower his walk rate a bit, he could be a very nice pitcher.

His strikeout rate (84 K’s in 63 innings compared with 56 in 41 1/3 innings in the first half) went up while his walk rate (18 walks in 63 innings vs. 15 in 41 1/3) went down.

Oh god forbid we go a game without seeing Miles.

I swear, I don’t know which is worse. Tuning in late to find we’re down 8-1, or seeing that little gooddamed leprechaun in the game.

I am just so fucking tired of caring about this team….

This game has made me quit

It’s quite clear the decision makers in the organization don’t give a fuck or are too stupid to evaluate basics concepts of Major League talent.

….national audience got to see Miles in ninth with his little Keebler swing. That’s our bench.

He hit a 30 footer for strike 2, but just barely wasn’t able to keep it fair.

the good news: cincinnati is losing even worse than we did

the bad news (as if you guys haven’t heard this already): the cardinals suck. for the first time in several years, I am looking forward to a rams game more than a cardinals game. I really, really, really hope Mr. La Russa does not come back next year. We are way better off with a sane person who won’t play aaron miles.

I'm not trolling, just being sarcastic.

Miles shuts the door

better than Franklin. It’s not his fault, though. It’s the idiots who put him on the team.

by jackclark on Sep 8, 2010 10:44 PM EDT reply actions  

I don't know.

In K.C., I yelled at Miles while he stood at second base (occasionally taking a step and falling down in either direction as routine grounders found their way past him to the outfield) and begged him to retire. He gave no response.

Maybe the Cards will finish with a losing record.

Would that be enough for TLR to retire?

too late - he retired after the Reds' sweep . . . and took the heart of the team with him

2?, isn't that twice as much as 1?

by sportsman on Sep 8, 2010 10:55 PM EDT up reply actions  

yes

true, 1 times two is twice as much true;and 2 times THAT is twice twice – is THAT true?
Oh, shit , that’s four, or more than I knew. It’s four, it’s four, I’m getting stuck on like glue.
 Well, if two is twice one and twice one is two, then who am I fooling – surely not you.
And if twice one twice is then four -wait there’ is more, then who am I fooling? Who?

molina's apparently a homo

According to one milwaukee fan who decided to get hammered and talk shit just because he could. This being the same fan who ws thrown out of the last brewers’/cards’ game. The guy is 44 years old and said he and Yadi were “talking” to eachother back and forth throughout most of the contest until the ump decided Yadi had enough because he was afraid Molina was gonna luggage chuck the fan. Yadi had no comment after the game, but the bush-league fan said, “I thought he’d have thicker skin” while he sat in handcuffs facing a drunk-and-disorderly charge. I knew I hated the brewers for a reason other than fielder/braun
