BATTING IN THE FIRST INNING

Here’s to the crazy ones. The rebels. The troublemakers. The ones who see things differently. While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

don't know why the DC thing
but the south and west thing has to do with them being the southernmost and westernmost team until the dodgers and giants moved to california in the 50’s… the kmox reaching 48 states thing helps which could also explain the DC thing but I’m not sure

Shamelessly stolen from Facebook.
Twas the night before the World Series, and throughout Cardinal Nation,
fans dreamt of ball bats and standing ovations.
Jerseys were hung in the lockers with care. This year’s Fall Classic,
soon, would be there.
Nyjer Morgan was restless and rolling in bed, grudgingly eating the
words he had said.
Carp slept in his cleats, and Freese in his cap,
while some players struggled even to nap.
The Phils had the pitching, the Brewers, the batters,
but as of that night, none of that mattered.
The Redbirds gave them a run for their cash,
and took them each out like a week’s worth of trash.
Fans felt some guilt, for two months ago,
they took their towels and gave them a throw.
“The Cardinals are finished and I have great fear;
we may have squandered Albert’s last year.”
But the Players not once believed they’d been licked.
They made up some ground and made it up quick.
With heart and resilience, the comeback came.
The season hinged on its very last game.
So Albert, and Lance, Allen and Jay,
and all of the Cards (except Holliday),
delivered a win in game 162,
then waited to see what Atlanta would do.
Their collapse was completed on that very same night.
While booze filled the air, Redbirds cheered, “Happy Flight!”
Most fans regret their early surrender,
but this is a lesson they’d surely remember.
One test remained; a club called the Rangers.
To World Series baseball, they were no strangers.
Nor were the Redbirds, with history so great.
Last rings in ’06, not 1908.
So with hearts full of hope Card Nations slumbered.
Hopes to reach four, the new Magic Number.
Twas a perfect year to get number 11,
and bring home the trophy to MLB Heaven.
Go Cards!

go look at his wRC+ for those years
he wasn’t as bad as you think. Seattle is death to power hitters. he was hardly fantastic, for sure.
Here’s to the crazy ones. The rebels. The troublemakers. The ones who see things differently. While some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.
kinda my point
the contract he got didnt turn out the way they planned and big sexy either
they both kd a lot
because TLR
here
Beltré was signed by the Seattle Mariners as a free agent before the 2005 season to a five-year, $64 million deal. Regressing to his pre-2004 form, he batted just .255 with 19 home runs and 87 RBI.
that was year one..his best yr wasnt bad at all..but i do believe he k’d a ton
because TLR
He wasn't paid like an MVP candidate, that's kind of the point
He was paid like a 3 WAR player. Which he was.
Not afraid to nitpick
not into all that stuff
just saying i lived upo here during that time and i cant think they were happy with him or the money the spent on Sexton…but i could be really wrong
because TLR
Sexton.......no
But Beltre got unfairly lumped in. If people were expecting MVP performance from a guy who only had one MVP season, wasn’t paid like an MVP and performed up to his contract……not sure what that says about Mariners fans.
Not afraid to nitpick
i see what yer saying,
they had alot if i remebered saddled on those two guys.
even at the time he signed it it seemed high for a guy who had been up and down..
check out his wiki page i guess he didnt K as much as i thought
because TLR
remember when he hit 48 HR in 2004
and has only reached 30 once since then?…yeah

I can hhonestly say I dislike the rally towel. While it looks cool on tv, people aren’t nearly as loud when the have one in their hand and it ruins the atmosphere. It is also hugely distracting. A guy in front of me had his vuvuzeula taken from him, but I don’t think sound is nearly as distracting as towel waving.

there are also a couple green triangles inside the strike zone
not saying he’s biased, but Marquez isn’t having a good night

no, inside the regular strike zone
upper right hand corner and lower left. The one in the lower left is almost covered by a red triangle.
"Baseball is like Church, many attend, few understand" - Wes Westrum
No I know
Those are borderline pitches, the ump doesn’t have the ability to differentiate the 3 pixels that separate the “usual” zone from the “called”. I believe that’s the zone at which >70% or something of pitches are called strikes, that still leaves 30% that are called balls right on the edge.
Not afraid to nitpick
I'm talking about these
the strikes he’s missed. This is the standard zone.
