Duncan
has obviously fallen way down TLRs list...
Maybe he'll draw a walk

to get another at bat tonight.. I hope TLR puts him in the OF.. even though i know he prolly wont

I like Duncan with no one on. Btw how much is Gillette paying him to keep not shaving. Great Advertisment.
Also... Anybody else think like skoal has a great deal with the Memphis Red Birds. I mean all the Rooks come in with a huge Wad of chew.

I think it should go
Flores to Tucker, Reyes, then bring Kinney in to get Lo Duca.

In the eighth, you go to Ty Johnson, then if he can get the two toughest outs in the lineup, you go to Wainwright.

I have a feeling that Rolen
hits a HR this inning.  He is seeing the ball well, getting good hacks and I can see him jumping on a hanging breaking ball.

Just read on Bernies that 2009 ASG in STL
most likely.

"ST. LOUIS (AP) -- The new Busch Stadium is the leading contender to host baseball's All-Star game in 2009.

Baseball commissioner Bud Selig, speaking during Game 5 of the NL championship series on Tuesday night, was asked about the likelihood of the All-Star game being played in St. Louis in three years.

"I'd say very, very good," Selig said. "I like their chances a lot."

The new Busch Stadium opened in April, across the street from the old Busch, which hosted the All-Star game in 1966.

The 2007 game is scheduled for July 10 in San Francisco and the 2008 event is likely to be played at New York's Yankee Stadium,"

Just wondering. . .
If we have two Midwest teams in the Series, does that mean all of the games will be in the early afternoon since there won't be any "eastern market" to play to?
