Maybe he'll get Big Mac's old locker. :lol:

Rincon always seemed like one of those guys that had good numbers but every time I watched he would blow it.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Good for Tony's OCD matchup tendencies, but not so good if he continues to decline against lefties like he did last year.

Definitely (another) step backwards for the Birdinals; Ray King > Rincon.

But Rincon is a mil cheaper than King would have been.. King wasnt all that great either.. and no I'm not saying Rincon is either.. Could do worse though..

 

Sure King would have been OK to keep but we got 3 alright players for King's price.. Not too bad IMO.

 

Rincon may suck but then when he goes out there and pitches a career year... wait.. :lol:

Ray King = 242lbs

Rincon= 190 lbs.

 

Yep. I agree.

This move should save the Cards alot of money. My dad (a Cards fan) swears they gave King a bucket of chicken everytime he pitched a scoreless inning.

Gimme Alex Sanchez. :wink:

I think you mean Juan Rincon unless there's something I don't know about Ricardo. :wink:

Forgive my ignorance. Let's just assume that all Rincons are steroid users now. :lol:

Maybe his hat size will increase like Bonds' did, and he will be able to wear his hat straight.

Our pitching coach Dave Duncan is good at getting a veteran pitcher's mojo back hence I like the signing.

he tells them "see these? these are birds on bats. throw the ball three inches off the corners and they'll be called strikes. now go have a career year."

That posts like that make no sense? That blaming the officials or luck or God for another team winning is kinda sad. Yeah, pretty much.

[Andy]

It's hardly arguable that players once worth very little or nothing seem to tear it up the minute the put on a Cards uniform, but I highly doubt that it has anything to do with the umpires.

Thank you for seeing that.

I can deal with a lot of things, saying that MLB wants the Cards to win is not one of them.

Who are the other 2?? Bigbie maybe if something explains his falling off a cliff last year. But Aaron Miles is no damn good.
