4/20 Cards (Looper) vs. Cubs (Lilly), 1:20, CSN & XM-187

[abuck1220]

Why is Ward PHing when we've got guys like Barrett, Murton, and Pie on the bench still?

 

Murton sucks, Barrett has to stay on the bench in case Blanco is hurt and Pie needs to possibly pinch run later...

 

false, false, false.

[C.C.]

That inning was just embarrasing.

Considering the players who stepped in during the inning, I'd say it was a moral victory.

 

Can we really be this bad to lose games like this over and over again? I mean don't we eventually have to win one of these?

[cheapseats]

Ward sucks...he has no positional value in the field and his stick is declining, why is he on this team.

 

Yeah, but he's proven. Lou Piniella must really hate Murton and Pie.

 

Coming into Chicago, he had a reputation for playing vets over young players. FWIW.

[Schwarber Fan]

Baseball sucks. The damn Cardinals run out a piece of crap middle reliever and he's gonna win 15 games for them. After winning the World Series with a team that won 83 games. Yet every good pitcher we have has their arm fall off.

 

STL could have a rotation of:

 

Rick Ankiel

Ronald McDonald

Jose Macias

Fausto Carmona

Danny Graves

 

and they'd all win at least 15 games...

[Bergy92]

Is lilly the new Wood?

 

He'll painfully understand the existence of pitching balls out and getting zero run support.

 

nope - he is not on the DL

[Butterscup1679666578]

That ball kept carrying...

[swordsman]

HAHAHAHA

 

Hilariously bad.

 

We're going to be 0-7 in two-run games

 

STL will add another run??

 

Cubs are 0-6 in games decided by 2 runs or less.

 

So you are saying were due?

 

WOO HOO!!!

 

Cubs win. Andy guarantees it!

[Andy]

How the hell did Looper become a pitching God?

Today has more to do with the Cubs than Looper in that regard.

 

This is ridiculous.

With a nothing offense. WHy couldn't Pujols have beat us? Then you go oh well. Nope it had to be Preston Wilson.

[Allroy]

How can we still be this bad? How? How? How? It feels just like last year.

Move along! Nothin' to see here!

 

that's going to be my new sig.

Does he not play Theriot quite a bit?

[98navigator]

Eckstein doubles past Ram

[wekse]

oh lord

[Butterscup1679666578]

Here comes a big inning.

[Flames24Rulz]

I hate that little piece of crap.

[Brian]

an eckstein double, the game is almost complete of all the crap it can handle

[badger1679666666]

Is lilly the new Wood?

nope - he is not on the DL

 

Neither was Wood when he was pitching lights out but still getting loses and ND.

I had heard about that, but I didn't want to get into a fight with some kneepad-wearing Piniella fan.

[illiniguy]

I hate that little piece of crap.

If I ever run into him I am gonna knock him on his butt.

false, false, false.

 

1. I am exaggerating about Murton, but he hasn't looked sharp this year

2. Barrett is getting a day off and won't be used until it's necessary

3. I don't wanna see Floyd get thrown out at the plate to end the game

 

True, True, True

[jjgman21]

third pitch to Eckstein called a strike four times against the Cubs today, called a ball twice to him.

 

offense has been sad guys, but this subtle ball/strike BS that's been so prevalent over the beginning of this season is killing us.

[98navigator]

Duncan lines out to RF

 

whew

I love how people are judging Murton on just a few ABs. And I also love how people are already clamoring for Pie to become a PR guy only already.
