well, edmonds is batting right now so I don't think he's lost for the season.

[Little Slide Rooter]

I meant Rolen. I always confuse those 2.

Edmonds isn't that big.

 

 

Duncan has been a black hole offensively for going on a month.

[BigbadB]

Edmonds isn't that big.

 

And Rolen hasn't exactly been a power hitter this year.

[Mephistopheles]

as long as pujols sends my fantasy team to the top, ill be content with these losses.

 

somehow im up 8-1 after the Bush debacle last time out.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

...Duncan is now done for the season. He's got a hernia or something. This is per Bernie of the Post-Dispatch.

 

Unbelievable!

Welcome to the magical Ludwick-Edmonds-Ankiel OF

 

They'll all bat .350 the rest of the way

[E.J.]

Now if we could just get something to take out Braun and Fielder we might be all set.

[seanimal]

If only our team could attempt something that passes for professional baseball this would be a non-issue.

[Derwood]

every time a cardinal hitter goes down, Ankiel absorbs their hitting prowess to become stronger (a la Highlander).

 

there can be only one

Plus they mention twice the LaRussa may leave after this season as a change of scenery.

The same franchise, whose fans laughed at Cubs fans everywhere about Wood and Prior, now feel bad for themselves. Karma.

why do you think ankiel is slumping so badly?

 

(a) has poor plate discipline and pitchers have figured out they can get him out by throwing pitches out of the strike zone

(b) everyone knows he's a fraud now, and it's gotten in his head

I think he struggles with the limelight. He was getting it when he imploded on the mound, then he was doing well as a hitter and his name gets mentioned in links to HGH. I think he just imploded again. Hopefully he does it all weekend against us.

So I see Mr. Spezio has been activated for tonight's game. Well, I have to ask the question to Cardinal fans (basically to piss them off. After all, what's a rivalry for?), why have many players over the years had so much trouble remaining sober/ off illegal drugs while playing in St. Louis? Let's see.... Darrell Porter, Lonnie Smith, Keith Hernandez, David Green, Scott Spezio, Garry Templeton (strongly suspected but never proven)......
