This isn't totally true. We had Steve klein wishing Prior tak a line drive to the head. These guys care more than you think.

 

Got anything relevant to the current team? Like that rant So Taguchi went on last week?

Hey, remember those 3 games that the Braves weren't trying in, but no wait nevermind they took the lead, so now they're trying.

 

YOU CAN LOSE A GAME AND STILL BE TRYING IN FACT IT'S USUALLY WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU'RE A DOGBLEEP TEAM LIKE THE CARDINALS.

 

Good thing they tried so hard against us when we took 4 out of 5 against them.

 

Nah, they were trying that time, we're just an unstoppable force and could beat even the mighty Cardinals when they tried.

 

This isn't about their team, this is about a pitcher who has been pretty good all year looking like crap . I could still see the Brewers finding a way to lose this game.

 

Remember when Oswalt threw that game against us in July? I guess it's even now.

 

Cause good pitchers pitching poorly = THROWING THE GAME

 

That's hardly the same thing. The Astros and the Cubs aren't long-time rivals and Oswalt loves beating the Cubs (especially since he and Barrett got into it).

 

There is definitely added intensity, they are playing a divisional game with playoff implications it's not like they are playing the Nationals. This is, largely, the same Cardinals team that swept the Brewers the last time they played them.

Good mic they have out by that outfield wall.

 

Weeks rocketed one off the wall and it sounded like a gunshot.

So is the Brewer's board complaining about Pujols being healthy enough to start this game?

 

Not but they're making fun of us for saying LaRussa, Wainwright, and the mayor of St. Louis are involved in a conspiracy to lose to the Brewers. With good reason.

LMAO, many people over there said the Pirates laid down for the Cubs which obviously wasn't the case because they tried to juggle their rotation to win the series.

That was your reasoning behind the Cards throwing it. One of their pitchers who is good is doing poorly. I'm pointing out that just maybe there could be some other reason, like the fact that pitchers much better than Wainwright could have bad games, even against offenses not as good as Milwaukee's. But yeah, he's probably just costing himself money by giving up runs on purpose to give a team with a mathematical 3% chance of overtaking the Cubs that extra 2% chance. Definitely worth it to him.

Easy sweep for the Brewers... lets do our job in Florida

 

That's the thing. Just take care of Florida, everything else will take care of themselves.

My comments were exclusive to the Cardinals and to this situation. There would be no motivation for another pitcher or team playing in a normal regular season game. This one game isn't going to cost Wainwright one dime.

 

We'll have to agree to disagree.

Well, "Chuck" wasn't bad, I'll probably give it another shot next week.

 

98, do you agree that the Cards are a bad team? What would it take from them to convince you that they are in fact trying?

They are a horrible team but they've battled intra divisional teams. I'm suspicious. Again, this same bad team swept the Brewers the last time they faced them.

Game isn't over yet people. Relax. Bush and the pen will give up runs.

 

The Cardinals have what, two real hitters in that lineup? I doubt they'll put up 5 in this game.

 

They scored 4 last night off of Oswalt/Quade/Lidge

 

They had 20 hits on Saturday.

 

This was all without Pujols in the lineup.
