9/24 - Cardinals (Wainwright) @ Brewers (Bush) - 7:05 CT

[weatherdood]

How in the world has Bush given up 6 hits in 4 innings, and only thrown 51 pitches?

[98navigator]

LaRussa is gonna beat the crap out of Gary Bennett when he gets back to the dugout.

 

Only because Selig told LaRussa that for every run the Cards score this series a dog or cat will be eaten by Jerry Reinsdorf.

 

LOL, I love it

Saint. Louis. Cardinals.

 

At least Bennett has given me a reason to turn this game back on. Come on, Wainwright.

[haltz]

A healthy, Pujols, Rolen, Edmonds, Duncan, and Molina were in the lineup then.

Duncan wasn't on the team in 2004.

 

It wouldn't matter if it was Memphis. It's three baseball games.

 

He was talking about the Cards sweeping the Brew in August.

I'm making an unfunny joke about those dudes being healthy. I know what he's talking about. Well, not in general, but I know what series he meant there.

[chuckywang]

swinging at a 3-0 count? That's a paddlin.

 

Hitting a 2-run homer? That's a paddlin.

 

Beating a contending team when you have nothing to play for? oooh, you better believe that's a paddlin.

[Little Slide Rooter]

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.

 

wrong!

 

this is nothing close to that 'bad team'. get a grip...

 

LOL, you get a grip buddy.

 

The Cards are a very good team whose entire roster is injured, leaving tham with bunch of mediocre players.

LOL, this is so fun.

I get jokes.

lawl gary bennett

[Schwarber Fan]

solid inning for wainwright

[bcruise]

Basically the top of the order for the Cards coming up, with 9 1 2 and Pujols if anyone reaches.

[soccer10k]

2 run shot by Gary Bennett!

 

Did he get benched yet?

[Little Slide Rooter]

Cards are still an Eckstein infield single and a Pujols blast away from tying this one up.

[weatherdood]

We are nowhere near over

[SouthSideRyan]

I think Pujols is maybe 50% right now, asking for a HR from him is a lot.

 

Then again, a 50% Pujols is still pretty damn good.

[haltz]

Luckily Tony was thinking ahead when he ran Taguchi into an out at 2B down by four runs.

[TruffleShuffle]

I think Pujols is maybe 50% right now, asking for a HR from him is a lot.

 

Then again, a 50% Pujols is still pretty damn good.

 

yeah but take the square root since the cards are tanking... it's more like around 7%

[weatherdood]

Way to go, Scrapps

[bcruise]

Fake top of the order does absolutely nothing, leaving Pujols in the on-deck circle.

[Little Slide Rooter]

I think Pujols is maybe 50% right now, asking for a HR from him is a lot.

 

Then again, a 50% Pujols is still pretty damn good.

 

In the shape Pujols is in, a homer is more likely than a base hit. He'll probably be going all or nothing.

[Schwarber Fan]

Errors Errors

[SouthSideRyan]

Pads get Jason Lane.

[inari]

Pads get Jason Lane.

 

Pointless, anyone?

[E.J.]

Pads get Jason Lane.

 

That should make up for the loss of Bradley. :lol:

[bcruise]

E-5, lollipop throw by Ryan airmails Pujols.

 

Doubt TLR's gonna be too happy with that - he got on Ryan publicly a couple weeks ago.
