Opening Day! - Other thread

[Keener98]

Carpenter starting to fall apart.

 

No no no, that doesnt happen to Chris Carpenter. Hes a different breed of pitcher who after giving up a HR, tends to get even more fierce and competiive and shut the other teams down. Other pitchers fall apart, but not Chris [expletive] Carpenter, Hrabosky said so damnit.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

New year and same old Aaron Harang.

Which I don't get how they can be anyone's dark horse. Aaron Harrang is their opening day starter.

 

They also have some lefty in AA who was mediocre in the Cuban league last year.

I fully expect Mike Leake to require labrum surgery by the end of the season.

Bah. Must be opening day. I thought that was gone when he hit it.

[Sammy Sofa]

Juan Pierre as a corner OFer will never not be hysterical.

[SouthSideRyan]

Isn't Kotsay's only value his defense?(Or did that fade?) Why is he DHing and hitting 5th?

[Banedon]

Not to get on a video game tangent, but I was playing the 2k10 demo this morning, and hit a fly ball...as soon as it was hit, I heard someone in the crowd yell "It's gone"....it was caught well short of the warning track.

So does anyone else have the MLB text updates? How often do they update the score for you? I just signed up so I could get updates while I'm not home today.

"If they had some lesser pitcher out there, they'd just say put him on, but hes(Carp) too good". Im so glad that Brenly and Kasper aren't homer douchebags like the Stl announcers. The arrogance just bleeds through the TV

[Roast]

Awesome. A commercial fellating Pujols.

[CubbieBum]

Haha. You just reminded me of the best part about watching baseball with Andy. Anything and everything that is hit out of the infield in the air he thinks is a homerun and will oooo and ahhh only to have it be caught 50 feet before the warning track.

Being there live for most every (home) game the last couple years has really improved my ability to judge how well balls are hit. But yeah, I'm out of practice. I thought that was gone.

Somehow a post that I made while in the embedded video thread got made here.

Did that eve hit him?

[David]

Pujols deserves all the fellatio he gets.

I must have done that half-a-dozen times during the Red Sox-Yankees game yesterday. Every year.

Garrett Jones again

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Wild pickoff throw to first scores a runner from third with 2 outs.

 

I know I'm supposed to be rooting against the Cardinals, but I do hate me some Reds. This is funny.

[Keener98]

Aaron Harang is a moron

[ELCABALLO45]

Ian Stewart just destroyed a ball, wow.

[Outshined_One]

Nice job nearly turning that into a triple, Pierre.

[Cubswin11]

Ian Stewart just destroyed a ball, wow.

Yeah that was blasted, almost as far as Jones' first one today.

[Roast]

Mark Grudzilanek just got a hit. I seriously didn't know he was still in baseball.

[illiniguy]

Ian Stewart just destroyed a ball, wow.

The Rockies are sexy.

Garrett Jones again

 

Never really looked at his stats. But he looks primed to be a star. OPSed over .938 last year and hit 21 HR's in just 314 at-bats. Given a 550 at-bat season he would have hit .293 with .375 OBP, 37 HR's, 77 RBIs, 79 runs and 18 SB's.
