Maybe they aren't as atrocious as we thought?

Also 5-1 against Milwaukee and 4-9 against the rest of the league. Not sure if that means anything (it probably doesnt)

Some of us never did buy into the season as a disaster story.

It would be

 

72 RS

if you also removed our best game (today). Still pretty good, of course, just evening it out.

True, and if we going to remove anomalies, we could take out some of the bullpen implosions that likely will not be happening so often as the season progresses. And the picture improves a bit more.

 

I never bought into the season is a disaster view either. My reaction was that Lou, the rest of the coaching staff and Hendry had a lot of work to do. Hendry has yet to make any moves, but Lou's been rather pro-active and Rudy seems to be impacting some of the hitters. There's hope to be had on the northside still.

But then we wouldn't be doing our jobs. Our job is to go crazy after every loss and blame Hendry, Lou, Z, Soriano, etc. and to predict a World series after every win.

The Cardinals pitching has been amazing so far. If they ever start to hit they are going to be pretty tough to hang with, imo.

Fixed.

Oh I agree with that as well. But, I doubt that Silva and Gorzo can keep this up.

[Sammy Sofa]

I doubt Carpenter can stay healthy. And that the rest of their rotation outside of Wainwright can be so dominant. The Cubs basically need 1 of Silva and Gorz to be a 5th starter since 1 can always be replaced by Zambrano.

True, I do think Penny is gonna go all Joel Piniero though. I think we will have a better idea of what our team has after this week. I hope the offense can keep hitting.

Oh I thought our job was to make ridiculous 14 team trade proposals every day
