Edwin Jackson moving to the pen for the final 5 games. Jokish will start Friday instead.

 

Also, not surprisingly Casto is still in walking boot. Is done for the year

Javy's tattoo is going to look pretty stupid when he's done as a major leaguer in another season.

 

ok, ok, I apologize.

[Guest]

woot

[Careless]

Cubs are second in homers. Weird.

[gscool89]

Javy is historically bad right now

[UMFan83]

Soler coming back down to earth too

[Clem Fandango]

Jesus, Miller has 7K's in 3 innings? FFS.

 

At least Hendricks is doing what Hendricks does and that's super cool

[TruffleShuffle]

Would be pretty rad if one of Baez, Alcantara and Soler would have a plate appearance that doesn't end in a strikeout.

It took Juan Pierre over 900 PAs to reach 2 HR while playing for the Rockies at the height of the steroid era.

[Schwarber Fan]

Phenomenal display of team speed that inning.

per wiki, he was a failed comedian until he became frank sinatra's lackey and has been coasting off of that for like 35 years now.

The Cardinals announcers are so smarmy and douchey that I can't even come up with words to explain how terrible they are. And McCarver is still friggin' senile.

[ScrubMD]

Pirates won again today, so no matter what, the Cards can't clinch against us. That's something.

[Guest]

Soler rising back into space

Soler rising back into space

 

He just needed a little discouragement
