Nice. Now don't swing at the first pitch, Kouske.
-
Jim Edmonds whistles, walks away slowly. Hurr Jim Edmonds takes it in the..... Oh, wait. We like him now.
-
Well crap.
-
If he can hit his spots with it today, the Cardinals are going to have a very tough time scoring.
-
Eat it, Ryan.
-
Sac fly for DLee. tied at 1. Kouske to 3rd.
-
wow! SS drops the ball in shallow left on a popup. Soriano scampers to third. Kouske got lucky. Should have been taking all the way after a 4-pitch walk.
-
4-pitch walk to Alf. Come on, Fuku!
-
I wish there was the death penalty for being a sleazeball.
-
Duncan k's looking. Decent inning considering how it started. Lets get that run back now!
-
Molina flies to right. Runners hold. 2 down
-
Ludwick looks like a kid I knew in High School who always got swirlies. I'd like to give him a swirly right now for that INF hit. 1-0 Cards.
-
Seems like the unintentional-intentional walk to Albert here.
-
Uh oh....
-
Good play, Derrek. 1 down, runner holds at 3rd.
-
Always nice to give up leadoff triples.
-
Dammit Alf!!
-
Welcome aboard.
-
My gut tells me to watch out for Molina today. I have no idea why I feel this way. Just a gut feeling.
-
Gonna be a tiny game thread today, methinks.

CHICAGO CUBS BASEBALL IS ON THE AIR!!!

They're stingy because they've been terrible for the better part of the last 60 years. Who's # do you think should have been retired? (post WWII guys only, they're not going to retire the # for a guy who's can't be there to watch it.) Who are the biggest snubs right now? Hartnett, Cavaretta, Hack, Grace, and Reuschel? Other than Hartnett(who never kept up a # for more than 4 years, and didn't have one for half his career) who's being snubbed? Stan Hack was a great Cub and probably a top 20 3B of all time, but I wouldn't say it's a crime that his number isn't retired. Cavaretta is much the same story. Both put up their best numbers during WWII as well, which kinda puts a damper on things. Grace? Pass. Reuschel doesn't really have an argument, but I felt the need to put some pitcher on the list. These guys are all fine to put their banner up on the councourse, recognize them as great Cubs, but they're not retired # good. You forgot Sammy. His number should be retired before any of those others you mentioned.

Me likee. Not terrible, but it should be Soriano Theriot Fukudome Aram Soto Lee Hoff Font Marshall

"Carpenter exits after three innings"
erik316wttn replied to Cynosure's topic in General Baseball Talk
8 weeks would bring us to mid-June. Then there would presumably be a couple weeks in the minors warming back up, which means July. Could be post All Star break before he's back in the majors then. He was good for me in the 2 starts I had him in my fantasy leagues. Oh well. Good for us I guess that the Cardinals don't have a superior pitcher. -
For what it's worth, WSCR reported that he was scratched today, too.
