  1. That is pretty lame, but in fairness to him, he was what? 21 at the time?
  2. Rolen? Other than his omission, I agree completely. Our bullpen needs somebody to come out of the woodwork too.
  3. I don't know. Tony Womack - '03: 349 at bats, .226/.251/.307. OPS+ 40. '04 with Cards: 553 at bats, .307/.349/.385. OPS+ 93 (career high). '05 Yankees: 329 at bats, .249/.276/.280. OPS+ 47. Nunez - '04: 182 at bats, .236/.275/.319. OPS+ 56. '05 with Cards: 421 at bats, .285/.343/.361. OPS+ 84 (career high). '06: 322 at bats, .211/.303/.273. OPS + 48. John Mabry's 4 best seasons were as a Cardinal, his best after being cut by the Mariners at age 34. Al Reyes, Kiko Calero and Josh Kinney all came out of relatively nowhere to have great years as key set up men. Fernando Tatis had ops+'s of 118, 140 and 118 for the Cardinals and then disappeared. Kent Bottenfield was a career swing man who won 18 games with an era+ of 115 as a starter in '99. Of course the most obvious example of Cardinals luck is Chris Carpenter.
  4. There's a doctor on the Card's medical staff with the last name of Patella? I wonder if he works closely with the team's strength coach, Gary Barbell. It's actually Paletta.
  5. HYPERVENTILATING http://www.molesworthgallery.com/images/Redmond/Redmond%20for%20web%202006/Redmond%20web%202006/images/Brown%20paper%20bag%201.3.jpg
  6. Tough year for the 'Stros. those are professional journalists and we're just armchair gms. you have a point. Almost as good as when one of their sports staff said Shawn Estes would win a Cy Young for the D-Backs because he won 15 games in Colorado the year before.
  7. Giving up a bomb to Pujols pitchers can live with, giving up a home run to Scott Podsednik they cannot. I would've called it a career after that.
  8. I don't buy the Albert Pujols ruined him argument. I think Garner overused him horribly in '04 and '05 and this is the consequence.
  9. Yikes, powder blue throwback tattoo...
  10. Seriously, how uncool would it be if everytime Carpenter has a good start I come back and bump this thread? 30 or so bumps would be annoying, trolling and wouldn't contribute anything of value to the board. Much like your post which was... dumb.
  11. Interesting stat from Tim Kurkjian: Of all pitchers who have averaged a k per inning for more than 500 innings, Ben Sheets has the fewest walks.
  12. Ervin Santana + blue chip prospect + mid level prospect? You just want him out of the division because of how well he tends to pitch against the Cardinals It's not going to happen, but a boy can dream.
  13. Ervin Santana + blue chip prospect + mid level prospect?
  14. He will hit 3 on the final day of the season to overtake Bonds... by 10. He'll break the record somewhere around game 148.
  15. No, no, no...He is right. Carpenter is definitely going to suck this bad for the rest of the season. Yeah, b/c that's what I said. Careful who you call dumb when your reading comprehension needs some serious improvement. I hope you enjoyed last night's game as much as I did. Cheers. Dumb. No, no, no...He is right. Carpenter is definitely going to suck this bad for the rest of the season. He just didn't look right. ESPN's gun had him at Prior/Miller velocity for the portions of the game I could stomach. I didn't pay that close attention but I could have sworn I saw 92/93. Maybe I just saw some slower fb's. I couldn't stand Joe for very long. There were a lot of sliders that Joe for some reason called fastballs. He was around 91-93 and topped out at 95 from what I saw. He clearly didn't have it though.
  16. Isn't the game going to be televised on WGN also? I would assume ESPN because of the opener. Pesimistic side of me. Maybe it is on WGN. Didn't check. You Cubs fans and your laziness. Yes it is on WGN
  17. No, no, no...He is right. Carpenter is definitely going to suck this bad for the rest of the season.
  18. Fun spring time poll, or rigged poll? Their laissez faire attitude toward corruption in a media source is irresponsible and frankly a little bit disturbing.
  19. I don't read your posts, yet I enjoy looking at the picture of the girl. Just had to get that out. Thanks I guess. Glad to know you don't read what I type.
  20. Sounds good. Four left. Go ahead and give me one. Whichever. You get the Seahwaks. I don't know who they are, but why not? I hate the Shehawks but I'll do my best.
  21. Z and Lilly aren't all about the CG's historically, so I'll go Rich Hill.
  22. Sounds good. Four left. Go ahead and give me one. Whichever.
  23. None of that is true.
