  1. Jesus Soriano take a flipping pitch once in a while.
  2. How many guys have to die for Murton to get an Ab?
  3. What parallel universe are you living in? The one I want to be in? The one where freakin' Looper is a staff ace! Where Brendan Ryan hits .340 and Rick Ankiel hits .350 with a lot of power. Cardinal Nation.
  4. awesome, hahaha. Sorry Jake, but your team is in good hands there.
  5. i think its half joking, but both definitely are large bodied hitters, and if its okay to accuse Sosa with no evidence why not return the favor Really. No evidence? None whatsoever. Ok. In 1997, over the course of 642 at-bats, he hit 36 HR's. In 1998, over the course of 643 at-bats, he hit 66 HR's. So, in one year, Sammy Sosa increased his HR total by 83%. This is not natural. I'm a Sosa homer as much as the next guy but, face the facts. What were his obps for those two seasons? Could the fact he swang at less garbage have added to the jump?
  6. Hell even with 0 outs we do have the habit of finding ways to only get 1 or less runs.
  7. Brewers take the lead right back. We should pry try and win today.
  8. Earn your paycheck for once today Cliff.
  9. Why it is the same hitters who did the same thing with Sare Matthews. They need to retool the lineup. Not everyone needs to be a hacker.
  10. i think its half joking, but both definitely are large bodied hitters, and if its okay to accuse Sosa with no evidence why not return the favor I think there is a pretty big difference in these 2 then Sosa. These guys are both the same size now as when they came in the league, and there has been no large jump in power numbers. Sosa got much larger as his career went on then came back much smaller after a year off. He also had a huge power spike. That is not to say that Sosa did steroids, cause there has never really been anyone come out and say that he did. But all those things raise more eyebrows then anything Pujols or Fielder. I have neevr once accused Fielder of being on the juice. Not once. Sorry if it offends you to think that a kid McGwire took under his wing would possibly have taken steroids.
  11. The cardinals are gonna win today on a shut out by Braden Looper and a homer by Rick Ankiel. Quick someone tell me again how they aren't lucky.
  12. We didn't need Beltran though we had Corey Patterson.
  13. Soriano is terrible in the outfield, just terrible.
  14. Pirates have the bases loaded. With two outs.
  15. Even if he didn't I know the Stros aren't the team to complain.
  16. sigh, nice job not taking that walk Jacque.
  17. yet two happened today without him even touching the ball. maybe we need to make the pickoff move to second when theres a runner on first It just might work.
