    I was only half listening and assumed he was talking about the rotations.

    Same here.

    Are you really that big of a dope?

    I especially enjoyed the part where they compared the statistics from last year between Lester and Chris Heston and came to the conclusion that Heston was better somehow. :-k

    You wouldn't be surprised if a starting pitcher started three games in six days? Math really is hard. Started yesterday (day 1), maybe start Saturday on 2 days rest (days 2-4), then start on regular rest in game 5 (days 5-9).

    Any thoughts that all the high fastballs were to exploit a particular weakness in the Mets' hitters? I have a feeling there would be a pretty different approach against the Cubs.

    Any idea why I'm getting Philadelphia Detroit in STL? Seems pretty random.

    Why do the Cardinals get four outs in the ninth?

    Jerko just hit a go ahead HR on a pitch that was at least 3" outside. The pitcher, Rivero, gave him a golf clap as he rounded the bases it was so dumb.

    +13, they shouldn't be contending Yeah, he's not wrong. They've Cardinal'ed their way to the playoffs.

    If you're looking for cheap, I'd go with the Elk Grove area and take the blue line to the red or a bus to get down to Wrigley.

    Pretty good? [tweet] [/tweet]

    Not shocked. He's a clumsy homer idiot. Grew up in STL, went to Mizzou and was in Denver for a while before being brought back home to replace Miklasz. He's so not even close to objective and an enormous dork who thinks he's much funnier than he is on top of it.

    So, the Eagles are good?
  17. mul21
    Jesus, they're so good defensively.

    My guess is it may be difficult to control and be effective just dialing it up 1-3 times a game, and the increased risk of doing so at all is not worth the incremental gain of using it 1-3 times. Or at least that is how he and his people view the risk. Exactly, it's the reps in side sessions and working on mechanics that makes the pitch consistent. If you're concerned with injury, you're not going to dial it up in side sessions or games throughout the season and perhaps that's been happening more frequently of late to get dialed up for the postseason. Really though, who knows?

    He's struggled a bit with it recently, but nothing I'm worried about. He had one game in particular where he made 3 bad throws and got bailed out on at least one of them by Rizzo.

    Ha! Zobrist rode his bike to the park in full uniform today? That's amazing!

    I keep seeing them compare 2006 and 2011 to this year. The reasonable people I talk to down here know that those were both a perfect storm of getting healthy and hot at the right time and have zero expectation of that happening again. The mouth breathers definitely are using that.
  22. mul21
    The general resignation to their fate down here is glorious. Almost always followed by "Hey, if this is our down year, we're still doing pretty well". No acknowledgement that the Cubs are now their overlords.
  23. mul21
    2 reasons, the first being total IP on the year even though he missed 50 games and the other being their completely trash bullpen right now.
  24. mul21
    there's probably about a 6 or 7% chance of that happening (40% chance to make the playoffs, maybe 50% chance to win the wild card game, then maybe 35% chance of winning a series against the cubs). that does not seem like something that a competent baseball announcer should be predicting. Well, that's the issue. Hrabosky is a lunatic homer. Most Cards fans I know can't stand the guy. It always baffles me that a quality franchise like the Cardinals has such a decidedly mediocre broadcast team. Dan McLaughlin is a fawning cheerleader, Hrobosky is an absolute joke, McCarver is a windbag and Shannon is just okay. I can't stand any of them other than Edmonds, but Shannon is the worst by a wide margin. He's not only terrible calling the game, his mush mouthed mispronunciations are absolutely awful as well.

    I'm in favor.
