    Yeah, it's not like Derrek Lee's shot up 200+ points for his age 29 season. ONLY THE CARDINALS. I love the people that act like a team that never wins shouldn't ever bitch about the lucky breaks their rival that always wins catches because the team that never wins gets like a third of those same breaks.

    Maybe not unheard of, but I definitely want to know how he did it. Slight correction, it was around a 70-point jump, which he then bettered by 60 more points in 2012.

    He wasn't a terrible hitter before 28, so it's not like it came out of nowhere. He's been a good all-around player from 24 onwards. The OPS jump is pronounced starting in 2011. So what? It looks more unusual because of 2010, but other than that he was basically getting better as he got older. It's hardly unheard of. His career-high OPS shot up 100 points in 2011 after having already played six full big-league seasons. I'm thinking that's pretty unheard of.

    Valbuena got one, Castro got one...I figure it's Barney's turn to have a bogus duck-snort RBI hit get put somewhere in his area
  5. Andy
    Good [expletive] lord
  6. Andy
    He just wanted to. You need further justification for a St. Louis player?
  7. Andy
    His BABIP is .357. Career high mark coming into '13 was .316
  8. Andy
    YES!
  9. Andy
    Stumbled into a good one for sure.
  10. Andy
    That wasn't even close to going foul. What the eff was Valbuena doing?
  11. Andy
    Oh [expletive] off Kozma
  12. Andy
    29th in BABIP overall.
  13. Andy
    Eh. I'd buy that argument if we found a horseshoe once in a while, but we never do. It probably has to do with the Cardinals being a far superior organization to our Cubs. Theo and Jed are here to change that. So you think they're coaching clutch? No but they do have far better player developmentover over the years. Sprinkle in a Holliday here and a Beltran there and you get the idea. Oh yeah they're better ran, but they're getting very lucky this year to have those numbers. Yep. Last year they were 9th in MLB in BA w/RISP (which, of course, is still quite good). It's just not a repeatable skill.
  14. Andy
    "What is it about the Cardinals that lets them perform so well with RISP?" Jesus these guys are annoying. How about the giant horseshoe out your ass that you have to have to put up that kind of BABIP with RISP to begin with? Think that could be involved?

    Oppo triples. So [expletive] sexy
  16. Andy
    BOOM! Suck it, St. Louis. Cubs win!
  17. Andy
    If Pete [expletive] Kozma gets a big hit here...
  18. Andy
    You can't rule out a St. Louis player until he's dead. And even then nothing would totally shock me.
  19. Andy
    On a related note, God bless whoever put an end to that ridiculous "Moreland doing PBP" idea. Sirott's not great either, but he's a giant leap forward from Keith.
  20. Andy
    They really need to quit scheduling the Cubs and Tigers for Fox games at the same time.
  21. Andy
    Please oh please keep this up Castro. So nice to see.
  22. Andy
    No Holliday today for STL
  23. Andy
    3 of them are at night. Saturday is a 6pm Fox game.
  24. Andy
    He inherited his former skipper's ability to always be right, especially when he's dead [expletive] wrong. Nice to get one off these pains in the ass.
  25. Andy
    That completely unsustainable rate couldn't happen to a nicer franchise
