  1. And I just noticed that last year he logged his career high for innings as a reliever, and is on pace to approach that again this year.
  2. Springer had one year with an ERA below 3.40 in his career prior to signing with the Cardinals at age 38, and since his ERA's are 2.18 last year and 2.25 coming into today.
  3. Fox studio execs are telling him to say that desperately trying to keep people from turning the TV off
  4. They can have their cheap crap Cardinal luck hits, we already lost. Yeah, and after that Glaus homer we definitely did.
  5. My cousin is in 4-man rowing and his team finished 3rd in their heat, good enough to advance to the semifinals on Thursday.
  6. He wasn't within 20 feet of that pitch.
  7. Dave Duncan must be a good hitting coach, that's the only explanation.
  8. If the Cardinals were limited to output by legitimate MLB hitters, Pujols and Glaus would be the only players they'd be allowed to have.
  9. There is really no reason to pitch to Ludwick or Pujols with Lopez hitting behind them. Might as well IBB both of them provided there's one or none on when they come up.
  10. The greatest player of all time does it again.
  11. Felipe Lopez is playing LF. And he's hitting 5th. Mind-blowing.
  12. Haham awesome. I'd love to be in his shoes there.
  13. It'd be awesome to have to play Ronny Cedeno instead of Edmonds because he got himself suspended for 20 games.
  14. i'd thank jim very much for his contributions, request he wear a cubs hat to his hall of fame ceremony, and let felix pie actually have a shot at the job next year. he's been beyond amazing for the cubs this year. that doesn't change the fact that he's still pushing 40, injury prone, and has had declining numbers up until his cubs stint. Basically, it would be a smart move to do what the Cardinals usually do and recognize when they caught a break with how good a player was for them and not push their luck. And it would be a Cub move to do the opposite (Glendon, Neifi, etc.)
  15. That story about the 9 year old Chinese boy who saved his classmates in Sichuan was really touching.
  16. Hahahahahahahahahaha This whole Jimmy thing is beyond surreal at this point.
  17. When Jimmy got here I was pretty sure I would never be able to cheer for him quite the way I do for the other Cubs. Boy, was I wrong. And the OP is right - just like Barrett in the Oswalt incident, Edmonds earned his pinstripes tearing up the Cardinals today and getting a long-overdue curtain call.
  18. LaRussa's idiocy had a lot to do with it, I would classify that less as 'things going right' than 'the Cardinals have an extremely sketchy in-game manager'
  19. I'm getting sick of the AAA nonsense, especially when the White Sox play in possibly the second-worst division in baseball while the Cubs play in the second-best. BTW, according to Pythagorean the Cubs should have the best record in baseball by 3.5 games. AAA that.
  20. Jimmy hitting two homers and Henry effing Blanco with the walk-off hit, against the Cardinals = sweet. I'd love to see them try to beat Z tomorrow. He completely owns the Cardinals. Dempster after. It's looking mighty fine. :D
  21. you should be happy about that... i'd rather have a team that sucks ass than a team stuck in purgatory. I'm ambivalent, I was just joking about the 'streak'. Boggles my mind that as up and down and dooooooown that they've been that they've finished 2nd four years in a row. And no, we're not trading Smith, though we might as well. Sad that Smith is one of the great offensive players in this league and no one can even notice because he plays for an also-ran franchise.
  22. They make them. I have one, really sharp (relatively speaking). I think I got it in a Sports Authority. Thanks. I'll have to look for one next time I make a trip. I was actually at Kohl's of all places yesterday and they had a bunch of the gray jersey shirts, but they were all Soriano. I almost got it, but I have a blue Soriano already (although its in awful shape because of crappy dorm washers that don't rinse out all of the bleach from the previous user :evil: ). I picked up a blue Geo instead. Now I have a blue Soriano, Geo, Fuku, and a Aramis jersey. I just need a Harden now. Gray jersey shirts?
  23. Ludwick is bound and determined to continue to have 8 or more homers than any Cub. He sees Soriano heating up and immediately catches fire himself. And they're still 5 games back and an inferior team to Milwaukee, so they can enjoy their magical 3rd place finish. Bite me, St. Louis.
