  1. Bob claims Cardinals Generic White Minor League Outfielder X "paid his dues" with 8 full seasons in the minors. I call it, you suck, finally get called up, and tear it up like every other 26 year old that gets called up for the first time in STL.
  2. Pujols takes one right down the middle for ball 4. I need to remind myself that Lee gets those calls to keep from being too pissed off.
  3. I'm glad we're four-pitch walking the guy in front of Pujols. What in the hell.
  4. Pointless, but hopefully Fox can do well.
  5. that is an amazingly bad way to come to the right conclusion That's not the only reasoning, but it's easier than finding a crap ton of numbers that also say Soriano is better than Zito. Soriano is a much less terrible value than Zito is considering money, position and production.
  6. Soriano can have a bad game and the Cubs can win (as has happened already a lot this year) Zito is basically a guaranteed loss whenever he pitches So I'll take the Fonz
  7. And Rocket shouldn't have lost it to a BYU quarterback who chucked 5 picks in his bowl game, so it all evens out somehow. :wink: Holtz made it, too. Well-deserved.
  8. I'm surprised you think we'll score that many.
  9. If Soriano is going to be that absurdly slow and be that afraid of the wall, we need a defensive replacement in those spots. Badly.
  10. I hate this stupid freaking Brewers team. Bite me, Braun and bite me, Blue.
  11. I wouldn't be against a drag bunt or something crazy.
  12. That was not an effing strike when Kerry threw it, you sack of crap.
  13. And you are still wrong. Check a run expectancy chart. I don't care what a stupid chart tells me. It's a simple fact I would rather have a mistake that doesn't end the inning than one that does. This is why you get more upset when someone strikes out with two outs than with no outs. There is no chance to make up for a two out mistake in a inning. Chart's and statistics aren't the end all be all. Is your globe flat? Does your car get 20 rods to the hogshead? The reason you get more upset is because of problems in human perception. The first out costs you more on average than the third one does. They both cost you an out. I really don't see where you all are getting this. Let's look at other sports. In basketball would you rather have a turnover with 3 minutes to go or with 3 seconds to go? I would go with 3 minutes because then you have time to make up for it and still get it done (which the Cubs did in that half inning BTW). In football would you rather have dropped pass on 1st down or on 4th down? I would go with 1st down because then you have three more downs to get the completion. Well this should be fun to watch.
  14. Tremendous work again by our best SS. Let's get some runs.
  15. Stop booing, you stupid idiots. He knows he blew it. Gagne up. Soto due as well. We can do this.
  16. I'm getting sick and tired of this. Our bullpen pitchers are better than this parade of crap we keep seeing and it's time they got out of it.
  17. Theriot did it for the first out in the inning I believe giving us two outs to work with. Fukudome ended the inning. I will take the one that gives us the chance to make up for it. They both count for 1 out.
  18. Perfect example of a before and after one tries to screw with Soto.
  19. He's hit the ball well ALL year. No one wants to admit it and it's kinda of lame how much the Theriot haters want him to fail, just so they are proven correct. I think it's ludicrous to state that Cubs fans here want Theriot to fail. Seriously. I'm loving Theriot's production. If he keeps it up he can stay in the 2-hole all year. But he's better suited as a backup as long as Ronny is on this team.
