  1. lol the ESPN gamecast shows ball 1 as almost a straight strike down the middle
  2. ok you got the 8-9-1 hitters coming up, it shouldn't be that hard
  3. bummer, at least on the bright side Young is up near 70 pitches through 2 innings
  4. i can only assume fukudome hit into a double play from the reactions on this board
  5. Too bad Ricky Nolasco realized he likes being terrible more than being really good, too, though. you take your victories where you can love to see the cardinals lose a lot more than the brewers though anyway, even if they aren't realistically our challenger in teh division or not
  6. Who says we're not upset? Plus, it's not like it's David Eckstein who is hitting the HRs. No one said anything in the thread when it happened The fact that it is someone that we should be avoiding is the reason for concern, just dont challenge the one person in their lineup that can hit homers
  7. i'm surprised no one else is upset that we gave up homers to adrian gonzalez in the first inning in back to back games though i guess the wind is blowing horribly out so? No big deal?
  8. Especially considering his roller coaster ride to get here the past few weeks. First hes flown to Chicago to learn that hes going back. Then He gets up and does OK for himself. Then in comes Freel, and its apparently the end of the line for him. Then down goes Ramirez and he stays some more. Seriosuly between Scales and Freel, they need to shop Miles. Why bother shopping him? We ate Vizcaino's contract, just DFA him and if no one takes eat his contract too
  9. I don't want to be 'that' guy but those 2 runs might be all he needs
  10. God it would be beautiful if the Lakers lost to either Houston or Utah Please let this happen
  11. amused that such a good pitching match up (despite Peavy's struggles this year) is relegated to CSN+ welp, wont be able to watch it then!
  12. This Boyer guy isn't hard to figure out, he doesn't throw strikes, so act accordingly
  13. If Jerry Hairston wasn't so concerned with bunting he probably would have walked and they would have had bases loaded no out God I hate Dusty
  14. The Gaudin release is even more puzzling since he's been throwing exceptionally well as a starter the last few weeks
  15. If Bannister, Davies and Meche keep giving them good innings and they go to anyone else in their bullpen other than Farnsworth they'll have a good year defensively/pitchingwise The hitting is still atrocious, however. Regardless, they could compete in the AL Central
  16. I don't see why Scales never got a shot in the bigs, by age 25 he was putting up great numbers in AAA I guess he must have been blocked by someone in San Diego? I dunno, dude seems like we never should have signed Aaron Miles. I have much more confidence in this career minor leaguer than him
  17. I really really despise the Cardinals and it makes perfect sense that they are doing this to me right now I just wish we could give them back Aaron Miles
  18. Thanks Lou, this insult to injury here is that Marmol gave my fantasy team a 108 ERA and a 12 WHIP to completely destroy my pitching this week AWESOME
  19. cubs should trade him before he has that slump and everyone realizes he's worthless. This would actually happen if NSBB ran major league teams every week would be a new trade involving players in the midst of a slump. Texeira would already be on a new team, Matt Holliday would be out of the majors or something
  20. 5/44 with one extra base hit and an OPS of .414. I think that warrants a bit of anger. Soto is definitely not 'done' or worthless Now, Lee on the other hand...
  21. Looooooool our second hit leads to a double play while our pinch hitting pitcher is on deck good god
  22. our bench is so bad Z being the first pinch hitter is a realistic probability
