Yep. Everything about those last two innings sucked.
-
I was all ready to be five games out in the loss column; the Cardinals collapsing in epic fashion; and us kicking their ass in Chicago and winning the division after leading it for only, like, 3 days. This sucks. Horrible loss. Get out of here with that, "It didn't matter much" [expletive]. Now I have to go back to not really caring what happens for three weeks.
-
I really wish Joe would have let Lester pitch the 8th, but whatever... [expletive] happens. The bullpen [expletive] the bed. But why did Denorfia bat there with Bryant still on the bench? Is he hurt?
-
And as much as I've made fun of Bryan Price for losing a game with Chapman wilting on his bench, we lose without Bryant taking a swing?
-
What a horrible loss.
-
Let me see those dongs!
-
Dude, seriously just....dude Frustration is understandable given the number of times the Cardinals have come back against us this year. Everyone is frustrated. Nobody has this weird fixation on being miserable like you, though.
-
Bryant is donging us to victory.
-
[expletive]!
-
He's been p solid and is a groundball guy? Doesn't miss bats, going against a guy who doesn't strike out often, and also has a good history against him. It was a bad decision. Carpenter's struck out like 125 times this year.
-
the only bad thing about jake arrieta is that he's friends with that piece of [expletive] Ugh... seriously?
-
Who did you want to face him?
-
I [expletive] hate that weirdo.
-
Hey, we've missed you all day!
-
Do they, though? Between LF/RF/SS/2B/3B there are 3,000 PAs. Add 200 PAs at C for Schwarbs for a total of 3,200 and you break it down this way: Bryant 600, Russell 600, Schwarber 600 (inc. 200 at C/DH), Soler 400, Javy 400, Castro 400, Coghlan 200. I'm still not sold on Coghlan being the real deal. If he is, it becomes a big time crowd. Not to mention LaStella who I guess has some value. However, has Soler been able to stay healthy? What about Baez? Unless there is major clubhouse drama, it might be worth the risk to keep everyone around next year (sorry Jonathan Herrera). This, nicely summarized and put better than what I was trying to say. The only real problem is why keep Coghlan, only to just give him 200 ABs, when you could just give them to Javy and Castro? The answer is: because you can't trust Javy and Castro, of course. But, there is a point where you get diminishing returns from having that many guys that are possibly capable starters. You could trade Coghlan for a bullpen arm, minor leaguers, whatever -- as you could with any of these guys.
-
Yeah, [expletive] it, just keep everyone and let Joe get freaky with the line-up card everyday.
-
Strop up!
-
Schwarber being able to catch even just 50-70 games either helps clear things or clogs things up (if he can't) even more as well Haha... yep.
-
Yeah, Jon is going 8. No need to worry about Strop and/or Grimm.
-
Yeah, I have no idea what to do. We have three guys that might be terrible or maybe they are actually good in Soler, Javy and Starlin. And we basically have two open spots to fill them in. Someone's probably got to go. But, I don't know who.
-
We didn't listen, Sofa! We didn't listen!
-
Starlin must have been terrible against them earlier this year if his OPS is sub-.600 on the year against the Cards.
-
A Rizzo dong would be nice.
-
Maybe wants to use Jackson as a PH instead of Denorfia later in the game? That's really all I've got. Denorfia sucks. That's what I'm thinking. Denorfia is fine defensively. And, well, I guess, here is the answer.
-
Really good outing from Jon, after a sketchy first inning.
