  1. Lead off single yay Heyward about to hit into DP noooo
  2. Not sure but just looking recently, played from behind today, yesterday, Sunday and Saturday. Never trailed on Friday and Wednesday and Monday. Took the lead and held it much of the game on Tuesday
  3. Cardinals beating up Syndergaard. We'd better go ahead and win tonight
  4. Wow what a douche. Obviously we invested too much to do anything about it, but this probably damages the extension conversation.
  5. Tom Loxas floated a Candelario for Reddick trade rumor onto twitter and his follow up comments suggest "im not saying this is legit inside info but im not not saying this is legit inside info"
  6. This is only his 4th start in July. The 5th appearance was in relief. you or MLB.com is wrong http://m.mlb.com/news/article/191808464/kyle-hendricks-limits-hard-contact/ Weird, BR has him starting July 4, coming in relief July 7, starting July 15, starting July 20, starting tonight
  7. This is only his 4th start in July. The 5th appearance was in relief.
  8. Some good tidbits here http://nypost.com/2016/07/26/the-deals-that-failed-before-cubs-yankees-trade-reality/ more at link
  9. What an odd thing to say to begin with. His defense is propping him up and keeping him at least somewhat valuable despite his offensive ineptitude. Well that's the thing, the contract might be terrible but given his age he might very well maintain very good defense throughout the contract even if the bat inexplicably doesn't get better. If that's the case, we would definitely regret the deal but towards the end he will still have more value than Soriano whose bat dropped off and defense was never good to begin with. So I mean yes I'm frustrated with him big time, but I think the fact that he provides value in other ways, plus the fact that I wasn't expecting him to be a .900 OPS hitter, makes the sting a little less.
  10. I bet this is a cardinal fan passive aggressively trolling. Burn him!
  11. Starlin also had an offseason where people kept mysteriously getting shot in his vicinity
  12. In that 15 inning game vs Cincinnati he went to Rondon in the 8th with a 1 run lead (he blew it) and he pitched the 9th as well
  13. Lots to be disappointed with. jake starts laboring after 5 innings again, continued struggles with getting runners in scoring position home, struggles with making outs on the basepaths, questionable joe decisions, continued struggles of Heyward On the plus side some clutch hitting in the 9th, Rizzo still great, montero looking alive, Grimm and Edwards looked good, and Javy raking against RHP
  14. Wonder what our ratio of walk off wins to walk of losses is Gotta be like 1:6
  15. 34-33 in the last 67. That's 41% of the season. There is a much better team lurking, just Not sure when it's going to show up
  16. Which one are you referring to? lackey? Warren? oh Heyward
  17. So when do we send Montgomery back to Seattle with Happ Almora and some guy we never heard of for King Felix?
  18. Wait you just don't swing at bad pitches? My god I think you won baseball
