  1. Yesterday hurt, but if you told me the Cubs would go 4-3 between SF and STL, I would have been happy with it after the mess at US Cellular.
  2. What an odd decision not to pinch run with Ward there.
  3. Ryan Ludwick and Rick Ankiel pretty much sum up this year's Cardinals team in a nutshell.
  4. He had a very nice curveball and some decent movement on his fastball, which was around 88-91, when I saw him. If he can add some velocity, he'll be a good prospect. For now he strikes me as a future middle relief type who can rack up some good K numbers.
  5. just make sure that in the box score recaps, he's not being posted as n. perez. Mwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! I'll accidentally list him as a SS, just for you!
  6. Sweet, it looks like Ryan Acosta's pitching again. I liked watching him with Peoria.
  7. 4 IP, 1 H, 0 ER, 6/1 K/BB for Hill so far. :D
  8. The Redskins need to be first on that list, then the Indians. I don't have much of a problem with the schools that use tribe names, so long as the tribe gives their consent, like the Ute, Seminole, and Choctaw tribes have done. Redskins changed their focus to pigs instead of native americans. The Indians are by far the biggest offenders. It's a toss-up between an offensive name and an offensive mascot. At the very least, the Indians have been down-playing Chief Wahoo in the past few years.
  9. They've got pitching prospects out the rear, but they have next to nothing position prospect-wise in their system. If they don't think Lincecum is going to stay healthy or Cain will get too expensive too quickly, why not trade either for a haul of top position prospects?
  10. Frankly, I think Milwaukee matches up better with San Francisco than anyone else. San Francisco has good pitching, but they need help across the diamond and power bats in the worst way. LaPorta would be a great fit as a RH power hitter. Alcides Escobar would be a massive upgrade over whatever they trot out there at SS (as would many other people). Cole Gillespie would fit in nicely in RF. Angel Salome would be a good fit, considering Bengie Molina will turn 35 next year. I don't see why Milwaukee doesn't try making a run at Cain or Lincecum.

  12. I'm hoping to see more from Shafer b/c when I seen him, I was not impressed. Banwart's having an interesting season so far, in spite of the fact that he missed some of May and all of June. Shafer could be an interesting prospect if he turns out like Banwart has thus far.
  13. That wasn't what you originally wrote in this post. :D
  14. It'd be nice to be in the Cardinals' or Yankees' shoes for once.
  15. In other news... Iowa is tied 1-1. Pie is 1/1 with a walk. Tennessee lost 5-2. Castillo was 2/4 with a double. Russell pitched mediocrely. Ceda, too. Daytona is up 4-1. Grant Johnson pitched well. Peoria is down 9-1 late. Pina pitched pretty well, but Castillo and Muller have not. The offense is spluttering, to boot.
  16. We already knew HGH was involved, so that's .333. I keep waiting for Jose Canseco to write a tell-all book about how Tony LaRussa is essentially an unlicensed pharmacist who supplies all his players with enough amphetamines, HGH, steroids, and horse tranquilizers to kill a herd of bull elephants.
  17. Rick Ankiel flames out, gets injury and mental problems that he can't work out, and promptly becomes one of the best power hitting outfielders out there. Seriously, this makes no sense. There is absolutely no reason for him hitting as well as he has been unless steroids, voodoo, or body snatchers are somehow involved.
