  1. Jim Bottomley on 9/24/1924 and Mark Whiten on 9/7/1993 each had 12 RBI's in a single game. Three players have 11 RBI in a single game and 12 players have 10 in a game.
  2. Just as an FYI, I won't be able to get the next thread up until I get off work around midnight.
  3. Guilty as charged. :oops: Sort of guilty. It would have been miserable sitting through those first eight innings.
  4. I have no problems with Lincecum's theatrics on the mound.
  5. That's because Armando Benitez is not a very good pitcher.
  6. He has the potential to be very, very good on any given night.
  7. Holy crap the bottom of the second was quick.
  8. Fontenot doesn't have a prayer against Lincecum.
  9. This is awesome. I love it when our pitchers can't throw strikes.
  10. Pie is not allowed to bat anymore apparently, but Fontenot and his sub .600 OPS since the break gets to. Hell I would have been happy with Floyd Pie Ward in the OF if it means DeRo is at 2nd and not Fontenot. Yeah, I think Fontenot has long passed his useful period. But since he was hot 2 months ago, Lou is overlooking the fact that he has been awful for well over a month. Players do slump. Surprising, I know. He's been slumping since the beginning of July. He put up a .480 OPS in July and has a .592 OPS in August.
  11. I really need to get to SF for a game at AT & T. my best friend went and was thoroughly unimpressed I've lived within a couple of hours of SF for 3 of the last 8 years and this will be my first trip to the park. I've heard nothing but good things, and I'm pretty pumped to see it firsthand. I heard it's pretty sweet too. I've only been to Candlestick. Candlestick is a horrible stadium.
  12. Like I posted before, Marquis was even better with the Cardinals his first two years that what he has been with the Cubs this year. The Cardinals are too lucky to have him struggle that badly for a year with them, though. There would have been some sort of divine intervention that helped him right his path. They already had turned him around. He posted ERA+ of 82 and 75 in his final two years with the Braves. 2004 and 2005 have nothing to do with it. Marquis having a down year in 2006? Possible. But being the worst starter in the NL? Very unlikely. And for the Cardinals, no less? Inexplicable. I think you're missing the point, man: the Cards are protected by a magical aura that prevents them from suffering from the problems and distractions that normal, mortal teams are exposed to. Marquis 2006 season defies logic. Is this even debatable? Why do 04 and 05 have nothing to do with it? The Cardinals took a well below average pitcher and turned him into an above average pitcher for two seasons.

  15. They are an average team when Barry is playing. The rest of their offense isn't all that special.
