  1. This is why I love Michael Barrett.
  2. Hopefully this is the inning.
  3. Lee will be fine as the season progresses.
  4. I'm calling a home run by Jacque this inning. I don't know why. I just am.
  5. We can get 2 runs! the way Carpenter is pitching? I'd like to think so, but I don't see it happening. If Carp had a chance of getting the complete game I would, but not with his pitch count in the 80's already. There's no way he's finishing this game.
  6. We should be out of this inning already. And Z needs to learn how to keep his cool. I used to react like this when I was pitching in Little League.
  7. At least the Sox are losing.
  8. We can't just give the Cards runs like this. It's pathetic. What happened on Ronny's throw?
  9. Z should have just drilled Edmonds. just to do it. he put him on base anyway.
  10. Both Z and Carpenter seem to be cruising right now. Anybody have a pitchcount on Carp?
  11. dude he's as bad as Jones offensively. I remember him coming up with a couple big hits last year. Which puts him better than Jones.
  12. Now we just need Blanco to come through.
  13. Was that the last at-bat, this one, or his next one? All of the above.
  14. helluva lot better than Monday, no? There are starts Z has where he gives up no runs and a couple hits through four innings but he has 70 or 80 pitches so there's no chance he can go past 6 innings.
  15. 56 pitches through four for Z. Looking good.
  16. Did Ronny just pull an Alex Gonzalez?
  17. Is nobody doing a play by play today?
  18. Pujols doesn't seem like the type of person that would act like a jerk to people. He just doesn't have that type of demeaner. I'm not surprised one bit he acted like this. As for Eckstein, he probably was just thinking, "wow, these guys are actually talking to me, and they aren't being mean. this is super."
  19. Yes he is. A good game does not erase a terrible career. My point is is that is getting a little ridiculous to see everybody freak out if he is in the starting lineup. He shouldn't be a starter, but obviously he will start some games this year. Can we stop the NSBB PMS whenever he is starting? start some games? who has the most PA's at second base this season? it ain't walker or hairston They have played 3 games this year. Wait to see how the season plays out. Having such a small sample size is horrible when trying to make an argument.
  20. Blind squirrel, meet nut. missing my point. I'm hardly a Neifi fan. He shouldn't be a full time starter. But, he isn't going to kill you either. It is comical to see people react around here when he is in the lineup. Agreed. BTW, I love the quote at the bottom Bruno. One of my favorite lines from the book.
  21. Yes he is. A good game does not erase a terrible career. My point is is that is getting a little ridiculous to see everybody freak out if he is in the starting lineup. He shouldn't be a starter, but obviously he will start some games this year. Can we stop the NSBB PMS whenever he is starting? People freak out because Dusty is dumb enough to keep starting him if he does well. I think the problem isn't that Dusty is dumb enough to keep starting him if he does well. The problem is that Dusty won't STOP starting him when he goes into a big slump. Why wouldn't you want to start somebody who is hitting well? If Neifi starts two days in a row and has a couple good games and goes 5 for 8 or something like that, why wouldn't you want to keep starting him. It takes a good coach to realize that a player is slumping and bench him and get somebody else in there. Assuming the player is an average player of course and not an All-Star.
