    Just got back from the game. How did the cheers sound for each team on TV? I'd say it was about 3:1 Cubs fans and the Rays fans that actually showed up were pretty quiet. Every once in awhile they'd try to talk junk (chanting "overrated" when Aramis came up for some reason) but they were shut up pretty quickly by Cubs fans. Oh, and those cow bells are so god damn annoying.

    Nice.... drag him out to L.A. and then fire him after one game (a win, no less). I mean, a press release at 3:15 A.M.? Pathetic. Those 2 New York franchises sure are classy.

    I'm pretty sure Hank Stienbrenner is a cartoon.

    he got hurt last year and still had the best season of his career. How was his 2007 better than his 2004? You could even make a pretty good case for his 2005 or 2006 being better than his 2007. Not complaining, just saying. I think 2004 was certainly his best season.

    If that means that they're playing well through 2 weeks away from halfway (despite alot of injuries) & likely equating to them being a good team, then put me in the circle. There comes a point when sample sizes and pre-season predictions become diminished and likely to be wrong. If them sticking around and cont'g to play well despite injuries leads to question "how do they still win?", that probably means that they are a good team. If it was July or August you might have a point, but it's mid-June. MLB history is littered with teams who overachieved for 3-4 months and then faded down the stretch. The Reds have done it multiple times in this decade alone.

    No problem, your hands are obviously full with the Phillies. From La Russa: So if TLR can admit it, why can't you?

    I know. It's not like they've lost their Ace, starting catcher and the best hitter in baseball all in the span of a week. Super Lucky! :roll: Yet they're still winning. That's the point. Today was another game that they had absolutely no business winning and had it handed to them. "Here, have a win" If the Phillies had won would you have said the same thing? No? Why would I? Look at how many baserunners each team had. I guess you could also look at errors and extra base hits. Phillies- 21 baserunners Cardinals- 10 baserunners It's okay to admit that the Cardinals stole a game.

    The Cards didn't get lucky, the fans were so loud that they forced the 2 errors. Best fans in baseball.

    I thought the same thing with the Sox in 05 and Cards in 06. I hope you're right. The White Sox had good pitching and the 06 Cards only won 83 games.

    Whatever, I don't even care. No way the Cards get this lucky all season.

    I predict that Jason Larue OPS's .880 over the next 3 weeks.

    It's Bruntlett's fault for not sliding. All he has to do is slide and he gets in easily.
  18. 17 Seconds
    Nice slide moron.

    Listen to the ovation St. Louis gave Taguchi. They are so smart to remember that he played for them. Best fans in baseball.

    I love listening to Hawk get his hopes up in the 9th only to wind up disappointed
  22. 17 Seconds
    Not really. Everything has been softly hit.
  23. 17 Seconds
    We're gonna blow this game.

    Tying run on deck.
