  1. I wonder what percentage of our runs are allowed by pitchers we signed as MLB FAs vs. traded for, inherited or scrap heaped.
  2. I don't have a problem with the move, but it strikes me as odd. I didn't see Rusin as next in line, especially to replace a righty, especially when Wright hasn't been used in a week.
  3. Struck out two in one inning and got the win. Still a stud.
  4. Maybe they just don't consider Olt a core player? Maybe he's only good enough to be a platoon guy with occasional looks against righties?
  5. Platooning is awesome. Lake is terrible. I don't even care about the bunts thing I guess because it honestly isn't that much difference. Until you get down to measuring like hundredths of a run per successful bunt, it's essentially a neutral play.
  6. anytime we go to st louis and win the first game i am instantly thrilled we didn't get swept I want to sweep them and get to .500 and send them into a tailspin
  7. If we win tomorrow we're tied with the Cardinals.
  8. He's excellent defensively. I get that his pitch framing has been bad, but someone needs to explain to me how 7 strikes equals a run because I really am in the dark when it comes to this. The first thing you have to understand is that every ball not in the dirt or over the batters' head is Castillo's fault.
  9. That makes up for about two games' worth of pitch-framing.
  10. This is sully's fault. Only his teams.
  11. It's more fun than paying attention to the game.
  12. You still have not enough pitching and Olt isn't becoming a legit starter.
  13. NSBB spent most of 2011 saying there was no need to rebuild and that rebuilding was stupid and that there was *no way* Epstein would rebuild.
  14. Barney was trying to help wear out their pen for the rest of the series until he accidentally put one in play.
  15. That third strike to Wong was just filthy, especially when you compare it to the first two he saw. He never had a chance.
  16. Gonna win this game, gonna sweep the stupid Cardinals, gonna ride majestically into the playoffs
  17. Olt fails to get the run in like the loser he is.
  18. He's doing his job. Which is to smile and speak Spanish, afaict.
  19. We kept yelling at him for the sac bunts, so what was he supposed to do? *Not* give away outs?
  20. Platoons verified to work forever on that single.
  21. Season turns around on this inning... go!
