Re: baseball
clutch time for cards. was disappointed to listen to the game on the way home last night. thought the cards would have it. good luck Jenks and Toasty, I hope your teams wins tonight. They are one of the few teams that actually deserve to be in the WS.Leave a comment:

Re: baseball
1. rolen will ask to be traded, as not just the FOX assholes are saying he hasnt spoken a word to his teammates this series.
2. larussa is a dickhead, i watched the post games, and frankly, this guy doesnt give anyone credit. he over manages everything, and drags the game out so badly. he is good, but overrated and annoying.
3. yet another line item for NY media to destroy albert last night. his reaction to ''pujols sucks'' chants was caught on the TV, and just gave NY more fire.
4. ekstein is an extremely underrated feilder outside of st lou.sLeave a comment:

Re: baseball
that sucked. gotta give it up to Maine, tho, he pitched quite a game, esp. for a rookie in a tough spot. We looked awful up until the 9th, but by that time, it was too little, too late.
I'll be curious to see if Rolen starts tonight. He's looked really flat at the plate this postseason, and even his defense was subpar last night. He did come through with a big hit in the 9th last night, and they'll almost certaily be facing a lefty, so that might solidify his spot...Leave a comment:

Re: baseball
maine was unreal. i have been going on and on about this kid all year, and he comes through. fook.yes. wagner sucks,and yet again, reyes proved he is the best player ont he team, not beltran. god damn that kid reminds me of a young jeter with mroe speed, little differences.
maine's post game news conference was great. you can see something about him that makes him great for NY, smart ass remarks, but nothing mean, just humor and wit. he is focused on the mound, makes pitches when he needs to.
tonight.play or go home. cant ask for more. ('cept an AL series going 7 too)Leave a comment:

Re: baseball
Maine did it, working out of jams is so key. Not only because you obviously get out but also because it establishes a tone for the game and the Cards really lost steam after failing to score with the bases loaded twice early in the game.
Wagner comes in to give me a heart attack in his usual non-save shitfest. If Spezio came to bat, there wouldn't be a game 7. BTW, I love the greating he got from the crowd when he came to bat in the 2nd!

Re: baseball
happens every year in the national league it seems. the AL world series team gets there lightning quick and the NLCS teams beat each other up so there's nothing left when they get to the WS.

Re: baseball
I feel real good about the series at this point. We have to win one of two with Carpenter and Suppan -- sure, it's in NY, but with that being the unavoidable fact of the matter, having those two gives us a great chance to succeed, IMO.
And incidentally, this has been a very interesting series. Lots of good games (except for Sunday), and constantly shifting momentum. In light of the way things have gone, the Cards need to close things out tomorrow...Leave a comment:

Re: baseball
fucking awesome! surprised most at the pitching of the cards this post season, namely, weaver. stellar work so far for a staff that was just pretty okay during the regular season. back to ny tho, still going to be hard to close it out there.
will be curious to see what the writers say about pujols tomorrow.
