Nope. After years of closers like Lee Smith, Izzy, Jason Motte, and now Rosenchoke, we have come to count on 9th inning issues. Hard to sweat in 70 degree AC

25 21 games over .500. Took two out of three from the Astros and beat another ace in Keuchel. Now 10 road games in the next 11 days. Nice to have a 7.5 game lead in the Central and now adding Johhny Cueto.

24 22 games over .500 Currently the largest lead in their division of any first place team.

That's nice but you would be ahead of the Pirates by only 3 games if you played in the NL Central.
Oh, and you would be trailing the Cardinals by 3.5 games.

He's nailed two so far tonight trying for second. You'd think the other teams would figure this out already....

But...if the true West Siders were East Siders we would be 2.5 back of the West Siders from the East Side and our cheese chunkers still wouldn't know how to swing the pine. Our team would still be cute though - just ask Dekinger he will agree

Swing the pine? Doesn't your team play in some abortion of a league that doesn't even let pitchers swing and the teams pay huge money so some old crippled bastard can sit on the bench all game long and run his yap in between walks to the plate?
And no......although I realize the description fits, I'm not talking about IIFID, Mac, or you.

Every once in a while....with all the television channels available now....we get to watch one of those big league games where pitchers also bat. Games of the week and such.
We are now 9 games up in the pony league - word has it there was a pretty incredible infield assist last night.

Kinda like Lee used to say about the NL Central a few years back......if the Royals actually played in a tougher division, they wouldn't even be relevant. Outside of the Royals, the entire AL Central is full of bad teams. Outside of the AL Central, the only worse division is the NL East.

You won't get any respect for the East side assholes either. I'm sure that bandwagon is mighty full with this new found success. If the Cards don't make the WS, so be it. 3 million people will still pile into the stadium next year, and it will be the 12th time in 16 years they made the playoffs.....with 4 trips to the WS. Put that in your newly found bandwagon jumping pipe and smoke it.

I would say to act like you've been there before, but one playoff run every 30 years will fire up some folks.

Show me another team that has lost as any good players that STL has year in and year out, and still figures out a way to make the playoffs this many years. Every hear they lose a keep player, but Somehow figure our a way to go deep in the playoffs
