Reyes is listed at 175 lbs.
If that forker is a pound under 225 I'll let Bubba kiss my azz!

Cards have yet another 5 game win streak stopped last night.
This has in the past then led to a week or so of horrid play against inferior teams.
Time to step up boys. Time is running out.

Good win yesterday. Gotta beat up the weak teams after all.
Keep hearing about the hot Royals.
A sweep of the Marlins would convince me.

Ya, sweeping the Marlins would be a good thing for STL. Put some breathing room in the WC for us

Jaime true to form last night, resorting to his old self after recent success.
And how many runners stranded last night? 11? 12? Homers are great, but a few timely hits last night would have done the trick once Garcia was gone.
This team needs some more heart if they wanna get into October.
But dang they have me. I am having more "fun" watching this oil rig go up and down this year than I had with those 100 wins last year.
Go figure.

Was that "pixie dust" still left from the early 80's Cards teams with Hernandez, Porter, etc.? LOL

Cardinals seem to need help from everywhere because every time they get close to respectable, competitive play they fall down with horrid defense, base running and now pitching has joined the fold.
I'm a big fan. I've waited and waited for this pathetic trend to end but so far I got nothing to show for it but a prayer:
Dear God,
Please make this team play better fundamental baseball, especially when it really counts.
Thank You God.

At the risk of appearing to be overly dramatic, this is by far, the most fundamentally weak team I have ever seen wear a St. Louis Cardinals uniform. You could make a pretty strong case that both the recorded errors and the moronic mental errors either directly or indirectly played significant roles in Saturday's and Sunday's losses.
Moss's brain cramp and unbelievably poor decision to throw home Saturday night directly lead to the winning run scoring on the next at-bat.
Rosario is 29 years old. He has been playing baseball for at least 20 years and probably more like 25 years. And he doesn't have the sense to know NEVER to make the third out at 3rd base? Add in the fact that it was the late innings and we were still trailing by one run and it makes his mistake 1,000X bigger. No wonder this moron has never had any success getting to and staying at the big league level...
If I were Matheny, I would be spending an hour each day in the classroom, with these players, going over all of the stuff they seemed to miss in little league, high school and the minors. A review of the fundamentals of base running would be my #1 priority. #2 would be where to throw the ball in situations. #3 would be how to be where you need to be on every play and every situation. #4 would be a refresher on how to go through scenario's in your head before every pitch (i.e what do I do it it is hit to me or what do I do if it is not hit to me, etc...). Then I would spend an hour or two on the practice field with drills, going over what was reviewed in the classroom. Novel idea huh? Who would think to actually practice on the areas you need work? Then again, maybe Matheny doesn't know these fundamentals either...
Let's hope they get their chit together quickly...

If I were Matheney, there would have been some steep prices to pay for all the knucklehead errors that have plagued this team ALL SEASON.
No one seems particularly accountable for their play on this team.
I know we are still in the hunt, things could be worse. But dear Jesus, I cannot take the sloppy D any more and the pitching seems to be catching up to it's level.
I mean down.

Even if they make the playoffs, they don't have the pitching to make it anywhere. I know they can get hot and all that, blah, blah, blah horsechit, but when your ace is Martinez at this point, you're pretty much forked.
I do think Lynn will make it back. He's been pitching in Springfield and the guy's a horse.
All you can hope for (IF they make the playoffs) is that Wainwright get's his chit figured out, Martinez stays healthy, Leake gets rid of the gonorrhea and Lynn can contribute somehow... I mean seriously, that was a huge stretch just typing that.
Time to enjoy the game itself and get ready for football season or in the case of StL fans, get ready for hockey..
Go Broncos!!

You guys need the same thing as the Royals; a lot of pixie dust and loads of accountability by players and Manager alike.

Tied with the hot Mets for the WC #2.
Two home series remain. Two more chances to get this monkey off their back.
Been a crazy year.

Defense should be fine, but when you go from a HOF QB to a dude who hasn't played a snap in a regular game, well..
I'm hoisting a monster beer in hopes of one helluva running game.

rook didn't look too bad. 3 turnovers on offense and they still won the game.. i'll take it.
I sure am glad that game was on vs watching the fantastic pitching of Garcia..

Man so sick of Jaime and his BP sessions with the other team.
He was grooving balls all 3 innings worth. He needs to sit, but big Mike says he HAS to pitch. Garcia hasn't earned that. I know options are limited and it all effects the bull pen but he has had the most horrendous year you could ask for from a pitcher. Those few "gems" were eons ago Mike.
Your donkeys squeaked a big one out last night. Turned it on in the 4th qtr and it was a good enough game to stay up for.
bwaaaaaaaaaa
