QUOTE (zenryan @ Sep 13, 2015 -> 12:05 AM) That's why Mike London will be looking for a new job come mid December More like week 5 or 6

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 13, 2015 -> 12:03 AM) Okay. The notre dame refs conspiracy should be going nuts after that last minute. How so, didn't notice anything wrong except Mike London doing Mike London-esque things

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 12, 2015 -> 04:55 PM) The Cardinals have lost 7 of 9. I guess that clearly invalidates 5 months of a .650 winning percentage. They're totally losing that division. They should have sold at the trade deadline. Like how when the White Sox won 7 straight it propelled them to the best record in baseball and clearly established they were the best team. That winning streak still hasn't ended. or that they've hit the wall with their amazing pitching tiring out now (most innings ever for Wacha and Martinez) and their offense unable to make up for the fact they're without 4 starters right now

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 12, 2015 -> 02:38 PM) 6. games. back. Not even in 2nd place. Cardinals about to lose the suspended game also. Lost 7 of 9 and looking awful. I don't get why Broxton is getting important innings for him, he was freaking awful in Milwaukee.

QUOTE (Lillian @ Sep 12, 2015 -> 01:15 PM) I can understand your pessimism, however being realistic, they are probably stuck with Melky's contract, Eaton is a bright spot, signed to a decent contract, and the front office loves Avi. Therefore, we are probably stuck with that outfield. Why not try to make the best of it? Wouldn't shock me at all to see Eaton shipped this offseason. DJ acts like he's the worst defensive player of all time, and there was the issue earlier in the year with the organization being annoyed with his positioning. Who knows, maybe he's the type of guy who wears out his welcome quickly.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 12, 2015 -> 03:56 AM) So he's hit 63 HR at age 37-38? Haven't there always been question marks about his age? I was being sarcastic though that he was actually Abreu's age as a rookie

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 12, 2015 -> 04:06 AM) Arrieta=2005 Contreras/2003 Loiaza On pace for best 2nd half ERA in MLB history. Just have to hope Cardinals hold them off forNL Central crown.

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Sep 12, 2015 -> 04:05 AM) lol and the Twins were only 1 for 12 with RISP. Could've been so much worse. You mean like if Avi didn't rob a grand slam? Overall, this was an awful game. No one besides Olt played well.

Nice having LaRoche's energy and leadership back for tonight. Was hoping it was a fake injury and they were shutting him down for the year

Cooper finally woke up

Putnam has given up a ton of homers this year it seems

Start giving some of Melky's at bats to the young guys. His garbage season is ending like it started.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 12, 2015 -> 02:53 AM) He came up at age 21. Allegedly

Wow Nate can't keep ball in the park

EJ out... Go bonkers Twins

Crazy Eaton power

QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Sep 12, 2015 -> 12:04 AM) He ought to get there. Really impressive stuff. More impressive for Pujols, who did so as an actual rookie. Let's be honest, Abreu is in his prime. Abreu might have been younger in his rookie year than Pujols

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 12, 2015 -> 01:07 AM) Bah humbug. I have no idea how this is a 1-0 game. Johnson looks awful

This starter for the Phillies has some horrific numbers. This is like a mlb team vs ncaa team

That slider of Johnson's is awful. Can't be hanging it so much

Nice power for Micah

Ump seems to be squeezing hell out of Johnson

Ha no Trayce

It's amazing how much the Brewers own the Pirates. Both Cardinals and Pirates look god awful of late.

QUOTE (LDF @ Sep 10, 2015 -> 02:56 PM) and for a long time, they drafted players who they can sign, and forgot about players who had certain agents, those that may wanted a better salary etc..... that has stop b/c of the salary cap but still they still need to be aggressive in their scouting and players/prospects. Boras has very little leverage left with regards to the draft. He tried to get Hahn not to draft Boras according to one report, and as we saw....hahn called his bluff.
