Carl is trying to pull EVERYTHING right now

 

He should get a day off during this series. We have plenty of players to fill in for him. Gload should play 1b tomorrow, and let PK DH.

Carl is trying to pull EVERYTHING right now

 

 

is it just me or does tadahito or rowand fit the 3 hole better than carl...i think carl is a 5-6 hole hitter myself

That's not the key question...the key question remains the Ordonez/Lee question...how much else do we lose by committing $11-12 million to Konerko?

 

We also must consider who can replace him for less money if thats the way we go. THe 1b crop is small and we'd lose a lot production if he left.

How long will Ozzie let Duque go in this game? I'm hoping to see him get thru 6 innings with only one run allowed, and then go to the bullpen. Ozzie should have learned recently that once Duque looks like he's losing it, you need to pull him.

We can argue for years, but Iguchi's not moving from the 2 spot this season.

Nor should he. We have no one that could fill that roll cept for maybe pablo.

i agree but i hope in the offseason they address this issue...rowand or iguichi in the 3 hole makes more sense to me...put pablo in the 2 hole....tadahito has to give up his AB's way to often.

Do any of our 3rd baseman make foul pop ups look easy? Seriously, even Blum looked like he struggled catching foul balls over the weekend. Poor fathom.....scared for life because of Joe Crede vs Manny Ramirez.

The thing is, as good as Ozuna has been hitting, he's not a real run producer. He's perfect for the 9th spot in the lineup. There's not a doubt in my mind that our offense is better with Ozuna at 3rd base than Crede.

Good job Duque!!

The bottom of the lineup is the reason for the offensive surge recently...uribe and pablo have been getting the job done...no more auto 2 outs for 8 and 9 hitters. uribe has really been making pitchers work too...great to see.

cardinals are going to get no hit tonight...

Lighten up Francis. Were up by 5, riding a 5 game winning streak in September.

 

Because of my self-imposed ban for the postseason, I need to get all my thoughts out now!

If they do, at least it's Rusch. You'd never hear the end of it if it was Prior, Zambrano, or Maddux.

Yah. But he's good with the bat. Can go the other way. He's no where near Iguchi, but better than the rest at that spot

The Boras client, the SS that I thought the Cardinals drafted, you mentioned the name a few pages back. I thought it was Khalil Greene, no?

nope...Tyler Greene

Khalil is on the Padres. Tyler Greene (or Green) was a SS from Ga Tech who got drafted by the Cardinals late in the first round this year.

Yup.

 

WTF was I thinking, I just looked it up, Tyler Greene and yeah, Khalil is the San Diego guy.

 

Khalil is a good ballplayer, he plays a good SS.

He'll never be the ball player he has the potential to be playing in that park.

Last inning for Duque?
