Why are the Cardinals pitchers....
- Thread starter TdotKelly
- Start date
I think the Rolen double play in the first absolutely killed them. If they could have gotten even ONE run in the first it would have helped their confidence tremendously. Instead he can't get the job done and they're back to the "here we go again" scenario. Cubs aren't much better for that matter. Each team has two guys in their lineup that can hurt you. That's it.
Big bats coming up again next. We'll see. Maybe Pujols scored some juice from Sammy before he left town.
:mj07: He'd better hope so! I'm still trying to get used to the thought of Ted Lilly not getting hammered. Ahhhhhhh... good ol' NL lineups!
lmao 2 pathethic pitchers pitching a Jem.. whats wrong with MLB... i guess everyone was on the juice :mj07:
Wow. They bunt the runner over to 2nd with the pitcher coming up??? Am I missing something? Why not let Izturis hit and if he doesn't get a hit then have the pitcher bunt the guy over to 2nd. You're basically leaving it up to Lilly to get a hit instead of Izturis. Nice move Lou.
When asked about Looper's performance against them, Piniella said "Wel...wel...wel...wel...well, he's an athlete." He then went on to use the word exceedingly 17 times in the next 30 seconds.
im starting to hate the cubs & cards.. The Mets are the only club that can score runs :shrug:
Go Mets Maybe!!! :shrug:
Go Mets Maybe!!! :shrug:
I hear ya. It's as exciting as watching paint dry. There used to be a time when the NL could excuse the lack of offense by the fact that they did the little things... bunting runners over, hitting the ball to the right side, sac flies, etc. However, they can't even do that right anymore. Small ball and fundamentals seem to be a thing of the past. The pitching is slightly better but that's to be expected since the lineups are weaker and they get to face the other team's pitcher.
