No chance in hell of Soriano thriving in the 3 spot
Too many breaking balls will screw with his confidence, he can only hit fastballs off back end of the rotation starters. Good 136 million signing, what is it about all chicago athletes with huge contracts, all busts

OT: Did anyone else see Buster Olney's lovefest over Pujols today?
Was on ESPN.com. He said he was the 2nd “most perfect” baseball player in baseball history after Willie Mays.
I respect Pujols as being extremely good, but it was an annoyingly sycophantic article…
it amazes me they spoke about him at all
he is not a Yankee or Red Sox

Very true...
ESPN is awful about that stuff. Though at least they’ve started with a Sportscenter L.A., and now ESPN-Chicago thing. Maybe they’re slowly learning that not everyone cares about the NY/Bos.

There are three or four 400-comment threads discussing this elsewhere on this site.

He re-injured
himself on Wednesday, he said. Re-aggrivated the groin.

He plays with his groin too much, perhaps?

Duncan
steps up to the plate. He grounds to Fonty, to tosses to Lee. Three outs, still 0-0.

pretty good pitch count for Dempster?

It's weird having Al in the game thread.
Kind of like going out to a strip club with your dad.

That's really weird imagery.
I may stop by these threads from time to time. For now… I’m out. Carry on!

baseball is a game of outs......pop out, ground out, line out, pitch out, strike out, fly out, and Fox and Bud's favorite black out
LMAO

Dempster pitching great.
Our offense is in a run. 0 runs, 1 run, and 0 thus far tonight.

Fonty comes up to the plate.
he’s been struggling, eh, Gibbon? And now he strikes out.

just a really bad at bat
he’s not seeing the ball. He’s guessing at pitches and hoping to make contact. That won’t get anyone out of a slump.

So we havent talked about Fontenot much?
whats happened to him since ST? Was really excited and high on him. Same goes for Soto..
Early in the year, they just dont look good up their.

Fun little Time waster!
Fonty
is exposed, I think. Playing too much.

Really wasnt expecting that though
but it seems like thats what everyone has been saying.

So I would whine about Fontenot
Except I think of the alternative and I puke.

Soto
knocks one back up the middle! Gibbon, I bet that feels good for Soto.
"That’s the great thing about baseball, you never know what’s going to happen till you get the final out." — Lou Piniella
it has to.
compare Soto’s approach to getting things going with what Fontenot is doing. Soto was patient, was willing to hit to all fields, got a pitch he can handle and drove it up the middle. What would you expect from Reed here drew?

Well
he did what he does best — knock it through for a scrappy single.

57 for Wainwright.

As ottO said, "that is about 11 per inning for Dempster, very efficient."
Thanks Dave!

And Reed
knocks it through the left side. Two on, one out, and Dempster comes to the plate. Bunt here, Gibbon?

i don't know
Soriano isn’t at the top of the lineup tonite. I believe that we’re gonna get some interference there.

Hypocrisy is flying on the Cardinals broadcast
The “Mad Hungarian” who built his career on being an emotional player is mocking Bradley. What a joke.

Demp bunts
Molina makes a bad throw to third, SAFE!
Dempster is called out, tagged by Molina before the throw. Wow.
"That’s the great thing about baseball, you never know what’s going to happen till you get the final out." — Lou Piniella
tremendous, heads up play by Molina.
He made the tag and it was so bang-bang that Greene couldn’t get to cover third.
It’s up to Theriot here to get a clutch hit in a game that very well may be decided by a run or two based on how the SP are throwing.

Boy... hate to be negative
But I’d feel a lot better with Soriano up right now
There is no such thing as an ugly female breast
