For that I’m sorry. I understand that I have a bit of responsibility here to keep up with the season. And Arkansas, too! They’ve been beating...

Major League Baseball bans MLB.com writers from... →
hotfoot:
Multiple sources have confirmed to me that Major League Baseball is cracking down on Twitter usage, ordering MLB.com writers to cease tweeting about all non-baseball topics and scolding players for their Twitter usage in general.
I had stopped following a few writers for this reason so I can ‘kind of’ see it from both sides. (Looking at you Matthew Leach) Some people are...

In Praise of Dave Duncan
probationaryperiod:
It is difficult to argue with Duncan’s success. His pitching staffs annually strike out far fewer batters than the league average, and yet they win games consistently. Beginning with the 2001 season, here is where the Cardinals have ranked in the National League in strikeouts: 11, 12, 12, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 13. Not impressed? Now here is where the Cardinals rank in wins...

Emphasis Mine! Molina caught for 20 innings last night. And three of those were for with Lopez or Mather pitching. Not exactly right into the glove, ya know?
My thighs. They hurt just thinking about it.
Also, no reinforcements were brought in for this...

Please Tell Me Last Night Didn't Really Happen
I’m still so confused.
What If...
Ankiel was still a Cardinal.
You better believe Tony would have put him on the mound… Ankiel for the win… OH MY OH MY. The place would have gone nuts!
If only, if only.
Mather hit for Colby Rasmus (FSY) in the 10th and played center and third before...
