3.4 WAR vs. 0. Yes.

At this point, I think we need another bat and am willing to package some players for Tulo.

What is he going to get on the open market?

I want no part of Tulo. He is injured too often. We are going to have to give up way too much in prospects and he has a Pujols sized contract.

We thought we had a surplus of pitching to start the year. Didn't turn out that way. It's looking that way again next year. Want to gamble on pitching?

there are better options than Tulo.

Not to mention the increased risk of injury and not getting the lead foot down to prevent that. I'm not sure he got his down.

Just part of the overall Cardinal game tonight. Let's hope they can rebound with Wacha. Pressure's on.

Yes , it's a time bomb.

It was just one game, this is going 7. You guys are too good.

Via Sportscenter, Xrays on Beltran's ribs were negative and he's considered day-to-day.

'Hamas' Jenkins · 10-23-2013, 10:34 PM

Beltran has no hits and three walks in 12 career PA vs. Lackey.

I'm not sure you can risk sitting him, but perhaps it should be considered, however briefly.

Did Jon Lester have vaseline on his glove?

tk13 · 10-24-2013, 08:40 AM

I can't believe Lester was that obvious about it.

Holy shit that is obvious. This is going to get some play too.

Not a big data point there. He probably hasn't faced him in a few years.

Wainwright acknowledges at times using a mix of resin and sunscreen to enhance his grip. Just as significant, the combo applied to his pitching arm helps prevent sweat rolling onto his hand.
"There's a difference in pine tar from oil and grease, things that make the ball sink, cut or do different stuff," he said. "That's different than doctoring a ball. If one of our pitchers gets a scuff on the side of a ball he can do all kinds of things with it. An emery board or something like that is totally different.''
Manager Mike Matheny declined comment on the matter but the team is among those believing the use of substance mixed with resin to better grip the ball is widespread if not universal.
"If you're doing something to find a better grip, I don't have an issue with that," Cards pitcher Kyle Lohse said. "I don't think hitters would, either."
Carpenter maintained "every single person at some point or time has tried something" to better grip the ball.
