I had high hopes this team would play up to the level of the 2004 Cardinals. But there's no Steve Kline or Ray King who you can trust to get you out of jams. No Julian Taveras or Kiko Calero. Martinez and Rosenthal are all we have this year, and if Rosenthal can't find his velocity I don't know that we can count on him either. We had legitimate options off the bench in Mabry and Marlon Anderson. What do we have this year? Jack and shit. Jay, maybe? No one on this team hits for any power. Pujols, Rolen, Edmonds, Reggie Sanders, Larry Walker... They all scared you every time they stepped up to the plate. This years team lets Trevor ****ing Rosenthal hit for himself. |

Ellis cannot get back soon enough
And that probably means Kozma is gone Now just replace Jay with either Taveras or Piscotty and the bench just got a whole lot better. |

Taveras, Piscotty, Grunick would cost us a year of service to get bench help. We don't need that cost of help in April.

Who's playing SS? Backup to SS?
Not directed at you, but those who are in reality knew Peralta could hit .220. Next year he hits .320. Track record etc.

We are spoiled. You'd have to be foolish to say otherwise. Game was an abortion last night, but hey they aren't Blues Chiefs Mizzou.

Piscotty can play third as well He will never play there as a regular, but he probably is no worse than playing DD at short. They are probably going to stick this out until Ellis gets back however.

That lose last night was bad. But putting a beat down on the Cubs today eases the hurt a little.
