That fat ****'s implosion hurt my FBB team today, but fortunately my opponent had Bobby Jenks.

I've followed him really close over the last two years, and whenever he gets over 25 pitches, he's absolutely worthless.

:cuss: that. Even Tony can't deny he has earned a spot.

Heh, they didn't play any worse than his everyday lineup has played most of the year. The young guys are impressing.

Also anytime Suppan gives you 5 inning of 1 run ball you got be happy with it.

yeah, that Holliday guy sucks.:rolleyes:

Nice come from behind victory.

AP grounded out with the bases loaded in the 8th. Cut his ass too!

Huh? I wasn't ripping on Holliday.

Give me 6 innings of 4 runs and I'm happy with Suppan. 6 with just one run is awesome.

Can and will.

Just wait. Craig goes down when Stav is healthy (don't really have an issue with that, Stav has shown himself to be better off the bench but Craig is better with regular PT).

Jay goes down when Ludwick is healthy.

And we'll hear that he's being sent down to 'get regular playing time'...

I'd start him in CF and tell Rasmus to grow the !@#$ up.

ROFL

You have to be joking.

Permanently? Of course, Rasmus has 30/30 potential.

But for a couple of weeks to keep Rasmus in check, I'd absolutely do it.

Rasmus will sleepwalk through an entire series on occasion because he's just dead certain he's made it.

It wouldn't hurt to remind him that he's not a HOFer just yet and that production earns your playing time, not draft status.

It's a year long thing/ People are just too hard on Holliday. He is prodcuing like he has all his previous years. We are getting what we paid for. He hustles after every ball. He doesn't dog it on the base paths. He's signing autographs for kids at the ball park.

I hated the guy after the Playoffs last year. I'm still pissed off about that but he's a Cardinal with $120 million and a no trade clause, For better or worse we are stuck together for the next seven years. We should give the guy a fair chance.

Good Lord, how about we cut back on the hysteria.

This team should roll with Jay as the 4th OF, Winn as the 5th and send Stavinoha down.

Ride out Greene's hot streak at short, and use Ryan as a defensive replacement.

To be honest, I could give two shits whether or not we DFA Skip or Miles, or we could just pull a Joker and snap a pool cue in half and put it in front of them with the winner taking the last roster spot.

Oh, I was venting moreso on the lineup Tony put out there around him and not being surprised that they hadn't scored yet. I've always been a fan of the way Holliday plays the game. I figured he'd come around and he did.

Jesus. That was a weird day.

TLR trots out the AAA lineup.

Soup does a damn good job getting through 6.

Boggs brings his gas can in with him from the bullpen.

What was a pretty quickly played game starts to slows to a crawl.

Then thankfully, Joe Torre decides to try to get Broxton a 5 out save on a day where the heat index is 106. He looked like he was going to ****ing have a heart attack early in the 9th. 40+ pitches over 1.3 innings.


Great win. Hope this provides a bit of a spark for the 2nd half.
