Lineup fun
Carp 3B Bourjols CF Holliday LF Craig RF Molina C Adams 1B Peralta SS Wong 2B Pitcher Swap out Bourjols and Peralta in the order and I'm cool with it also. If Wong hits .280 with a 350 OB% he should hit 2b because of the speed. |

If you want lineup fun, try one where Bourjos builds on the momentum he established before getting hurt last year and becomes a legit top of the order hitter and Wong plays to his minor league numbers: Bourjos (R) Wong (L) Holliday (R) Craig (R) Carpenter (L) Molina (R) Adams (L) Peralta (R) And you could let Bourjos and Wong do some serious running at the top of the order. Granted, I'm being damn wishful there, but that lineup is vile and would be nearly impossible to pitch to. Especially in interleague play after we pick up Morse to DH for us :D |

Maybe it's just me, but it seems carpenter is a prototypical 2 hitter.
I dunno that Wong or bourjos can lead off, but if they could is rather see carp in te 2 hole |

Yes, he's great in the 2 hole, but if Wong and Bourjos both prove to be accomplished, top of the order style hitters, the lineup is better with Wong/Bourjos at the top and Carpenter in an RBI spot than it is with Carpenter batting 2 and Wong or Bourjos batting 8th ahead of the pitcher. |
I made the mistake of reading some comments about the Peralta signing on the Post Dispatch website. What a bunch of holier than thou douchenozzles. They make it sound like they are going to burn all their Cards gear just because Mo signed a guy that served a PEDS suspension.

People that post on STLToday are a bunch of jackasses.

I have never found a Cardinal site worth a shit. VEB has great analysis in their articles, but the comments section is full of intolerable twats.
There was some forum RamsFan directed me to, but I got banned after like 20 posts because I argued with someone. I've only perused the Dispatch comments section occasionally, but I've heard it's absolutely noxious. |
I have a board I've posted at since the late 90s.
The registration process can be a little annoying because I think they only accept emails from certain domains (I think gmail works but I'm not sure Yahoo does, for instance). If anyone's interested, I can PM you the details and you can peruse to see if you want to post. It's a bunch of pretty knowledgeable guys; less romper room than the PD and, IMO, far more baseball oriented. There's nothing anything remotely resembling CP, though. This place probably peaked around 150 active members a decade or so ago. It's smaller now but the folks there really know their shit. |

It's still a pretty good board, though. Baseball talk is statistical and you don't have to go through any shit like you do at the STL Today forum. One downside, though, is that the social threads seem to be lacking as opposed to here. |
