Holliday signs. The Deal is Done. $120 Million over 7 years.
http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?...=.jsp&c_id=stl

Signed or controlled for the next 2 years

Shumaker 2B
Rasmus CF
Pujols 1B
Holliday LF
Ludwick RF
Molina C
Freese 3B
Ryan SS
And 2 CY Young caliber starting pitchers
Carp and Wainwright P

We get Lohse or Garcia to step up and be a reliable 3rd starter in the playoffs we can win a World Series with this line up.

OTWP is getting to see some HR derby. Nice turn around the game started ugly.

Frazod · 07-19-2010, 08:02 PM

Good comeback win with one of our shakier starters going. Well done.

The Dodgers and Philles are not the Royals and Astros etc. They are legitamate playoff contenders. We got an excellent chance at sweeping them now also.

DJ's left nut · 07-19-2010, 08:13 PM

That was a hell of a win.

They just kept coming. Chippin' away, chippin' away.

Then came the big bats.

The headlines will be the HRs, but the key plays in that game were the single runs of groundouts in the 1st and 2nd innings (huge to show the Phil's that you're going to keep fighting) and the double by Jay ahead of Pujols' HR.

That fundamental baseball was every bit as important as the HRs.

airjacobs · 07-19-2010, 08:13 PM

I am stoked as well. I hope Brad Penny turns out to be a good depth signing too. What do yo think, Pujols will get? Do you think he will stay with the Cards?

Frazod · 07-19-2010, 08:16 PM

I think Penny is this year's Mulder. I'll be surprised at this point if he pitches again.

**OnTheWarpath15** · 07-19-2010, 09:04 PM

That's the most fun I've had at the ballyard in back-to-back days since Game 4 and 5 of the 2006 World Series.

Hawksworth was getting taken behind the woodshed early, and I couldn't help but think the run ends tonight.

Then we just chip away, and go nuts in the 5th/6th with the long ball.

Pretty cool to see 3 of 4 hitters in the 5th go deep, then see Winn join the fun in the 6th. I think at that point, 4 of our last 6 hitters left the yard.

Six in a row - and Carp and Waino still to come.

**OnTheWarpath15** · 07-20-2010, 06:56 PM

Ryan Ludwick's first AB in his rehab assignment at Memphis?

Long ball.

**OnTheWarpath15** · 07-20-2010, 06:57 PM

Speaking of the long ball...

2-0 Cards.

**OnTheWarpath15** · 07-20-2010, 07:33 PM

Well, that should be plenty for Carp.

Where's this offense been all year?

Frazod · 07-20-2010, 07:37 PM

We sure are abusing their bullpen. I certainly didn't mind seeing Moyer take a powder after the first inning.

'Hamas' Jenkins · 07-20-2010, 08:58 PM

Nice to put a boot to the taint of those assholes again.

Me likee, whatever the reason. I'd sure like to know what got them motivated? Those losses in Colorado?

Those soft tossing lefty's kill us for some reason.
