So, Hamas brought it up the other day and I've been thinking about it recently. Jimmy Rollins is about all there is out there at SS, that I would even think about going after.
Unless, you want to talk about going all out, he's about the best option (which isn't great, but if he's healthy, he'd be about what we would need). Someone mentioned that Taveras is playing everyday, or was before the DL stint, in CF. I think the writing is on the wall there. |

well not completely. He has one bad inning and then gets it together.
He has never been a "Garcia headcase" in the past. Maybe its a mechanics issue and can't get it back together. His pitches were coming in belt high. Your going to get smacked around.

Freese hit that bell well, so I'm not going to crucify him; Trumbo just made a great defensive play. There's no way Pujols gets to that. Adams' at bat was truly pathetic. I know that Downs is hell on LHB, but he couldn't pick the ball up out of his hands at all and was fanning on sinkers that were low and significantly inside. This is why power is important. We are near the bottom of the league in HRs, and thus need to string together multiple hits to score. When the team hits .330 w/ RISP it's easy to do, but once they start heading back to Earth in that dept runs will need to come from another source, and the power outage from Freese, Holliday, and Craig (although he's heated up lately) has really hurt us there.

Boy, it's been an ugly couple of weeks. Hope they snap out of this funk soon.

I'm beginning to really really hate Jay. It looks like he is back to moving that bat all around and taking bad at bats. Kozma kicking at the dirt after every pitch. Delcaso hitting .200. Wigginton is a disaster. Robinson has no place on this team except as a pinch runner. Someone needs to step up to take the place of Holliday's declining production. We have a good core. Someone outside that core needs to step up.

I think Westbrook could be trade bait. As good as he was before the injury is as bad as he is after. Oscar Tavaras probably would have been brought up already if it weren't for a lingering ankle injury. Carlos Martinez is a possibility to be called up to replace Lynn in the rotation. The Cardinals have plenty of options in both the majors and minors. I don't see any of the pitchers being offered on the trade market as being a step up.

What value would he have? He's not exactly the protypical rental player. The way he has pitched since he came back, what could we get? I don't see how he has any value.

Much better tonight. Pujols still nutless and Trout drops a HR ball over the fence.

Why in te titty **** have we had Kozma in a 1 and 2 and no out situation twice, and not bunted once?
And to exasperate that, on a guy that just walked a guy on 4 pitches and hit the next guy, we hit and run on the first pitch? |

The outfield of Craig, Trout and Taveras will look good with the birds on the bat in a few years when the Pujuls and Hamilton deal allows Trout to leave.
