"Official" 2011 St. Louis Cardinals Thread

This is so unreal. We were dead. No hope. A season over. Somehow, someway we find some team chemistry and squeak into the playoffs on the last day of the season.

Only to find us facing one of the best pitching staffs assembled in years with home field advantage. We somehow, someway find a way to beat the best pitcher in baseball on the road in an elimination game.

We have to go on the road and beat the team with the best home record in baseball. A team who mortgaged their future to make this run .We somehow, someway find a way to beat them on the road and make our 18th World series trip.

We take game 1, we give away game 2 and home field advantage. Albert goes off for probably the best performance in World Series history and we take game 3 easily. Games 4 & 5 our bats fall asleep, Phone gate happens and its not looking too good.

Game 6, one of the best baseball games of all time and it takes place in a season ending go home game. Cardinals are down 2 runs in their final chance on the season, twice. They are down to their final strike of the season, twice. They give up a 2 run homer in extra innings. In the bottom of the inning their final 3 batters are a combined 3-26 in the Playoffs and a pitcher because the bench is empty. Somehow, someway they get some runners on and the comeback player of the year drives in the tying run. Mr. Freese hits the walk off home run. We will see you tommorrow night.

Game 7, With our bulldog on the mound pitching on 3 days rest he is able to give us 6 good innings and get us to within 9 outs of our 11 World series title. Texas meltsdown, probably left over from last nights game and its over.

The underdog, come back team who had no business even being in the playoffs wins a World championship. They make movies about events like this in life. Events that you remember even if your not a fan of the sport or team for the rest of your life.

When it is your team.......Priceless

Mikael Cleto called up to replace Holliday (who should've been DL'd 2 weeks ago and would be about ready to come off now, but I digress).

Fantastic, we decide to go with a short bench again. In so doing, we've created a bullpen with 8 pitchers, 4 of whom are too old/ineffective to be trusted (Batista, Franklin, Miller, Tallet) and 1 of whom was pitching in A ball 3 weeks ago and therefore won't be trusted.

So in essence, we have a 3 man bullpen (Motte, Sanchez, Salas) and a 3 man bench (because LaRussa refuses to burn his backup catcher). 2/3 of said bench is comprised of a SS that can't field or hit (Kozma) and another SS that should probably be playing 3b...and can't hit (Greene)

This sounds like an excellent way to win baseball games in the National League.

Anyone think they make this move if Brendan Ryan wasn't kicking ass in Seattle? They have to justify that trade somehow, so lets bring this kid up way before he's ready so Tony can bury his ass on the bench.

Go away, Tony. Please just go away.

The debut of Lynn happens tonight. Threw 100+ pitches on Sunday. Making your major league debut on 3 days rest? They pushed back Garcia's start to start the kid on 3 days rest?

Typical Tony move.

yep, bringing up all these minor leaguers smells of showcasing trade bait. Wonder who Mo has his eye on?

but, for right now its paying off. Tied for the most wins in the NL.

Any of you ever been to Chicago for a Cards-Cubs series?

Thinking about heading up in August. Any tips/recommendations for tickets, Wrigleyville bars, etc would be appreciated.

I don't have much to say besides Wrigley was an absolute dump of a stadium when I saw a game there.

Yeah, I know it's a shithole.

One thing I've noticed is that there are more obstructed view seats than ticket sellers would lead you to believe. And ticket prices are crazy across the board.

The lack of hitting discipline rears its ugly head yet again.

Marmol has pitched 2 innings, and has thrown about 5 strikes.
