I don't want to move to the AL
it would be like inter league play all the time which means we would be 2-160
unless we signed Pujols or Fielder to DH!!

Bases weren’t loaded any more, so Bruce could get a hit!
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
God damnit, why look back????
"Wait, you think I'm being mean to the pretend orangutan?" -- battlekow
That's not the point
You know as well as I do that when tagging from third, you haul ass home and depend on the guy in the on deck circle to tell whether or not to slide and which way to do so.
"Wait, you think I'm being mean to the pretend orangutan?" -- battlekow
Nah
Fuck that. Check the throw once to see how ya might need to slide. Inside outside.
Plus, he was safe!

Hmmm?
You don’t remember all the terrible baserunning last year?
We’re actually better this year, and by better I mean less horrible.
I don't think so
at least not going first to third and that sort of thing, I need to look at stats but I bet they would reveal we are not quite as good a base running team
That's my impression too
Haven’t looked at the numbers, but I know our SBs are down.

Yeah, we were a good baserunning team last year
definitely one of the better ones in baseball

Heisey is a LIDR, just like everyone says he should be.
"Wait, you think I'm being mean to the pretend orangutan?" -- battlekow
I'm pretty sure he'd still be chasing it

Dusty wants Cueto to get the ERA title
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Horsecrap....
Fielding in the big leagues is like fielding in the minors. You don’t learn by having an extra 1 or 2 opportunities in the majors.
Does Alonso catch that ball?
Serious question.
"Wait, you think I'm being mean to the pretend orangutan?" -- battlekow
Depends on where he's positioned, but I don't think so.
"Luna Lovegood is really freaking awesome in every way." -Me
I love him to death at the plate
I’d rather him get a chance at 3B than LF, he’s just too damned slow.
"Wait, you think I'm being mean to the pretend orangutan?" -- battlekow
The Cubs announcers think Alonso just got a lot faster.

Carpenter trash talks Nyjer

I hope they fight and both fall off a cliff
"Wait, you think I'm being mean to the pretend orangutan?" -- battlekow
that and the Cardinals are pathetic little babies.
"Luna Lovegood is really freaking awesome in every way." -Me
I do want to see Nyjer taken out though
I think that maybe neck tat Molina could take care of Nyjer and then Fielder can wipe him out and several others with a body slam
Molina couldn't take care of his own mother.
"Luna Lovegood is really freaking awesome in every way." -Me
But of course, it was the Reds who were in the wrong last year
And the Brewers this year. Because the Cardinals play the game The Right Way™.
They just showed it again on the Brewers feed
Not much of a fight. But Pujols absolutely started it.
I'm sure he had been disrespected somehow
"Wait, you think I'm being mean to the pretend orangutan?" -- battlekow
Live look in!

Serious question:
If I were to look for a used car, what should I look for?
by Charlie Scrabbles on Sep 7, 2011 10:17 PM EDT up reply actions
it really depends on how much equipment you require
i don’t care about anything but air conditioning, so i bought a nissan versa hatchback. it’s a stick shift & comes with crank windows, but it gets great gas mileage & only cost 11,000 new.
if you require an automatic and/or power options, i would look for a 2003-2005 corolla or civic.
they will run forever, hold their value, look good, get great gas mileage & usually won’t cost you much for maintenance
Awesome
I’m with you in that I don’t really care too much about anything but AC (though I do need an auto because I never learned stick). Thanks.

I've had my Hyundai since 2005
great car, great gas mileage, has had nothing more than a couple of minor mechanical issues, good power, lots of power equipment.
My next car will probably be a Hyundai, even if I am more wealthy when that time comes.
It will get better.
two years, my bad
The new style started in ’09.
"Wait, you think I'm being mean to the pretend orangutan?" -- battlekow
Really? Seems like they've been around longer than that
Four years then.
"Wait, you think I'm being mean to the pretend orangutan?" -- battlekow
yeah
they were apparently a limited run as 11 models.
i thought the 2012 model was their first year.
car model years are almost as screwed up as Madden model years
My father-in-law might sell me his Accord
I think it’s an ‘03 or ’04. I’m gonna put a 10-disc CD changer in it so as to be historically accurate.

Damn, Stubbs could have gotten to third
"Wait, you think I'm being mean to the pretend orangutan?" -- battlekow
He could have made it pretty easily, no one was covering 3B
"Wait, you think I'm being mean to the pretend orangutan?" -- battlekow
and the ball bounced right to 3B
If it had gone the other way, I think he’d have tried it.

Come on Wily Mo, prove me wrong!

It might have actually been Pujols who was trash talking
So Nyjer gets ejected. Umps is another way to spell FAIL.
"Prince Fielder is too fat even for the Oakland A’s" - Billy Beane
From the replay I say, Pujols started it
Nyjer was running his mouth, as he does, and Carpenter (to his credit) was ignoring it. Pujols ran all the way to first to start some shit.
he can't resist swinging at that pitch
And the word seems to be getting around.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
I'm afraid he's not gonna see too many strikes to hit
unless he makes a pretty quick adaptation
expectations are premeditated resentments - cheshirecat
there word should have gotten around all ready
he didn’t take a pitch in the minors either.
It will get better.
Sorry Ramon, that was a strike

Speedy Stubbs on 2B with no outs, and we can’t bring him home.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
no
Joey charged in on the bunt.
He’s done this before, and gotten burned on it. Picked up the ball, then looked around trying to decide where to throw it. As Kelch said, he should already know where he’s going to throw it before he picks it up.
No harm this time, though.

yeah even wretched basebal like tonight
is better than no baseball, but I’m not looking forward to CO. They always play bad there it seems.
Rather than watch the Fox sports postgame, I’m watching a little Angels/Mariners. The crazy Angels are actually using rookies in a pennant run. I wonder if Doug Melvin laughs at them while Kotsay and Counsell feebly wave at pitches.

Nyjer
says WLB leader Carp laid the old F bomb on him. That’s Cardinals baseball.
"Prince Fielder is too fat even for the Oakland A’s" - Billy Beane
I believe it
Carp has a foul mouth and bad temper. Why did Carp do that though when he was in control the way he was? Did something happen earlier in the game to make him feel righteously indignant?
Nyjer had a double earlier and just struck out but it was something like a 9 pitch at bat.
"Prince Fielder is too fat even for the Oakland A’s" - Billy Beane
I see
so Carp felt he finally won and punctuated it with an “F—-you”. I will say this for Carpenter, Nyjer is pretty much a loud mouthed tool. That doesn’t mean Carpenter should be provoking fights yelling obscenities at players, but I might actually be able to understand the motivation when Morgan is batting. I did see Morgan tweeted this after the game:
Alberta couldn’t see Plush if she had her gloves on!!! Wat was she thinking running afta Plush!!! She never been n tha ring!!!
Alberta!?
As much as I hate the Cards
I dislike Morgan just as much and if you watch the video (here) it looks like Morgan is just as responsible, if not more so than Carp. He yells F**k you as soon as he swings and misses. With as quick as he said it, it doesn’t really seem like Carp even had time to say something.
yeah
Looks like Carp wasn’t even paying attention to Morgan. He wasn’t even looking his way while Morgan was yammering on. Morgan was trying to get Carp to turn around and look at him. The Cards got upset when Morgan took his chaw out of his mouth and threw it at Carp, and that’s when everyone ran in and Carp turned around.
Morgan’s an idiot. He makes it hard for me to root for the Brewers. Starting a brawl over being struck out? Puh-lease.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
You root for the Yankees
Carpenter has a reputation as a foul mouthed asshole even with Cards fans. You’re assuming a lot. He threw his tobacco and Pujols was the biggest tool. Starting a brawl because anybody actually talks back to the sacred Cardinals. Puh-lease. Will you root for the biggest baby in baseball if he becomes a Cardinal?
"Prince Fielder is too fat even for the Oakland A’s" - Billy Beane
not if he throws used chewing tobacco at people
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Calling an immature asshole like Pujols a girl isn’t misogynist.

I feel like I'd have more respect for Morgan
if he was
a. remotely intelligent- Alberta? Come on. Being misogynist isn’t even the least bit original or creative. Are you trying to insinuate that the guy’s from Canada or something? Just shut up.
not completely batshit crazy. Freel’s farney? Endearing. Rickey Henderson speaking in the third person? Amusing. Nyjer Morgan’s nickname for himself… Plush? What are you, a beanie baby?c. if he was actually any good. A career .724 OPS? He’s barely an above average player. It’s one thing if you’re a cocky sonofabitch and you have the skills to back it up (Brandon Phillips, Chris Carpenter, Manny, Rickey, the list goes on and on) but nobody should even be signing this idiot. He’s a waste of time and a clubhouse cancer.

you do have to wonder why teams even deal with him
he isn’t a bad player, but he isn’t so good that I think wow I want the Reds to get him even if he is a first rate asshole.

well there is probalby something wrong with Frazier if he was still on the bench at 2:22 this morning
the rest of the team was probably close to Denver at that point!
