Probably should've just waited until he was non-tendered. He is pretty gritty though, a new Eckstein for them.

Great, the freaking Riot can stick it to us in St. Louis now. Why do pesky guys just find a way to stick it to the Crew? I'm sure the answer lies in his peskiness (it's a new word, all of the kid are using it.)

Respect to Theriot for digging the Cubs but none for repping the Cardinals.

I saw a comment on this somewhere, but I forget where. Not going to take credit for it, but thought it was funny: "Anytime you can replace a guy who can field but can't hit with a guy who can't field and can't hit, you have to do it."

Theriot is from Louisiana. There's a Cardinal following down there. I'm guessing that's where his comment comes from.

 

He's a good fit in St. Louis and unfortunately he's still not out of our hair. The good news is the guy on the Brewers he really wore out was Bush (.405/.436/.459). He also owned Suppan.

Good God is this a match made in Heaven.
