  1. probably for the same reason Pirates fans think Pedro Alvarez could move from 3B to 1B with no issues... complete blind optimism. "I mean, if Yuni can do it, Braun totally can"
  2. thank you for bumping this thread and its excellent posts in it vs creating a new thread.
  3. hey guys, we lost but are still in first place! HOW ABOUT THEM APPLES!!!
  4. who has possessed zach duke this year and how can we convince them to never leave his body?
  5. just posted on twitter that Scooter was hit in BP on the finger and was getting checked out also posted that Nelson has a blister and is being pushed back to Tuesday against the giants, Loshe and Garza will be closing out the series after Peralta tonight
  6. I dont care Haniger got traded, 23 at AA, the kid was basically blocked from the majors for 3 years anyways with Davis/Braun/Gomez there, last thing I want to see is a kid get to AAA quickly and then sit there for 2+ years because theres nowhere for him to go. At least now he'll have a chance to break into the majors with less obstruction (without actually looking at AZ's roster)
  7. maybe a util IF guy will clear waivers, replace Bianchi/whoever on the bench.. I dont see them getting a 1B, the only other piece might be a RH RP in the pen to replace Kintzler until after Sept 1st
  8. I love how some media members have taken St Louis to win the division after the deadline... they did nothing to address their offense other than get rid of one of their top power bats of the last couple seasons. #bestfansinbaseballbias
  9. career slash numbers against divisional opponents: CIN (36 G) - .287/.344/.796 (AT CIN - .262/.333/.672) CHC (34 G) - .291/.365/.765 (AT CHC - .356/.400/.892) PIT (32 G) - .270/.336/.750 (AT PIT - .277/.329/.682) STL (30 G) - .254/.285/.717 (AT STL - .217/.250/.569)
  10. think Davis can learn 1B in the off-season? HEYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
  11. sometimes all players need is the flip from 31 to 1 to wake up! I BREWLIEVE!!!!
  12. I keep asking myself "did we need a 4th OF?" and then my mind goes "Shafer" and I tell myself YES YES YES over and over
  13. anyone know details beyond Haniger going to Arizona?>??
  14. st louis has no one scheduled for saturdays game, they'll end up with Lester, who will start that game.
  15. clearly they are trying to harness the power of Schafer to break the losing streak
  16. just incase this was questioned in this thread as it was in the Lester thread, i'll just put it here, too": Super 2 status matters to other franchises as much as it does to ours, which also increases Nelson value on the trade market. so to say "if he was gunna be traded, shoulda started him in May" actually potentially drives down Nelsons value as now whatever team would acquire him would have a player who has that extra year of arbitration cost associated with them, driving up that players long-term costs.

  18. is this something Lara could participate in, or is he still too young?
  19. thats also assuming that we have zero pitchers from A+/AA/AAA make any strides and improvements to jump to the majors by 2016. we have Fiers, Pena, Hellweg, Jungmann, Bradley, etc etc etc, if the front office continues to be proactive and promote players quickly through the system we could have even more (Wagner, Lopez, whoeverelse). To think that the only pitching prospect we have to have any value in the rotation in 2 years is being rather dismissive of the talent we have, which is how this fanbase has thought of our team over the last 4 - 5 years... decade...
