I really hate Scott Rolen.

[tpepl626]

We really need to end this inning Jorge has thrown a LOT of pitches this inning. I just hope we don't leave him in too long again.

[Bruce Ciskie]

This is a pretty pathetic way to respond to unexpected (but welcome!) run support.

 

JDLR needs to learn how to pitch from ahead in the count consistently. He has the killer instinct of a poodle.

[PeaveyFury]

It's gone? Come on Daron, that was clearly off the wall.

[TauPentaRei]

how are the Cardinals able to defecate this smelly without their Pujols?

[JoeH33]

Four pitch leadoff walks followed by a wild pitch are always cool....

 

C'mon Jorge we can't afford to let these guys come back.

[PeaveyFury]

And this outing is a pretty good indicator of what is so obscenely frustrating about DLR.

 

EDIT: Looks like the split fingernail is part of the problem.

[adamb100]

JDLR is imploding.

[PeaveyFury]

If he's hurt, get him the heck out of there.

[JoeH33]

12-14 pitches for balls this inning....

[PeaveyFury]

Winklesas coming in with the bases loaded... I'm having flashbacks to the last time and predicting a game-tying grand slam.

[adambr2]

Nothing like walking the bases loaded to give a team a free shot at getting back in the game.

 

I remember several days ago, Jorge walked someone to load the bases, and Winklesas was brought in...anybody remember what happened?

 

I probably shouldn't have said that.

[Southwest Brewer]

Now if Winklesas gives up a HR are we going to slam him even though the 3 guys on base have nothing to do with him.

 

I think it's looking bad for this inning and predict a fire Winky thread in a matter of minutes.

[YutakaEnatsu]

No, it's cool. Reverse jinx, right?

[Southwest Brewer]

Since that was my 666th post, I'm not feeling lucky....and I wrote that post w/o reading the previous 2 that referenced the Grand Salami.

I won't slam him for the three baserunners that weren't his fault, but sure I'd slam him for coming in and giving up yet another first AB homerun.

[Weirdos19]

I think it's clear that JDLR is a reliever. Solid through 3 and nothing after that.

 

Get Helling back and keep ZJ in the rotation.

[adambr2]

Whew...he got lucky there. That was Ball 4.

[PeaveyFury]

You know, if the manager and the trainer visit the mound and the guy has blood on his pants and is bleeding from a finger on his pitching hand, why in the world do you keep him in for another hitter?

[JoeH33]

Huge K there!

 

 

Now if he gives up a HR to this guy, I think I'd have to puke up my dinner.

So are people ignoring the fact that he's hurt?

 

He was solid through five the last time out...

[adamb100]

Will we get out of this inning with the lead still?

Because Ned Yost finds trouble when he least expects it.

 

David Eckstein heart and souls that one into center field to bring home a run. Thank goodness Yadier Molina was on third, because only a Molina fails to score on Brady Clark. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/happy.gif

Good point. Bloody pitching hands are usually a good time to find a new pitcher.

[adamb100]

Ah great, notin like walking in a run.
