I have a tough time trying to figure out where we're going to get runs out of that lineup. Especially against Wacha. The bottom 4 is a huge black hole, Reynolds could hit a HR I guess, but Bianchi and Herrera together is just brutal. Not that there are many options, but still.

I will be surprised if that lineup can put up more than 3 runs against Wacha and the bullpen. Gallardo better have a good game tonight; if memory serves me correctly doesn't he usually get lit up by STL?

 

"Gallardo is 1-11 with a 6.46 ERA in 17 career starts against the Cardinals." :(

 

Thankfully, the Brewers tend to do well against "good" pitchers and then play horribly against pitchers like Jason Hammel.

_____St. Louis Lineup

 

1. Matt Carpenter (L) 3B

2. Jon Jay (L) CF

3. Matt Holliday ® LF

4. Matt Adams (L) 1B

5. Yadier Molina ® C

6. Allen Craig ® RF *

7. Jhonny Peralta ® SS *

8. Mark Ellis ® 2B *

9. Michael Wacha ® P **

 

* These 3 have been struggling all year. Peralta has more HR than singles. (think he's over swinging?) I would pitch around Yadi to get to these guys.

 

** Pitch count is the key to getting Wacha out by the 6th. In his last start his 1st 9 outs were via K's. He was gassed in the 6th with around 100 pitches... Get to the middle relief and all bets are off.

 

That's all I got...let's have a good game. ;)

Hmmm...this may turn out to be a battle of black holes! :ohwell

I think you forgot a few asterisks there.

How many of those losses came as a Brewer?

With the way the bats have been going I would be overjoyed with one win in this series... please prove my doubts wrong crew

I did. I was being diplomatic. Except for Yadi and Big City Adams they have all sucked. :(

Looks to me like the game will at least be delayed given the possible tornado threat

Tornado? Humbug! Trust me here....99% of St. Louis tornado warnings are bogus. Even people living in trailers pay no attention to the "alerts"! There's been about 500 of them since we really had one drop down. (on a trailer park)

From what happened yesterday and what reports are saying what could be coming, I wouldn't mess with this storm.

 

I'm in the Atlanta area it's coming our way tomorrow. My neighborhood already got hit by a tornado a few years ago. Perhaps I should pay my homeowner's insurance tonight.

BTW, I just heard on the CBS evening news that 'internet explorer' has been compromised by hackers and targeting certain sites. They advised using a different browser for the time being.

 

People - given the choice - still use Internet Explorer?

Really? That's all I've ever used. Can you suggest something better?

Google Chrome, Firefox, just to name a couple (off the top of my head).
