Nice to finally see Latos pitch well. 9 innings, 13 strikeouts and 2 walks. Not too shabby.

And Yadi won't start the All-Star Game.

If we can win this game, we'd be rollin. 6 is a serious number for the fouth game in a row.

He had one bad pitch the whole game.
He also had 2 hits to help his cause.

Marlins have perfected how to toy with me....

Re: 6/25 - 7/1 Game Discussion Thread

Bases loaded in the 10th, 7-6 game and we have to PH a starting pitcher for our reliever so Joe Kelly legs out an infield single to drive in an insurance run, 8-6 Cards.

Hopefully Motte can shut the door now but the way our pen has been this season this one is far from over.

What is this "6 is a serious number" thing?

I've been wondering the same for a few days. Thought it was just something I didn't get...

Re: 6/25 - 7/1 Game Discussion Thread

You guys on this thread/forum are awesome and I thank you for using common sense when it comes to talking baseball. I have been reading the St. Louis Post-Dispatch forum often this year to see what other Cardinal fans have to say about things. From what I've seen, about 80 percent of them are morons and do not seem to have a basic knowledge of the game. Trade this guy, trade that guy, fire Matheny, fire McGwire, sell the farm, we're the worst team in baseball, etc.

It's ridiculous. Thanks for thinking before posting and forming quality opinions.

Google it. You'll understand right away. It's not dirty.

Re: 6/25 - 7/1 Game Discussion Thread

Holy crap. That's ****ing awful.

I always said that if I wasn't a Braves fan, the Cardinals would be a contender for my favorite team....but wow.....that's brutal.

SMH.

Just saw the video. Have literally no idea what to say about it haha. But it's pretty cool that they have that deal going, with drinks for a quarter.

Re: 6/25 - 7/1 Game Discussion Thread

This Marlins team just makes me sick to watch, way to blow a 6-1 lead late.

Re: 6/25 - 7/1 Game Discussion Thread

This isn't so much a game discussion thread as it is an all star game discussion thread

If you could choose one of these 2 guys to be in the all star game, which would it be?

Player 1... .259 batting average, .849 OPS,13 home runs
Player 2... .197 batting average, .705 OPS, 8 home runs

If I told you that Player 2 was also a Yankee, that'd almost instantly put them in the all star game. Martin has over 1.1M votes, while Saltalamacchia isn't even in the top 5.

All star voting has just been sad now. Why not just let MLB GMs/coaches or writers vote in players?


A guy whose hitting .281, 21 home runs, 50 RBIs, .927OPS is getting beat out at the DH position in voting by someone who hits .242 with 11 home runs, 35 rbis,.775OPS and has started only 9 games this year at DH! The 1st guy isn't even in top 5 for all star votes for DH!

Re: 6/25 - 7/1 Game Discussion Thread

That Pedro Alverez/Pirates highlight was hilarious.

Alverez high throw to 3rd
3rd baseman overthrows 2nd
Alverez overthrows home
