Villanueva has a glorious moustache. Shark looks like a burrito pirate. Jackson is Jackson.


Lucky to win 1 game. The Cardinals that is.

I have lost faith in Renteria. Let's just install Hinske as manager. I like the well rounded cut of his jib. Rizzy & Cassie lead a sweep in spite of Ricky.

He's learning. Rome wasnt built in a day. It's THE PLAN. It's gonna happen!


Whatever... win some fucking games.

It's not time to do that yet, right?

Tough opening schedule for the Cubs. I don't see them winning more then 1 game this series.

Tongue in cheek. Take a look at Hinske next time they show him on TV. You'll notice he's reeeeaaaalllyyy let himself go. He's going to become a folk hero. BUT, Renteria mismanaged the bullpen twice against the Pirates. He's playing righty/righty lefty/lefty irrespective of the pitcher's effectiveness. He's micromanaging the pen and the hooks way too much.

Anyone have the Comcast chicago online feed link? I can only come up with the Cards feed and I'm not going to listen to Captain Morgan and the Bad Hungarian.

Shark looking good. Offense is a no show.

I think we are the only 2 guys on the board watching baseball, Matt. Sox thread is emptier than the Cell on a frozen day in April.

Great minds........

2 on 2 out. Time for Valbuena to do something.

Like that was gonna happen.

First time listening to this duo. Yes there's been a touch of homerism, but it hasn't been too bad of a broadcast. Also, bit hit by Sweeney right there.

Nasty nate stealing 3rd and getting caught. Way to run yourself out of the game ricker.

Al has toned down tonight.

Yeah my only gripe is the constant fawning over Yadier. I know he's great and any team would love to have him, but at times it's been a bit much.

This is setting up nicely for another one run loss.

Have faith! Olt is available to pinch hit in these late innings.

What actually happened on that caught stealing? I only have a stat tracker on. Was it a hit and run that failed or was Ricker just being a god damn idiot and running even though the best hitter on the team right now was up with no outs?

Hit and run. And Shark's trade value is through the roof!

I guess that is on castro then for not making contact.

Olt has taken three strikes.

They are following the master's plan.

This is what I find completely mindless on the ricker's part. He keeps subbing position players for position players and for worse defenders. Olt should hit for the pitcher....not valbuena. Olt should be starting and Valbuena should be the replacement late if need be. Now you have a worse 3b in the game even though he got a hit. He did this with the outfield in that 16 inning game. He got worse defensively and burned the entire bench before it even got to extras.
