So, our clutch is broke?
We need a mechanic...not Dusty, then. THAT'S the answer! :thumbup:
Re: Cardinals @ Reds 7-15-11
Why was Chapman even in there? He is completely unproven in these situations.
Re: Cardinals @ Reds 7-15-11
Chapman has been very good since coming back from AAA. If you aren't going to use one of your best weapons in a game like this then he shouldn't be on the team lol.
Re: Cardinals @ Reds 7-15-11
The pitch to Pujols was a strike.

I agree. He should be learning to be this team's second ace.
Re: Cardinals @ Reds 7-15-11
Its just the same old in my opinion. We find ways to screw games up.
It can be the offense, or the starter, or the bullpen, or the defense, or the manager. Chances are someone is gonna screw up tho.

At least, from TONIGHT'S performance...weapon-wise, we're bringing a knife to a gunfight.

He closed out the 13-inning game in STL and had been great his last 3 outings. He just sucked tonight.
Re: Cardinals @ Reds 7-15-11
Masset's curveball is very, very good. Nice bender to Freese.
Re: Cardinals @ Reds 7-15-11
No I think we have given STL our best shot. The lineup was good, the pitching was good, the defense has been pretty good. They get a few broken bat hits and put up 5 runs while we smack the ball all over the park and leave the bases loaded all night.

Right now he's either nails or a complete disaster. He doesn't have the ability to get the job done without his best stuff...yet
Re: Cardinals @ Reds 7-15-11
10 balks? Seriously?
That's crazy...

Was watching after the balk and Hernandez flashes his signs REALLY quickly - maybe he needs to slow that down?
Re: Cardinals @ Reds 7-15-11
Ok. Gotta comeback one more time.
