Still waiting for you and the Cardinals to hit that stride, FeLo!The Cardinals have sent infielder Felipe Lopez home.
Manager Tony La Russa said on Tuesday that Lopez would not play for the club during the remainder of the season. The team is preparing to open a three-game series in Pittsburgh
"There's not an opportunity to get him in there," La Russa said.

I understand not wanting to publicly berate the player, but that's rich right there.

There's more to this story than meets the eye.
I sure hope so!
They signed Tim Hummel?

Dang.
FeLo must have torched some bridges.
She used to wake me up with coffee ever morning
Lopez: I want to play!
LaRussa: Sorry Felipe, you've been bad. You're going to need to stay in the dugout.
Lopez: But I got to play a lot last year.
LaRussa: You were good last year.
Lopez: I'd be good again if you'd let me play. I got hurt but I'm all better now.
LaRussa: Sorry Felipe, you'll have to wait until next year. We invited Pedro over because you couldn't play and it's his turn now.
Lopez: But I don't want to wait. That's not fair. Pedro sucks.
LaRussa: Shhhh. Please be quiet. You're upsetting your teammates.
Lopez: Waaaah! Waaaah!
LaRussa: Go sit in the corner.
Lopez: No... you can't make me.
LaRussa: Actually..... I'm calling your mother. You're going home.

Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.

crap, now my fantasy team is really in trouble.
And to think FeLo at one time was the heir apparent to Barry Larkin ...

We know we're better than this ... but we can't prove it. Tony Gwynn
Sounds like another attitude problem. That clubhouse must really be something. If Felo was a good guy I think they'd manage to keep him around another week and a half. He must really be a cancer
I guess he's not in their postseason plans.
How will Chris Carpenter explain that to his son?
Hope isn't a strategy
Did we have a thread discussing how the division would turn out this season? If so, we need to unlock whoever wrote that the Cardinals would flat out implode this season and we'd win the division. I hope someone didn't throw out the key.
For this Cardinals team, it just keeps getting sweeter and sweeter. I've never loathed the Cardinals before, but this year? It's well deserved.

Bad player. I wish the Cards had held onto him.
