2#$%^&*( Lincoln..WTH was that?? What difference does it make if he gets a Grand Slam or walks at this point?? Atleast you have a chance to get him out if he hits it.

Re: 5/1/10 - Reds/Cards - - Going for 6 in a row!!!

Any yahoo could have come in and walked two people in a row.

I don't see any reason for watching the rest of the game.

Enjoy your Saturday Night.

You can't defend a Pujols rocket shot. I am actually ok with the walk. Get Holiday out and the game is still in reach, give up a base clearing rope, and its pretty much out of reach.

Somebody needs to tell Albert to not pump his fist when he took that walk. That's just so unprofessional to show emotion. (sarcasm)

What a hypocrite.

I see where you're coming from, but I disargee. I dont think it makes a difference. Essentially, more than a 1 run deficit and we are done. If you pitch to him, atleast theres a chance you get him out.

Re: 5/1/10 - Reds/Cards - - Going for 6 in a row!!!

Everybody says you cant blame the managers for a win or a loss.

Well this is the prime example as to why you can.

Not a single reason there to pull fisher out of the game.

Since flipping when were DRH and Lincoln are go to guys in a tie ball game in the bottom of the 8th. Since never is the answer.

Dusty confuses me some times. Hererra against lefties and righties is better than Lincoln why remove Hererra?

Maybe hes hurt but even better when a guy is hurt hes out there losing games for you by walking 2 people he faces.

Re: 5/1/10 - Reds/Cards - - Going for 6 in a row!!!

we just scored 2 runs last inning. 2 can be done, 4 not so much. bloop and a blast.

of course all is irrelevant if holliday does his job.

Since our bullpen has been overworked the last few days. Rhodes is the closer today, CoCo cant be used. Lincoln has been throwing very well since opening day. Masset probably is not gonna be used unless he has to be.
