This is not good Ross out of the lineup again.
I want to know why Narron didn't use him instead of Aurilia in the 7th last night. One swing and you could be up 5-4 or he strikes out, still better than the GIDP Richie gave you.

Nice to see LaRue get a start and i sure was glad to see the lineup was posted in error i sure don't want Dunn in the 3 hole as bad as he is about making contact. GO CINCY!!!!!

A career of productivity trumps 100 bad at-bats. IMO, LaRue has solid trade value at 4M. He could be moved easily for something of need.
KronoRed
06-21-2006, 06:08 PM
I don't think so, if he could be moved I think Krivsky would have had him out of here weeks ago, Ross is his guy.

Gallen5862
06-21-2006, 07:09 PM
Well Turdi was converted to a catcher. Hopefully Rodriguez signs. That would add more catchers for the personal catcher choices. I can see this now. In the draft pick a teams battery or let a catcher learn with a pitcher in the minors. :)

Mays' base hit is not actually going to turn out to be a good thing. He's going to be out there expending energy on the basepaths, and he'll then be that much more fatigued when he takes the mound.
When you're dealing with a pitching staff the caliber of ours, you gotta take little things like this into account.

OK. I didn't get tuned into the game until the 3rd inning so I've only seen Mays pitch two innings but what I want to know is where is that newfound speed that was talked about in this morning's Enquirer? It said he was hitting 89-91 MPH but the best (way best) I've seen is 87. Usually he's having trouble hitting in the low 80's. I haven't seen so many 70 MPH pitches since I went to a Pony League game. What gives?

He needs to keep predicting Cardinal victories
ESPN talks about Jr and Sr with 700 homeruns and than shows Sr hitting line drives. I guess it's hard for a 24 hours sports network to get tape of Sr hitting a homerun.
