Hi everyone
I’m here to say that Mike Napoli is full of grission. Good thing he can also hit the crap outta the ball.
We need some karma like that.
Some low rated no name catcher that’s traded twice in 5 days ’cause no one wants him.

all I want is for the Mets to have a good hitting catcher. And Napoli was unwanted by TWO teams, including a team starting Jeff freaking Mathis.

I LOL
after the NLDS when Amaro game out with some thinly veiled insults directed at Charlie talking about players needing to change their approach and not sit back and wait for the 3R HR anymore. It’s not your 2008 Philly team – Team needs a better game plan – or some such analysis on their defeat.
Don’t know why Charlie has been labeled a genius either. Mid way thru the ‘07 season, they were all calling for his head with the betting pool taking 9-1 odds he wouldn’t make it through Sep. Just goes to show you it’s usually more about the talent on the team than the manager running it.

Could happen here.
what a farce
I really think sometimes that we need to shrink the postseason back to just the world series so teams like the 2006 and 2011 St. Louis Cardinals don’t win it all on a September hot streak from scrubs like David Freese.

I’m just bitching is all. I feel like if the Mets trotted out David Freese, 35-year-old Lance Berkman, Jon Jay, and Allen Craig, they’d put up a collective -5 WAR.
Plus, St. Louis needed an utter month-long implosion by Atlanta, the Phillies bats to implode, the Brewers pitchers to implode, and Nelson Cruz to fuck up in RF just to still be here. It’s absurd how much good luck they’ve had.

For the ubiquitous Grandal fan's out there
Reds catching prospect Yasmani Grandal suffered a left hand injury while playing fall ball.
“It’s very sore,” general manager Walt Jocketty said. “It bothers him when he catches and it really bothers him when he hits. He’s going to see the doctor tomorrow and we’ll decide whether to shut him down or not.” Grandal hit a combined .305 with 14 homers and 68 RBI in three stages of the minors in 2011, but is in danger of seeing his fall league activity cut short. Still, it’s not unrealistic to think he’ll be up in the majors by some point next season.

I don't have any animosity towards the Cardinals
I am an NL fan and I root for the NL
funny how blurry that line can be

Texas actually has a damn good radio crew, fwiw
I’ve been enjoying their broadcasts.
could you hear their hearts shatter during this broadcast?

pretty much.
In the bottom of the 10th especially.
I have a friend who is a Rangers fan
He pretty much has determined the season is over.
Of course he’s always pessimistic.
I think they'll rebound and win.
This series is one where you can’t predict what will happen.
For all we know, the Rangers could slug the F out of the Cards 10-1 tomorrow(today).
Texas' bullpen is pretty torched, though
Only a bunch of crazy La Russa mismanaging could even the two teams’ pitching out for Game 7.
So yeah, I figure it’s pretty much a dead heat.
Both bullpens are shot so we could have a slugfest...
…which plays right into the Rangers hands.
Francesa said today
that if it goes 7 games and Carpenter is on the mound, immediate advantage Cards and they probably win.
So….Rangers in 7.

on the bright side
no more FOX baseball games for awhile
Fuck the ratings
This series has been awesome. That’s all I wanted, no matter who wins.
What's that about?

I hate the Cards, but it's hard to not like Lance Berkman

Best non Mets
WS game I’ve ever watched.
It wasn’t a battle of the best.
It was a battle of who had the worst defense, the worst pitcher and the worst managerial decisions ever made in a WS game.
Entertainment at it’s finest.

This thread had only 100 fewer comments than the LoneStarBall thread
I’m not sure what to make of that.
Mets fans are awesome?

same Bat Channel.
HOLY ‘GAME 7’s’ BATMAN!
That game was managed so badly that even McCarver ended up looking like a genius
all night with his analysis.
That's hard to do.....
Make McCarver look like he actually knows what he was talking about. Nice Job, LaRussa and Washington. Nice Job.
Jerry Manuel offered this quote after the game
Great game. Well managed affair by both skippers. They should be proud.
Dear Cardinals,
DIE!

It will.
It has to. LaRussa cannot come away a winner in this series. He just can’t.

If you thought God hated us from the start,
then wait until you see Tony LaRussa with another WS title. Even better, Tim Tebow winning the Super Bowl. Signs that God REALLY hates us!
