Was that LaRussa just changing the card?

 

[meeka]

...and to think that none of this bad defense is coming from Magglio. Hard to believe.

 

[SofaKings]

Weaver is very effective when he drops down.

 

[SofaKings]

...and to think that none of this bad defense is coming from Magglio. Hard to believe.

Stunning actually! On his behalf, his defense wasn't too bad the last two months of the season.

 

[thetman]

Duncan is so bad out there that I'm laughing. They guy can hit, but he needs a winter in the OF just to be passable out there.

Stan Musial was better? Old guys seem to still think that, but the numbers clearly say otherwise.

Yes, Maggs really just had a really tough streatch in August.

Not really.

 

[Green94]

Molina is making a name for himself.

 

[MrPhoenix]

Duncan may be the worst fielding OF since Jose Canseco.

Duncan may be the worst fielding OF since Jose Canseco.

Even Manny Ramirez thinks Duncan sucks.

Duncan may be the worst fielding OF since Jose Canseco.

Even Manny Ramirez thinks Duncan sucks.

When Manny looks bad, it's "just Manny being Manny."When Duncan looks bad, he looks like a 7 year old trying to track a flyball in your local church baseball league.

You forgot the part where he's striking out batters almost at will, but if it makes you sleep better at night.....

Being able to strike out Tigers should probably not be your first or second bullet on your resume.

Seriously. They were 2nd in the AL in SO's this year. They've never seen a pitch that they didn't like.

This thread needs more Bentley. Gimme a Lone Star while you are up.

thetman -- I have a couple of books I could suggest that may catch you up with the rest of the world.

That being said, I was a terrible hitter. Maybe I should have played the record at 45 RPM instead of 33. I think I will have another beer though.

It feels like the Cards are ahead by 4 or 5 runs.

Relief pitching looks shaky. Where's Willie Hernandez?
