Regardless of what happens I'm happy with the season , any more will be a bonus.

Yes and they are comparing him to his tutors Bob Gibson and Chris Carpenter . Lol pretty good company I might add.

One thing I will say is the Central should get even tougher , the Reds can make a major move with a few smart acquisitions. They have a very good core.

Whats going on makes the game exciting . I knew HOZER would be back because he loves the game as Yourself , NFL and I do lol.

I prefer Girardi myself , I think he's more than capable.

Yes I had already addressed as you were in process of . Whats the word on Hammel ? Is he pursuing FA ?

I like the Cards against the Nats but who knows Lol that's why they play the games .

Brother been working , they just about blew it with Martinez . Hes a head case as far as im concerned trade bait. The club as a whole has no quit. It appears the Central was the best in the NL . To bad they had to beat each other up. What could have been ?

I didn't think Jack Flaherty was a surprise at all. I expected it , as I also did from Hudson. Waino was the surprise to me . He has learned how to pitch in a different way than he used to. Edmond is for real I knew that in the Spring , even before he got called up. Bonus with him is he can play any position in the field other than pitch or catch and play them well. The kid can just flat hit.

Cards Dodgers up 1-0 Flaherty goes for Cards and in Game 5 if needed.

It doesn't have anything to do with whats on the field now. But im very proud of the Cards history. You are very correct that wont win now. Even the Cubs are not the same team . Jake should've never got away. Year in year out its very difficult to keep a team in tact , so its sorta like a puzzle to piece together you get the right pieces that fit into place then you have something. I don't think anyone can stand pat year to year and be elite.

Let me ask you a pointed question . These Cubs fans and Mets and so on are here regardless of their teams success I respect that . Are you here when the Cards are not doing well ? To me the true fan hangs through thick and thin. Im not trying to bash you because I do like you. Your input is welcomed . I just want you to think about what I have said . Thanks

Not an organization Im fond of . Why because they have had a major lack of class. You don't show it you will never have my support in any sport.

Girardi is a good fit.

Not this Cards fan Brother , never gonna happen . I know how hard it is to win World series championships. The Cubs are not far away and it may shock people but neither are the Reds. They both need bull pen help . The Cubs are also going to have to look to overcome injury prone players but they have a great nucleus to go with. Could also use another good starter. Hats off to Darvisch he seemed to overcome his demons and put it together. Winter will be interesting. Some may disagree but I hope the Cards make a play for Hammel even if he is 36.
