In that situation, you always play in to take away the cheap hit bloop single.

Castillo at the plate. He's got some pop, but he's slow. Instead of choosing to play the infield back and the outfield at normal depth it makes more sense to play the outfield in... with 2 outs. That's an easy out with Bourjos at normal depth. Last edited by jd1020; 09-23-2014 at 09:26 PM.. |

We have won 8 of 10 prior to tonight's game. We are not exactly stumbling to the end of the season.

That was a good pitch, Castillo just put a nice swing on it. I'm not sure why the OFers were playing so shallow, as Castillo does have pop, but that ball probably drops anyway.
Biggest problem is the ****ing unkillable Pirates. I blame this on a local radio asshole who said after the series in Milwaukee that if the Cards went 9-9 to finish out they'd win the division because there is no way that Pittsburgh could finish 15-3. Idiot-ass ****.

That was a good pitch. Our pitching has been excellent. Those AB's by Adams, Peralta and Molina ended our best chance to win tonights game.

They are mother****ing 15-3 since we swept them. Fifteen and ****ing three. Ridiculous.

The Cubs have Neshek's number, for whatever reason.

Not PH'ing for Lackey in the 5th was a mistake. It's September and you've got an off day tomorrow. You can't only give yourself one legitimate shot to drive a run in. We're lucky that Castillo made such a poor throw.

I wonder if we could have gotten Stanton for Taveras, Adams, and Martinez in the offseason. I'm really starting to wish that would have gone down.

Adams and Peralta batting 4th and 5th are killing the line up. Peralta is hitting .192 for the month of September. Adams is a big lumbering guy with no power. Maybe its the oblique issue. Something else thats not been disclosed.
The lineup needs to be changed for the playoffs. But of course its not going to happen. If Mo hadn't traded Craig, he'd still be out there and we would be watching the playoffs on TV.

Lackey did his job. 7 innings of 2 runs is a good start for a#4/#5 starter. It's the offense, not the pitching that will bring our season to a halt.

Don't PH Grichuk against a RHP with a good breaking pitch. Ever. He cannot hit offspeed pitches.
