PrintSt. Louis Cardinals at Atlanta Braves, Jul 28, 2008 7:10 PM EDT
Just sitting around, waiting on trades, just waiting around.
Hey, by the way our lineup is going to look a little wacky tonight -- no Chipper, no McCann. I am glad that Clint Sammons is back in the big leagues. I was pretty impressed with him during his callup last season, though he hasn't been that good this year at Richmond, so we'll see. Also, it's good to see Charlie Morton back in the bigs. Let's hope he can do a better job then Jo-Jo Reyes. After a good June (3.58 ERA), Jo-Jo has been particularly bad in July (11.48 ERA).
Let's go get them Cardinals (and try not to blow a multirun lead).

Ignore that starting pitcher listed above (for both days), tonight's starter is really Charlie Morton and tomorrow's is a big fat TBD.

"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Brian Jordan thinks he's being showcased.
He is an expert analysis after all. it is good to see FYF back in the seven spot.
So do I, now...
Not related to the Chickasaw Nation though.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
Free college is the least I should get.
What with the raping and pillaging of the land.
Oh, and the smallpox.

At least we can allow people like Charlie to get plenty of time in the rest of this year. Hopefully that will translate to him being more comfortable/prepared to be consistant next year!
41 rookie starts...
The fact that were as close as we are is astounding after hearing that!!
no shit...
Think about it, next year we are only a few pieces away and some good luck with injuries from being a contender.
That is why we need to resign Tex, get an OF, and starter.
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
I agree completly..
I think resigning Tex is a pipe dream though
Well, ya know what...
I’m going to dream.
Maybe we trade him, then sign him as a FA in the offseason?
"Have you ever had your heart broken?"
"Yeah, when we lost the pennant in '87."
he got us a division title and almost won the MVP. and apparently we DIDN’T get a draft pick for him…genius work from the braves. are we even sure we’re gonna offer tex arbitration?
maybe we CAN trade him and re-sign him, because our pick will most likely be a protected top 15. woooooooo
still praying for adam dunn though
I still don't understand
Why do people hate on Adam Dunn, I would love to have him in the lineup.
His OPS is through the roof year after year.
I said probably
mostly because I am trying to give him the benefit of the doubt.
The situation in Chavez Ravine is not a good one, with the owner, McCourt, and the assistant GM, Logan White, meddling in just about everything that Coletti has tried to do.
So I guess we could run it by him and see what comes of it.
Wow!
Haven’t seen much braves action lately, but…i’m impressed!

There's always something to look forward to
For me, it’s July 31st – then all this trade nonsense can be over with.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
$5 says Chuck James starts tomorrow
I don’t mean to pile on, but I’m just saying, he’s about the only option.
