Picked the Cards

[redsrbetter]

I've got them beating the Pads tonight. Peavy just hasn't done well on the road this year. I am a little weary with Ankiel being out, but I still think the Cards are the pick tonight.

$50 bet tonight. Go Cards!

[CrazyEights]

You are going to be $50 richer Redsr. With Lohse on the mound, the Cards will get a win tonight.

[redsrbetter]

Lohse has been pretty darn impressive this year. I don't like his Ks per IP like I like from a lot of other pitchers, but he has somehow got it done. I like the pick for sure. I just hope Izzy doesn't blow it for me again.

[CrazyEights]

If Izzy is in the game, then he will blow it for you. Izzy is done.

[redsrbetter]

What do you mean done? Did they demote him? DL?

[NYgiantsfan5689]

i think he means his career is on its last legs

[redsrbetter]

I just hate that he is still on the roster. Hopefully LaRussa is wise enough not to use him.

1-0 Pads

[redsrbetter]

30 pitches in the first for Lohse. Not good...

[CrazyEights]

What do you mean done? Did they demote him? DL?

I think he is technically on the roster, but he isn't the closer. He's been DL'ed a couple of times for silly reasons just so he can go to Florida to "get his head straight". He isn't the closer anymore, because he just isn't good anymore. I'm just waiting until Chris Perez becomes our closer.

I just hate that he is still on the roster. Hopefully LaRussa is wise enough not to use him.

1-0 Pads

me too, i wish they would just cut him loose.

Didn't you lose enough money on the home run derby, redsr?

[redsrbetter]

Can never lose enough! I am still up quite a bit. That was just one night.

[HollywoodLeo]

what's the line on this game?

[redsrbetter]

I'll tell you what, when I have money on the Cards, Glaus comes up with big nights. HR Glaus! 1-1 now.

[HollywoodLeo]

I think I jinxed Jake by popping in here during my lunch break.

I'm outta here.
