    Well bling it would depend on who you compare him to. If you compare him to say oneil, not a lot of difference since oneil has struggled with runners on. If you compare him to a better offensive choice maybe a bit different but are the Cardinals going to spend money for that.

    Well we are getting lots of rain right now here in southern Indiana.

    When an outfielder goes back on a ball instead of coming in, and the ball drops in for a double, how do account for that gift in the batter’s BA, OBP, Slg. %, OPS, and WAR?

    It’s the same for whoever the batter was so I guess it doesn’t matter how that affects any of those stats. It happens to all hitters at different times.

    willie, oWAR would be one way to measure the batter’s contribution/harm to an offense.

    The geeks should be able to come up with how to measure that. For any batter.

    Lester at 77 pitches due up 3rd, does he stay in?

    Well we catch a little break with the ball bouncing over fence, get out of it without giving up any runs.

    Yep Willie Lester on gives up one run and trusty McFarland puts out the fire. We’re hangin tough but we need some more runs.

    …..He has the potential to lead the NL in both doubles and triples one of these years. I wonder if that coveted feat has ever been accomplished? This question may best be put to Skippy and all of the good people over at the esteemed Elias Sports Bureau.

    Pugs, I just got a text from Skippy after posing your question to him. This is definitely a historical Cardinal strong suit.

    The Man led the league in doubles and triples in 43, 46, 48 and 49.

    Hornsby did it in 21, Brock in 68 and Molina in…wait, check that. It was done in 10 other seasons by non-Cards, with Cobb having 3 of those years to be the player who has done it the second most.

    (I couldn’t tell how dated the data was, so there may be more in recent years.)

    We are getting down to questions time. McFarland stays in, if stays this way, who pitches 9th.

    Well we got somebody else before then, Garcia.

    That was a ball arenado should have, he could have gotten in front of it, but he slowed up choosing to try to get it from side.

    Wow! And I thought Skippy & Company only favored me amongst Cardinal Nation posters. Gotta admit that you are a likeable gentleman, Euro. You almost had me with Yadi, Euro. Very surprised that so many have led the league in both doubles and triples….and pleasantly that so many Redbirds have. Expect Tommy Boy to be added to that list within the next 3 years. Thanks Euro Dandy!

    Reyes for the 9th anybody? RatsBuddy?

    Wooster, this season I’ve begun having a shot of Scotch about the middle of the 8th.

    Gallegos just closed it. I wonder if Shildt knows he did anything differently tonight?

    EURO you’re the funny one. I was thinking about taking up drinking again myself. I bet the guys in the clubhouse switched Schildts scorecard making him think it was only the 8th inning. Hes probably ready to put in Reyes wondering why everybodys leaving!

    Ha. Let’s hope the clubhouse pranksters have more tricks up their sleeves for this series.

    Crazy we’re still in this. I guess no one wants it. Schedule gets tough so it would be nice to be a little closer. I’m not gonna complain about a W vs the reds though!
