Series Thread: NLDS Pirates vs. Cardinals

[Darkstone42]

Morton and Wacha so far both look really good. I know Morton is the starter Bucco fans were most nervous about, and I imagine the same for Cards fans and Wacha.

I'm always nervous about Lance Lynn, to be honest

That's true. The Pirates I know tend to hit him pretty well. But Wacha's a relative unknown, just like Morton.

Is this Wacha's 1st start since he 1-hit the Nats (on Zimmerman's infield single with 2 outs in the 9th)? If so, good lord, what a run he's on

 

[hokiehi21]

Fucking Holliday. Why wont the Cardinals ever die easy

 

[Darkstone42]

I really don't see how the first three pitches in Beltran's at bat were balls. They were all on the edge, but they were all on the edge.

Just an amazing organization. They won't go after the big time FA. Instead they build within and then piece together good players like Beltran.

I just shake my head when I see guys like wacha and miller or all the young pitchers the A's find every year. My twins can't even find 1 lol.

 

[hokiehi21]

Yes! There goes the no-no and shutout

[Darkstone42]

TORO!

 

[Darkstone42]

This one's going down to the wire...

 

[Darkstone42]

Three outs to get at least one run.

Come on, Bucs.

 

[hokiehi21]

Bottom 9th, down 1, runner on 1st... Rosenthal vs McCutchen... playoff baseball at its best.

 

[hokiehi21]

Fucking Cardinals. Hate them so much.

 

[Clayton]

I love the playoffs

 

[hokiehi21]

who is pitching game 5 for the Bucs? I assume Wainwright is pitching for STL

Burnett?

 

[hokiehi21]

Burnett?

Either him or Cole

 

[Darkstone42]

Rats.

I go with Cole for game 5. He's really established himself as our ace the past month or so, in my opinion.

This is why managers make the money. They have to make this decision and live with it for an offseason if they are wrong.
