She's like Kate Upton with at least some hips.

Agreed. I think I like Upton's face a little better, but I prefer this chick's body. I have a feeling they're both gonna go Kirsty Alley on us in a decade or so, though.

They're not, because Lackey has been very good this year. He doesn't have the best stuff (Martinez does), but he's a veteran with a mountain of experience and he's still got plenty of gas left in the tank. He's the "safe" choice.

Although I think Chappee is right, the Cardinals should totally start Kershaw instead. IDK why they are choosing Lackey over Kershaw, to be honest.


You are late here, villain. Lackey is the bestest! His resume states that he's a better game 1 starter than Price and Kershaw. At least that is what Slinky says. I disagree.

Actually, it seems that villain read the thread. You should probably have somebody do that for you and explain it.

So are the Cardinals fucked or not?

Great game going on here. Unfortunate that Cole "handy" Hamels is off the hook.

A bullshit rating... That almost hurts my feeling.

What a petty little twat you are.

Yes. The Cardinals are fucked. That team was built for the marathon, but not a short series.
I think their bullpen may come in very handy in a short series. A major strength for sure.

Well then you need to learn how to read a fucking resume. The numbers don't lie. Lackey has been better. A resume tells you about the past. Lackey has a better playoff resume than Kershaw or Price. Ample empirical evidence confirms that.

Would I choose Lackey over Kershaw or Price? Hell no. Did Slinky say he would? No, he did not.

All Slinky was doing was defending the Cardinals choice. He was just pouring a little water on your "OMG STL WORST GAME 1 STARTER'" sandwich.

I wouldn't want to face Arietta twice in a five game series right now.
True dat. Unlike the Cards, I would be very concerned with the Cubs pen however (when Arietta doesn't pitch) Especially lacking lefties.

Nice to have Wainwright back, for sure. If he's able to give them multiple innings, that is quite a weapon. I still like the Cubs to win it.

Wait, I may be thinking of the Mets pen in regards to a shortage of lefties. Either way, the Card's pen is money.
