who cares that no one had them getting by St Louis. That is the past. This is gonna be a tough series. I say it goes 6 or 7 games and I wont predict a winner.
Chuck, the Colorado series was a LOT tougher after game one. We got a lil lucky there being able to crush Street like that. That and our batters are SO clutch. I'm hoping Manuel goes back to remembering how to coach, because it seemed to me like he coached a poor series with all the crazy pitching changes. Why the F do you take Cliff Lee out in the 8th last night? He was destroying the Rockies. It wasnt his fault there were runners on 1 & 2nd with 1 out, he got Helton to hit into a double play and Rollins errored. The inning should have either been over or a guy on 1st with 2 outs. And Charlie takes Lee out and Madson has a meltdown. How much you wanna bet if Charlie left Lee in that we would have got out of the inning without giving up any runs?
Happy for Lidge but I will not trust him at all for the remainder of his games. Glad his slider is working again though.
And no offense gales and Scuds, but I dont worry too much about Hamels when he is facing the Dodgers. He always pitches well against them and earlier this year I'm pretty sure he threw a complete game shutout against LA.. his best pitching performance of the year.
