2011 World Series: Rangers @ Cardinals

[Reck]

Can you elaborate on how this is, well, logical at all. Or something. Because as it stands, you've got no substantiation to why the Cards are "too hot". When there's evidence brought to light that says teams that were smoking hot coming into the WS have lost before, you just disregard it. This is just textbook nonsense.

 

You could just say you're going out on a limb, but don't lie and try to make it sound rational.

 

Is it in your DNA to argue on every post you make here?

 

If this is how you are here I can only imagine how arguemental you are in real life. For god Sakes Emmz..

 

Just for the sake of being clear to my point I'll elaborate more on my point and use yours and Whiskey's against yours.

 

You two said the Rockies were also a hot team coming into the WS or whatever and then proceded to get swept by Boston.

 

I said not all teams follow the same trend and that has been proven by the Cardinals last night's win and tonight's perfomance.

 

They keep winning. That's just not being hot. That's matching up pretty damn good with a team that's supposed to blow their doors off.

 

Good night dear.

NICE win for the Rangers!! 2-1!!

[a700hitter]

It's all tied at 1 game apiece. The difference in this Series could end up being the bullpens-- advantage Texas. Otherwise the teams match-up very well.

[SoxSport]

I predicted the hot Cardinals in 6, but their luck seems to be running out in the 9th in the game 2.

A couple of scratch hits, a stolen base and a sac fly. Tie game. Another sac fly. 2-1 Rangers.

 

Cardinals up in 9th. Feliz throwing 99. Walk. The next guy tries to bunt two balls up around his head, then strikes out on a ball. The next guy strikes out on another bad pitch low and inside. Poor at bats.

Next guy flies out. Feliz couldn't find the strike zone the first 3 batters, but the Cardinals helped him.

 

The Rangers now have the advantage in the Series.

[Dojji]

Some very interesting baseball in this series. Lovers of high strategy and close games should e happy so far.

[Flynnatic10]

I want the Cards to win, but I won't be mad if the Rangers win.

As I've admitted in previous posts, I'm only watching baseball this season, so I know my opinion counts for little

 

But I have to say I would much rather the cardinals beat Texas ass they seem a lot more aggressive and generally more exciting to watch

 

That's just my 2 cents worth

their the most boring team to watch aside from Pujols,

Larussa with his 21378523405239147534 pitching changes per game is painfull to watch .

 

I'll have to give him credit though, as until last game he made all the right move .

 

Although I think he f***ed up big time last game by giving a quick hook to mott , especially after 2 cheap singles allowed.

[example1]

I wish the Sox would overpay and get Yadier Molina when the Cards lose Pujols and LaRussa after this season (maybe). He's such a rock behind the plate and actually good defensively.

What makes you thing (maybe) LaRussa would be gone?

 

This is another good game and different from the first two. Lots of hits/runs.

[example1]

I don't know... he's got rolling mutual options. They may be losing Pujols. You never know.

 

In any case, Molina is the catcher I like watching most in the game. He's just really solid.

No kidding.

 

Pujols nor LaRussa are going anywhere.

 

Back on topic..

 

Is there another team in the MLB world that gets more complacent then the Cardinals? Oh look we have a 5-0 run, lets relax because we're playing ahead and we cant lose. Bunch of rookies.

 

Also, what was fattie thinking running on Molina. LOL

[jung]

Yadi is way more than solid....he is an awesome defensive catcher.

It wasn't Napoli's choice, he was sent.

 

Example1 never went off topic fyi.

I got your point, it wasn't lost in your East Coastanese it's just a stupid argument. Your argument has zilch rationale behind it. You're pretty much just saying "I got a feelin'", but you're too argumentative yourself to admit that you're just going out on a limb. You want to split hairs because a couple of people called you out on it.

[Reck]

Anything that goes off Cardinals vs Rangers game 3 talk is going off topic. Not that I care if he did or not.

 

I was talking about myself when I said Pujols or LaRussa weren't going to leave St. Louis.

Molina catches for the Cards. The Cards are in the WS. He's a good defensive catcher. Had some good plays in tonight's game. He commented that he wouldn't mind the Red Sox overpaying for him once Pujols and LaRussa (maybe) were gone. It's pretty clear Pujols could/will be gone. I was curious as to why he thought LaRussa might be gone as well. Not off topic IMO.

 

Rangers striking back. Keep it up! I'll never make it until the end of this game.

What makes you think Pujols leaves? There aren't a lot of teams that can afford to throw 200-300 million dollar contracts out there, and most of them already have a first basemen.

Anytime you involve a third team on a dedicated thread that's not about that certain team (Red Sox) and talk about trading it becomes off topic stuff.

 

Anyway, why are we still talking about it? lol

 

Geez, these Cards team makes me pull out my hair. No realible pitchers at all.

He could DH in the AL. Don't the NYY need a DH?

[Reck]

The Yanks are gonna pay Pujols 200+ millions bucks just to DH? That's madness.

[VA Sox Fan]

Dammit Texas quit leaving so many on base!

[Reck]

Rangers made 2 comebacks. I think they used all their magic.

 

Cardinals are RBI drunk tonight.

[User Name]

It's a bad omen for the Rangers that their BP has shown so many cracks tonight.

[VA Sox Fan]

Pujols...wow!

[Reck]

Completely and utterly owned by the Cards tonight.

 

There is reason #15120221200215121110000000000 that the Card will retain Pujols.

 

Rangers in 5. LOL

[Reck]

Rangers fans are pathetic.

[User Name]

I tend to agree with the idea that Pujols will remain a Cardinal, but you never know.

[Cocos Disciples]

Albert Pujols is really, really good at baseball. 3 HR tonight.
