Man I think Saturday is kinda like a must win for the Red Sox as well imo. Verlander this playoffs has been something else. He gave up no runs to Oakland in both games he pitched that series and aside from the Napoli home run he shut the Red Sox out in game 3.

Scherzer is a great pitcher as well and beating him will be a huge task in its own right but I think he's the easier of the 2 this playoffs. Looking forward to that game and hopefully a dodgers cards game 7 Saturday night.
 
Jose Abreu to the White Sox. Six years, $68 million.

That's a lot of money for him I think. He's no Puig or Cespedes. But at least he'll take over for Konerko right away. IDK, seems a bit much.

Dumb *** Astros bid $55 million with Singleton having such a year this season. Dopes :lol:
 
scott van slyke and joe kelly with the standoff to delay the gm. :lol:
only in baseball you see something new every time
 
lol loving every minute of this. :D

You take the L with your ace on the mound, what can you say, you went with your best option and he couldn't get the job done tonight.

This game didn't lose them the series though. You hold a team like the cardinals to 3 runs combined over 2 games and come home emptyhanded and give yourself that harder of an uphill battle.

Welp looks like a rematch of 04 or 06 in the making.
 
Maybe next year Dodgers.....

Wacha 90k a year..... Kershaw 33mil!

You can't buy greatness....

LETS GO CARDS!!!!! :smokin
 
Cant help but respect what the cardinals organization has done. Every year they are contending deep into the playoffs and they do it with a roster full of homegrown players. Not to mention one of the classiest fanbases in all of baseball.
 
Just wait until Kolten Wong is ready and unleashed.

STL suffers an embarrassment of riches. We didn't even see Shelby Miller featured as a SP. He's going to be better than Lynn and Kelly.
 
and yet it's nearly half of the dodgers.




Cards feature what 17 homegrown players? :smokin

No doubt, LA definitely worse but it isn't like the Cards are rolling with a tiny payroll. But they utilize their money on their own players which is cool. As far as the fans...I can't really quantify or judge something so subjective as fan behavior. But definitely never had a problem the games I've been to in StL.


The way the Dodgers have hit this series maybe the Pirates would've had a shot had they made it here...?:smh:
