A friend posted this on my FB wall, and it pretty much sums up everyone's feelings. The gray, bleak wall of knowledge that this is our tradeoff for having the Cardinals as our team.

It would be cool if Intentional Walks put the batter at 2B instead of 1B.

Another reason why mlb.tv is awesome. Though really McCarver is par for the course for Fox Sports Midwest guys imo.

So, what's the chances we lose both Waino and Wacha because of some crazy circumstances that lead them to bad outings? It would be pretty much par for this season in the MLB

Josh Harrison visibly playing hurt. Can't wait for the Mercer/Barmes everyday MIF for two weeks.

Well, we say that now but in two days we'll learn that all of their bones were somehow replaced with eels and they'll be out a season.

Eels are incredibly scrappy though look how much poo poo they get done even though they don't have bones or whatever

I've seen games go perfect for 12 innings all for naught. I've seen no-hitters pitched on illicit drugs. Homer streaks lasting eight games and 20 run losses. I've seen pennants won and seasons collapse. All these memories will be lost in time. Like tears in the rain.

Time to die.
Ok, what kind of hilarious baserunning antics will Marte perform tonight?

I'm hearing an "over-rated" chant going with Lyle "Over-Rated" Overbay at the plate.

I know we don't talk a lot about intangibles here but I give the kid credit for busting his rear end every night this season and doing what he did since he's been starting.

Second walkoff hit as a Phillie in a pretty short while. Is this one of those grit/hustle things?

Turns out, if you hack wildly at everything low in the zone, occasionally you golf one into the fifth row.
