Post-conference yes. He was ot$ with his comments about Brewers pitching. Driving 2 of my 3 favorite Cardinals out of town and tons of roster mismanagement on his account doesn't really win me over though. Not intentionally intentionally throwing at Braun as a leadoff guy with no outs in a tie game late was p f stupid tho. So I guess love-hate emotionally maybe, but realistically he should be fired.

I mean you don't pitch inside around the neck. Keep that shit below the shoulders. Retaliation was in order, but I don't think that was the time because the Cards obviously needed to win this game.

Even knowing his propensity to do things like that, I was shocked he threw at Braun at the time he did. Of course the Brewers reverted back to 2006 and didn't score bases loaded no outs, but that's what happens with Betancourt-Lucroy-Kotsay coming up I guess.
Nonetheless it's hard to remember a time I watched an early August game so intensely. The next two months are going to be crazy.

Just read the transcript. So if the Brewers unintentionally hit their star (clearly not intentionally throwing it up that high, it was a breaking ball that didn't break) and TLR admits it wasn't intentional, it's okay to throw two right at the Brewers star? Of the many douchey things TLR says and does, acting like Pujols is some untouchable God is one of the most annoying. Being the best player in the league the last 10 years doesn't excuse you from getting thrown inside once in a while. There's no way Brewers pitchers intentionally throw high when going inside on him. He's so f*cking delusional.

They were going high in on him last night, and we've lost two people due to broken bones in the hand. He's right that you shouldn't throw way inside around shoulder height. I would be seriously pissed if we lost Pujols until the postseason because some team felt they needed to brush him back with shoulder pitches.
Maybe his average will get up to .260 by the end of it.
Zing
When I heard he had a hitting streak I thought maybe he was batting .260 at this point. He isn't walking that much to war rent a good reason to have an average like that,
I just saw that and was gonna post it myself. Pretty interesting story. I wonder if MLB will investigate at all.
Also, I just saw an interesting stat after Cliff Lee's HR last night. Jayson Werth is batting .224 and hits a homer every 31 at bats. Cliff Lee is batting .226 and hits one every 26.5 at bats.

Just wanted to stop in and say that it's depressing that the NFL thread has about 10x the activity of this one, even though it's a month from the regular season. Plus, pennant races are just starting to heat up.
