Wrigley Field's wind robbed Marte of a homer. :(

I honestly believe that the Pirates have the worst base running in the league bar none.

We have a lineup with Wilson Betemit, Mark Reynolds and at times Jim Thome. Your statement is false.

I don't mind the Cardinals/Marlins trade. I really would of liked the Cardinals to get a starter so we could move Joe Kelly to the Pen, but if the Cardinals believe Kelly's arm can handle these innings come September then I have confidence in their decision.
Edward Mujica is nothing special but he can be an effective reliever and could really help the Cardinals in the middle innings. Zack Cox is an above average hitter with below average power (might hit 12-15 homers) and poor foot speed, plus with David Freese and the draft selections of Stephen Piscotty (who's pretty much the same player) Carson Kelly and Patrick Wisdom we have more than enough depth at 3B in our system.

I'm not talking about speed wise. I'm talking about being smart on the bases. Walker and Jones were on third base at the same damn time while Pedro was standing on second.

Yea Scott Rolen is not fast but he's one of the better base runners I've seen.

Don't worry Len Kasper mentions it every 5 seconds every time the situation comes up.

I love when AJ told the ump to **** off when he got that out in the 8th. I really wanted it. Still a great start.

If only Adrian Cardenas consider this maybe he would have struck out. Damn that Adrian Cardenas and not considering Hines' feelings.

The Tigers lost a game that ended with them having 2 outs and the bases loaded in the sixth inning. THANKS MLB OFFICIALS, THIS MAKES A TON OF SENSE.
