We shouldn't be having to rely on Melecon to close games. The guy is washed up. AA should have traded for Vasquez. But he went for the guys he did. I love Luke and want his to succeed more than anyone but we can't trust the kid right now he is to up and down. Same goes for Newk can't trust him. Everyone knows I am a Snit apologist but usi g Jackson in post season is bad call You mean the guy that just got arrested for touching kiddies?

I’d put him above Luke on the depth chart in the pen and take my chances, but I’m not going to hold my breath that will happen. Oh, I wasn't predicting that would happen. I had read on yahoo that it was confirmed ..just didn’t supply the link as I really felt most already knew this. Kinda thought it might be Blevins. And, for as effective as Max has been out of the pen, I would much rather see Fried on the mound in game 4 ...should we get that far....as opposed to Teheran. That’s what’s been reported by Mark Bowman, but it may be conjecture. Yeah I agree, I would have added Blevins and started Fried in game 4.

Which means we blew max Fried with his shut down stuff yesterday so we can see Julio pitch game 4. It’s 20/20 hindsight, but I’ve been saying it since he was pulled. I’d have rode him home. DeRosa said the same thing. That game was a must win, and max could’ve very well closed it out. I think Fried is fine to pitch game 4, they always throw a bullpen session between starts anyway, so physically he should be able to start on Monday. But Sargent Skidmarks will probably go with Julio because he loves Julio. I think Snitker planned to still use Fried for game 4 and that's why he only used him for one inning last night. Just because Julio is now on board shouldn't change the Fried plan in my opinion.

And let's not even begin to try to imagine what it would have cost us in pieces to trade for him, pieces that would just be lost now.

Time to stop dwelling on what went wrong yesterday and start focusing on what’s going to go wrong today ...

Time to stop dwelling on what went wrong yesterday and start focusing on what’s going to go wrong today ... Ok, let's start with Jack Flaherty.
But hopefully we pound him and can let the Cardinals fans be the ones flipping out tonight.
