    Talk about the series here. Please no PBP in this thread. Unless otherwise noted all games are on CSN-H (for about 40% I guess).

    7-9 Bud Norris, RHP vs. Adam Wainwright, RHP 7:15

    7-10 Jordan Lyles, RHP vs. Shelby Miller, RHP 7:15

    Cardinals couldn't escape Bud.

    Would have been at the game today if not for work (my wife is visiting family in St. Louis, but I had to stay behind).

    I still remember when he gave up that 3 run homer in the NLCS and our offense getting shut down by Jeff Suppan. It was Sterling Hitchcock beating Randy Johnson all over again.

    Ugh. Pete Munro.

    On a team that started with Oswalt/Clemens/Pettitte/Miller, that was never supposed to happen.

    If that team had stayed healthy...

    i dont get why we didnt start clemens on 3 days rest then start oswalt on 3 days rest. i mean srsly that would've given us the best chance.

    Clemens was ancient. I thought it was the right choice (obviously worked out differently). Clemens/Oswalt combo against Jeff Suppan.

    Heck, I'd settle for Jason Lane.

    Or maybe even Derek Bell.

    No, not Derek Bell.

    bud isnt going to pull any A+ prospects because he still hasnt shown he can win on the road against a good team. i think its best to just hold onto him long term because i just dont see us receiving any major talent in return.
