And Joe Crede ends it on a 2-out, walk off Grand Slam.

Joe Crede remains a greasy douchebag.

He and sexy Alexei make a formidable 1-2 punch of the best pitcher and best overall player in Chicago.

Not to mention the future HOFer Quentin.

Brewers-Cards got rained out as well. It was at least in the 3rd inning with the Cards up 2-0 last I saw.

I'm not sure who to root for in that series.

The Brewers. They finished 7.5 games behind us with CC having one of the best few months runs in the history of pitching, and Ben Sheets pitching great ball, winning 13 games. Yes Rickie Weeks is finally hitting like everybody thought he would and Hoffman's an upgrade at closer, but I still don't see how they can really be a legitimate threat to us with their rotation being Gallardo, Bush, Looper, Parra, and Suppan.

Look at the Cards rotation though, it's worse, with a worse bullpen, and a worse lineup. I think the Brewers are way more of a threat than the Cards.

I don't think the Cardinals rotation is worse and neither is their lineup. They scored more runs than the Brewers last year and are doing the same this year.

I'm hoping for a meteor to strike Busch stadium, and the teams become AAA Milwaukee and AAA St. Louis.

Anyway, I think the point is that we shouldn't really care who wins. We're worlds more talented than either team, need to just focus on our own shit.

The rotation may be a push, but on paper, the Brewer's lineup is way better. Also, I will fart in your mouth.

I know you will.

Carpenter's rehabbing well and is expected back very soon. Odds are he'll just continue to get hurt, but he showed he's still plenty good enough if he can stay out there. He would make the Cardinals much more of a threat, but again, certainly can't count on him to stay healthy.

I'm not worried about either team at all. If they finish ahead of us, that just means we really fucked up or had a shitload of injuries.
