i guess. it just seems silly. if your leadoff hitter is good at driving people in, put him somewhere else in the lineup and your 9 guy at leadoff. why is larussa the only manager to do this?

by Bond16 on Jun 29, 2009 5:56 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Because managers are scared for their jobs...

and if they change and the team goes into a slump, who do you think gets blamed? LaRussa has been doing it for long enough and has enough job security.

Also it has to do with making sure Pujols gets up 1st inning every game (see below).

is mike shannon one of them? I rather like him— he’s kooky and off the wall, but truly one of a kind and while he’s definitely pulling for the Cardinals he still calls ’em like he sees ’em. I lived in St. Louis for a long time, learned to hate most of the Cards announcers (esp. Jack and Joe Buck), but Shannon was ok.

Anyone catch those 3 NLCS games from 86 Mets vs Astros over the weekend on MLB Network?

What a great series that was….

Was pretty cool to see Gooden and Straw in their primes. The Gooden – Ryan Game 5 was fun to watch. Although Gooden went 10 innings, and it’s no wonder he starting having arm injuries before he hit 25.

Strawberry was ridiculous though. Really sad how far downhill he went.

Also was cool to see some other guys like Keith Hernandez (master with the glove) and Dykstra and all those other dudes again. The uniforms were fun too. Oh 1980’s!
