The Yadier Molina fan club will be in full effect at tonight and Saturday's games. OK maybe not in full effect Saturday cause it is a bachelor party.
Hey Pogo,
I'll be at tonight's game, too! I'll be up in the nosebleeds behind homeplate with my MasterCard Grand Slam package seats. That deals the best. Sixty-five bucks for 4 tickets, 4 hot dogs, 4 sodas, and 4 Cardinals visors.

Where are you going to be sitting?
Sounds like a sweet deal. I'll be sitting in the LF bleachers and dining on $1 pizzas at the Casino Queen before the game.
OK, the Cards lost but Molina is looking better and better. 1-4 with a couple of hard hit balls. Plus he picked off 2 runners last night. He needs to get better at blocking pitches and show some HR power but he is only 22.

Those two pick-offs were amazing. He seems to really be gaining some confidence in his arm. Did you see that throw to 3rd on a single (I think by Giles) in the 8th? Reggie overthrew King, and Yadier was backing it up. He double-clutched with the runner no more than 3 or 4 steps from 3rd, and he still threw it and almost nailed the guy.
After a horrible first month at the plate Yadier is looking much more comfortable batting and it is paying off. He has only played in 8 games this month because of his ankle but in those 8 games he is hitting .355.
