Al says you had to send him there. ;-7
Albert is at his best hitting leadoff with no one on. ;-7
Because it's fun to watch fat people run. ;-7

Exactly, it's not like the fly was that deep. Stupid with the best hitter in baseball coming up.

I still don't trust the bullpen. I would rather give Albert the chance to bust the game open.

When Chris Carpenter is healthy, he's one of the best pitchers in this league. He could have a great season this year.

I still imagine sometimes what would have happened had Doc, Carpenter, and Escobar stayed healthy and fulfilled their potential. It would have been quite a rotation.

How about Carpenter, Darryl Kyle, and Rick Ankiel at their peaks at once? :-°

Watch how many people run out and pick up Reyes thinking he's the new Cardinal's closer.
