I hope all our batters behave in a way that is acceptable to Madison Bumgarner. Otherwise he will be forced to pretend for the 300th time that he's really going to right someone for real.

Maybe it could be like Mother May I that we used to play on the schoolyard. "Madison, may I smile, as long as no teeth are bare, and not exactly pump my fist, but hold it in such a way that it appears to nearly be pumping as a I round first?"

Wacha did great last time I talked a bunch of mess, so.. WACHA IS HOT GARBAGE, AND HE EATS GLUTENS.

Isn't Ponce de Leon also available to use?

This screams bullpen start. Wacha in for one time through order then bring in the long guys.

Ponce started Sunday.

For all intents and purposes this is a bullpen start. Wacha is essentially being used as an opener.

Considering that Wacha isn't likely to get any postseason starts how many starts does he have left in his Cardinals career?

Can we just send McCarver to a farm upstate? So far he's talked about the great play by Tommy Edmonds and mentioned that Jeremy Affleck was a big part of the Giants WS teams.
