Yeah, but I am waiting to find out who brought the brooms.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

One team's sweeping the other, that much is clear. And we'd better be doing the sweeping, or the big lady behind the curtain will start warming up.

As well as MIL is playing against everyone else it will be tough to make up more than a couple games the rest of the way with no more head to heads. Hopefully Welly is on his A game because Sheets isn't going to make things easy.

I know what you are saying, but since there is nothing between us and Milwaukee they really can't knock us out for good. They can put us to the mat, dazed and confused, but we would be able to get up at the 9 count and fight on.

But, having said that, TLR needs to manage these two games as if we are down 3-2 in the World Series.

Swept by Brewers meant losing 4 games to them in the standings. The Brewers only gain games on the Birds during the KC sweep by winning their own games.

Depends on how worse is defined here I guess.

Let me clarify. I smell Cardinals sweep.

we've gotta win these games....

I have dreams of making the playoffs with a healthy Wainwright and Carpenter and meeting up with the Cubbies in the NLCS...

man oh man what a series that would be...

but that can't happen unless the Cards turn it on here...


Pujols looks to be doing his part, that's for sure...
I think he smells the playoffs, and that MVP trophy, and wants both...
he's going to try his best to carry this team the rest of the way...

Too bad Duncan is injured. He is 8-14 with 3 home runs and a triple against Sheets.

Cardinals, I have just one thing to say: Kick Their Asses into Oblivion.

Heeeeeeeeee's Hot!

Per the attached link, since we had no game yesterday, our odds of making the playoffs down 0.8% to 18.7%.
