GDT 8/4/09-Cardinals (Piñeiro) at Mets (Santana) 6:10 CDT

[New Pagodi]

How is the rest of the Mets' bullpen?

No jinx, no jinx, no jinx.

[The Third Man]

Good news regardless is that K-Rod is definitely not going to be able to pitch tomorrow.

With the way he looks out there what's so good about that?

K-Rod has never scared me. Any closer that has control problems like him I never work myself up over facing.

Why did he take Ludwick out?

Now it's up to the bottom of our order vs. Krod.

Nice...who'd have thought?....what difference these trades had made.

[albertmvpujols]

Don't walk useless Angel Pagan...

[Cronos]

Little lackadaisical there, K-Mac...make the throw in time please.

[st.lewis11]

Way to battle back agianst Pagan, Kmac.

[The Third Man]

Why did he take Ludwick out?

I guess either way he doesn't plan on this game getting back around to a Ludwick at-bat.

[Felix The Cat]

Why did he take Ludwick out?

Probably because Ankiel is due up if we make it to extra innings.
