Aaaand Chris Carpenter is hurt!
Impressive. That only took two games and ten innings this year.

Goddammit.

1. Carpenter and Glavine.
Here I stand sadly posing two great reasons I love the DH rule in the American League.

Pitchers. Shouldn't. Bat.

2. This one isn't really close to season-threatening
but still. I'm sick of his fucking medical bills.


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

3. Not gonna stress about it.
Just a rib strain. It's not his arm, shoulder, etc.

4. Let's hope his reevaluation turns out fine
I remember they thought Woody Williams had one of those, and it ended up to be an oblique injury. We lost him for a good portion of the season.

For now, I'm just hoping we can hold on to this one.

5. I'm more shocked that Franklin actually saved a game last night.

6. Me too
We've had four closers thus far this year, and only one has blown it. We may have a fifth tonight.

7. Just in case, I'd like about 12 insurance runs.

8. Duncan, Ankiel, and Greene go down 1-2-3
And could you explain to me why Ryan Ludwick has sat out for three games??

I could've sworn he went .299/37/113 with 104 runs last year?

10. I dunno. Haven't heard anything about him being hurt.

Maybe the genius LaRussa wants Colby Rasmus' big bat in the lineup.

Edit - Motte and his 11.25 ERA can get on the plane to Memphis any day now.

11. Motte has settled down
Tonight's run was given up on a tough luck groundball by Reyes.

I think the Ludwick ordeal is La Russa overanalyzing. You do not sit one of the best players in the game.

I wish Kinney would stop screwing around with the bottom of the D-Backs lineup.

12. Ah, so the box score did not tell the whole story.
Live look-in at the game on MLB Network.

Fuck you, Kinney.

23. Not as smart as he thinks he is.
Interestingly, I thought he did a great job last year with a crap team. He's much better when there are no expectations.

24. Yep.
It's a shame we don't have an All-Star who is sitting his ass on the bench.

La Russa is stupid as hell.
