All Star Game

Well, at least we can be proud of OUR GUYS!! Lance, with his RBI; Miggy with his run around the bases and run scored--not to mention that superb bases-loaded sideways spectacular throw to first! Hopefully this means we get the old Miggy back. He sure wasn't playing like that for us at the break!

Still don't completely understand how neither of the top 2 RBI leaders in the NL don't make it to the All-Star Game. The NL sure could have used a little help from Howard and Carlos! Too bad Hurdle went with Wright as the replacement instead...

Is there something going on with Angel Campos?

Working with a native of Wisconsin, I get to hear a lot about the Brewers (which is funny because this individual was VERY Quiet prior to last year).  Watching the game last night with a little extra zeal, based on the opponent, I had an epiphany.  What's up with Angel Campos?

I am older, and have slept since then, so I need help.  In Colorado last year, Berkman was thrown out for saying "no way" to a called strike on his check swing.  The ump, wasn't it Campos?  And didn't we get the short end of a couple of calls in that series.  It was later in the year, and we were out of it, but still.

Cooper starts bench vs. Cards...

Astros score 6 runs. Point proven.

Even though only 3 of those runs were earned, it at least proves that "The Wise Men" have really good karma.

Unfortunately, if his "strategy" is anything like Phil's was, Saturday we'll be seeing Wednesday's lineup again. Let's hope Coop can take a hint.
