Haegermeister Continuation Thread

Six shots of Haegermeister was enough.  That 7th shot really stung, when Rick Ankiel broke everybody's heart with a home run that hasn't landed yet.   3-2 Cardinals, 7th inning stretch...

It's not like Haeger's been overworking

He’s at 80 pitches. It’s still technically a quality outing. And honestly, how much did we expect of him today?

He’s pitched well

by shoothoop on Aug 17, 2009 8:46 PM PDT up reply actions  

He gave up 3 runs in 7 innings

that’s an excellent outing from him as far as I’m concerned.

by Michael White on Aug 17, 2009 8:47 PM PDT up reply actions  

7 innings, 3 runs. Can’t ask for much more than that. Let’s go Beardman, get us started.

yup

i was just thinking that… great start by haegar…

you cant blame this on joe torre…. haegar was cruising and hes supposed to be an innings eater

its not his fault the dodgers can only score 2 runs

Watching some of the knucklers in slo-mo shows a nice view of just how big and pancake like the catcher’s mitt is.

BTW - The Cardinals paid Carpenter

$20M for two years of recovering form injury.

by bhsportsguy on Aug 17, 2009 8:56 PM PDT reply actions  

But at least for the Cards, Carp gave 3 good years prior to being hurt and 1 good year so far after recovery.

true, just saying

the Cardinal still have two more years on his deal.

I don’t really fancy Ausmus, Slappy/Loretta, Furcal doing something v. Carp, but O Dog, Ethier, Manny v. Franklin could work
