Vent thread for Thursday - idea from last season. This thread is only for today.

What is this guy doing in baseball ..

got one man out .. gave up 5 runs with people still on bases in 15 pitches

Todd Jones relieved Justin Speier.
Rolen singled to left center.
Martinez singled to right, Rolen to third.
Palmeiro singled to right, Rolen scored, Martinez to second.
Matheny reached on bunt single to pitcher, Martinez to third, Palmeiro to second.
Marrero safe at first on 3rd baseman Unknown?s fielding error, Martinez and Palmeiro scored, Matheny to third.
Vina lined out to shortstop.
Renteria singled to center, Matheny scored, Marrero to third.


Nice job u piece of xxxx .. sorry for the vent .. have had bad time with baseball with all these bad beats. Gonna stick with nba and nhl.

:thefinger :mad: :nono:

Colorado leading 4-2 going into the 8'th. Now losing 6-4 .. i will be damned if this guy has Cards.

Anyways .. mebbe they can still win but I just wanted to vent.

I didnt have a side, as I had the Under and am watching that crumble away miserably. Looks like Todd Jones did it to both of us

HERES TO YOU TODD

Chacon makes 300,000 ... Todd Jones makes 3,000,000 and comes in relief and fs things up.... What a joke... I feel sorry for Chacon.... pitched a decent game... Why do managers stay with guys who are obviously not on.... Hello!

why give Todd Jones only 15 pitches to give up 4 runs .. Just let him pitch another 20 pitches so that Cards can score another 5-8 runs.

I wish i had tried to play baseball as a kid. If useless fockers like these can get into the game and get paid so much [part tax payers money bcoz ya pay for the high price of tickets] then I would have a had a good chance also being left handed.

What is the manager thinking when a guy gives up 4 singles in a row .. that he is going to get someone out ????

and to whoever made the error .. :nono: .. ur a useless xxxx also ..

enuf venting.

feel like im the lone wolf on the cardinals but i really feel like colorado did some good damage control in the 8th.

6-4 with bases loaded and one out and edmonds and pujols coming up.

cards inability to push a sac fly at very least across might cost them the game.

6-5 now and i have no confidence in cards bullpen

I dont know who the Rockies manager is .. but why keep Todd Jones in there so long .. All the times i have seen him he always gives up 3-4 runs ..

why do they keep him there @ all ????

gman: send $50 to Todd Jones. Looks like Rockies were playing against Cards + Todd Jones. :eek:

sorry Hindsite on the under.

one thing i dont understand. If the guy has walked a person .. given up a home run to the next person .. then walked the third person ..

why would u swing @ the first pitch and fly out .. should u not wait it out ..

always wondered why people are not patient @ the plate.
