Dan McLaughlin to return for 15th season

[quote:b29ad14691="chevyman58"][quote:b29ad14691="MillerTime"]I always liked Dan as an announcer so I am glad he did all the things that he needed to in order to get his life in order which showed FSN that he deserves another shot. Now if there was a way to get rid of the Mad Hungarian I would be thrilled :lol:[/quote:b29ad14691]
I absolutely love Hrabosky. Him & Dan together are the best we've got IMO.[/quote:b29ad14691]
If thats the best we've got then I am quite disappointed :D [48 total replies]

Cardinal Over/Unders - 2012
|

Little surprised to see a few people already thinking Waino will get over 200 IP. Not typical for a TJ recovery to do that in his first year. I think 185 IP would be optimistic. Regardless...

Albert Pujols Westport Grille
|
|
[i:2187c3cf02]The restaurant was formerly known as Patrick's, named after owner Patrick Hanon, but [b:2187c3cf02]it was changed to Pujols 5 in 2006 after a licensing agreement in which Pujols lent his name to the restaurant in exchange for 5% of restaurant profits being donated to his foundation,[/b:2187c3cf02] which primarily supports children with Down syndrome and poor families in the Dominican Republic.
But business at Pujols 5 has slowed since Pujols signed with the Angels, and Dan Lozano, Pujols' agent, said "it didn't make sense" for Hanon to continue his relationship with the slugger.
The restaurant will retain its sports theme, but [b:2187c3cf02]all Pujols-related items have been removed from the menu.[/b:2187c3cf02][/i:2187c3cf02] [15 total replies]

Report: Cards, Roy Oswalt "closing in" on deal
|
|
I think the starters can put up 70 wins with or without Oswalt in the rotation.
Let's say the Cardinal starters put up the following numbers......
Wainwright - 17 Wins
Carpenter - 16
Garcia - 16
Lohse - 14
Westbrook - 12
That's 75 Wins - an easily reachable figure.
I think the starters can log 1000 IP with or without Oswalt in the rotation.....
Wainwright - 190 IP
Carpenter - 235
Garcia - 205
Lohse - 200
Westbrook - 180
That's 1010 IP - also an easily reachable figure.
The Cardinal starters can be the innings eating beasts they were in 2004 and 2005 with or without Oswalt in the rotation. [121 total replies]

Toughest team for Cards this year?
|
|
Still time to go, but the Braves are my first glance pick to win the NLCS this year. They are young and good. If Heyward bounces back, they are going to be incredible. Plus they have a good young shortstop coming up who I've read could very well be this year's Heyward or Freeman. That is a good young core of players with a young and very good pitching staff that has enough talent to stack up with Phils.
Bottom line, the Braves get better every year and if not for key injuries the last two years, were poised for deep October runs. Meanwhile the Phillies are getting older.
I've got the Braves winning the NL East, Cardinals in the NL Central, and the Giants in the NL West. Dbacks and Phillies up for the Wild Card, or potential Wild Cards.
Marlins need a 20 game improvement over last year to just knock on the door to the playoffs. I just don't see that happening. The Nats could surprise, a year of Strasburg makes them better, but I see them missing out on the wild card. [18 total replies]

2012 Quad Cities River Bandits (A)
|
|
DAVENPORT, IA (JANUARY 12, 2012) The Quad Cities River Bandits are offering fans a special opportunity for Valentines Day. Rascal will venture throughout the region to deliver Valentines on February 13th and 14th.
Rascals Sweetheart Special is the perfect way to show your special someone how much you care, and River Bandits tickets are a great way to make sure your Valentine has a really fun, special day to look forward to, said team owner Dave Heller. When Rascal shows up at your house or office, everyone will know somebody thinks you are really special!
Rascal will be available for personal Valentines deliveries to Quad Cities residents within 25 miles of Modern Woodmen Park. The Valentines are $30 each, and include one of three different gift packages for the recipient.
Two packages each include two Lower Box seat vouchers for any 2012 game. The first consists of the tickets and a River Bandits cap. The second package is slightly more elaborate; fans get the two tickets along with a carnation arrangement and pink logo baseball. The third package includes a 2012 Kids Club membership and assorted candy.
Packages are in short supply, and available only to the first 25 interested fans to call the River Bandits box office. Those interested should call 563-333-2736 and ask for Whitney.
UP NEXT: Its not too early to lock-in season ticket and mini-plan packages for the 2012 season as the River Bandits defend their Midwest League Championship. Mini-plans start at just 10 games and begin at less than $60. Call a River Bandits account representative today to choose your seats and get details of our various mini-plan packages.
ABOUT THE BANDITS: After four years of ballpark improvements, the River Bandits and the City of Davenport last summer unveiled some of the most impressive enhancements to Modern Woodmen Park yet. A brand new, state of the art, high definition 20 x 35 video board went live on June 7 and the newly enclosed glass Sky Deck on the suite level of Modern Woodmen Park was completed last August. Those improvements, in addition to new flood protection, a new front plaza, and a new parking lot directly across the street from the ballpark, are quickly making Modern Woodmen Park one of the premier facilities in all of Minor League Baseball. More improvements are scheduled for this coming season! [4 total replies]
