I thought we were supposed to try to win.
May 11th, 2012 at 11:44 pm
Why Livan and not Kimbrel?
May 11th, 2012 at 11:45 pm
WHY Fredi?
May 11th, 2012 at 11:46 pm
Fredi, your closer is your best pitcher out the pen. Use him.
May 11th, 2012 at 11:47 pm
Why not just limit Beltran to 1 base after he’s raked it all night?
May 11th, 2012 at 11:49 pm
Even Livan was surprised at himself.
May 11th, 2012 at 11:52 pm
I don’t think anyone was more surprised by that outcome than Livan.

Somebody tweeted:
“I’m still not convinced Livan isn’t a double agent for the rest of the NL East.” LOL

We will never make it to the 12th.
May 12th, 2012 at 12:16 am
Livan!
May 12th, 2012 at 12:20 am
Heyward!
May 12th, 2012 at 12:20 am
Eat alot and throw slow and you too can be a Major league pitcher.
May 12th, 2012 at 12:21 am
Pretty swing Jason.

My sister said someone got ejected earlier in the game. Anybody know who? Just got home from taking my daughter to Wicked. It was awesome by the way.
May 12th, 2012 at 12:23 am
Hinske got ejected
May 12th, 2012 at 12:24 am
#87 made me lol.
May 12th, 2012 at 12:32 am
Wow. Cannot believe that just happened. Feels good to beat the Cards and I hope we sweeeeeep!
May 12th, 2012 at 12:35 am
This game showed why Heyward may be our most valuable player after Chipper. The ground he covered in RF tonight was amazing. And then a 2-run game winning homer. VALUABLE.
May 12th, 2012 at 12:43 am
huge win

I’m with you all that you should brought out Kimbrel before Livan, but don’t you have more confidence in Livan after last night?
May 12th, 2012 at 8:21 am
More confidence in Livan doing what? Just kidding. Sure…although he seemed more surprised at Freese hitting into the DP than anybody. Gotta work on his poker face.
May 12th, 2012 at 9:18 am
Fredi definitely has found favor with God. Apparently he’s been helping lots of old ladies cross streets or something. He puts in Livan with Beltran, Craig and Molina due up; the Cardinals load the bases with one out; and Livan gets out of it.
Of course it works out, affirming to all the misguided out there that the way to go is to save your closer for a save situation in a road game that’s tied in the 9th inning or later.
There are probably, what, two managers that do not manage their bullpens this way?
I feel more confident with Livan in for an inning after the Braves have a lead than I do him pitching in a tie game.
May 12th, 2012 at 9:21 am
O’Flaherty didn’t pitch in his customary 7th-inning role. Maybe Fredi was planning to give him the night off but couldn’t considering the circumstances. Or has Medlen jumped over him in the bullpen depth chart?
May 12th, 2012 at 10:37 am
So my level of “dorkishness” is about to be revealed. I’m watching last night’s archived game. Did you guys see the spot on Luis Salazar before the game? Pretty amazing.
May 12th, 2012 at 1:55 pm
Oh Bryce Harper.
