Polanco and Ruiz went a combined 3-36, Howard and Pence both posted sub .500 OPS’, and Roy Oswalt coughed up just as many runs as Cliff Lee.

Just wondering, did the Angels’ Rally Monkey ever get his/her own card?

Some things you gotta be born with.

But the really cool part about him is that he accepts it. He knows he cost the team the NLDS last year. And he will be more motivated than ever to not let it happen again. And once he puts on #33 down in Clearwater, all will be forgiven for game 2 of the NLDS…where he was handed a 4-0 lead in the 3rd inning and proceeded to give up 5 ER on 12 hits and 2 walks in 6+ innings. After going 17-8 with a 2.40 ERA, 1.027 WHIP in his previous 32 games…grrrrrrrrrrrrr

What are the odds?…

Nothing at all to do with the Cardinals putting solid Wood on the ball. LOL! Sorry Chris. I saw your post and just had to pick up where we left off last year. Please forgive me. I was truly joking.

I had that as a kid. I sold it to a card shop and I still regret it to this day.

(yeah, Cliffy…im still pretty bitter)

Apparently her boyfriend was captured rather fast, but she did a better job eluding them.

I mean… I’m a Target Field usher and I disapprove of field jumpers… or something. *glances back at Lance Berkman’s cute girl card*

After all, Chuck did mention something about hunting the damn varmints….

That’s not Schumaker’s card, it’s the squirrel’s card.

This one with the squirrel will be a short-printed variation.
