stop the jinx

it seems that every time i write a post, we end a streak. since our streak is at one for the time being, it's an off-day, and we're going off to face the hardest nl competition available on tuesday, i fugured i should post (going by the theory that if we do lose tomorrow, it will be due to other factors).

some thoughts:

anthony reyes demotion is probably purely a business thing, but it doesn't sit too well with cardinal nation. i for one am not confident that mulder is going to be any better than he was before the dl stint, and if we find ourselves unable to make moves without clearing waivers on possibly important (next year: ie weaver) pitchers, i will be pissed off. however, that said, reyes is the only starter we can safely send to the minors without waivers, so i'm sure that's the thinking. if mulder gets shelled on his return, i will be calling for his head.

fat sidney isn't a yankee anymore. turns out, sometimes, one man's trash is another man's litter.

baby dunc. i still don't believe it's the real deal, but he's damn sure trying to prove me wrong. in this past series, he even looked pretty good in left field.

gollum has played some pretty decent (though fairly routine) short, and after watching yesterday, i actually think he might have a better arm that eck; either that, or eck intentionally throws to the dirt in front of first. i hope that they give eck ample time to rest and recover, possibly even dl him so our bench isn't entirely made up of injured guys.

we've won three of our last four series. i can live with that. if we keep playing at that level, there's no telling. especially if glavine and pedro are injured for the rest of the year, we might even make it to the series, though i don't think it will be a fruitful one if we do.
