Not many DPs

Are started by the first baseman, period.

I think that Pujos had around 20 last year.

by foulpole on May 4, 2008 7:20 PM EDT up reply actions  

I can't find any at all

I just looked at the 320 outs allowed by the Cardinals with anyone on base, and found no cases where a double-play was started by the first baseman.

by Jim McLennan on May 4, 2008 7:25 PM EDT up reply actions  

According to THT Pujols had 21 in ‘05, 18 in ‘06 and 30 in ‘07. According to the same souce, CJ had 1 in ‘07.

I believe that the only one he had last year. I think it was in August vs. the Dodgers, maybe.

He doesn't throw well

That is why he moved from 3B to LF to 1B in the minors. Not the end of the world for a 1B, as long as he hits you can forgive his shortcomings throwing

Obscure thought...

If Qualls does get out without allowing an earned run, and the Mets shut us out in the ninth, he’ll be 0-2 with a 0.00 ERA…

Until he went from being

a useful role player to “the face of the franchise”.

He should not be playing without the one part of his game that makes him good – his speed. But for god knows why this team thinks that he’s so irreplaceable that they need his bat in the lineup every single day.

I still wish Webb would have gone Fri., Haren on Sat. and then Owings today and would have come away with 2 wins.
