HAHA Pujols 23 HR's, the ENTIRE Giants lineup today combined 24 HR's. I can't who to take here Lowry is obviously the better pitcher but the Cardinals have a much better lineup today. Seeing Steve Finley hitting 3rd in a Major League lineup kills me.

Believe Finley leads the league in triples with 8. ATT Park in deep center/right is now referred to as Finley's alley. As for Lowry, he is normally solid, but Matheny is not calling today. Not sure if a game Lowry has pitched so far this year has been called by Greene. Good luck whatever you decide.

I really wish Felipe Alou would keep Finley in the #3 spot. He has to be the worst manager in the National League. I can't stand how he changes the batting order EVERY DAY. He never has the same batting order 2 days in a row. It is stupid.

The line has taken a major swing and SF is now +103.

St. Louis getting steamed...the line is now:

St. Louis -115/SF +107

Wow...

Think Dusty gets the award for worst manager. Felipe hands have been a bit tied with the injuries to Alou and Niekro and the return of Durham. I'm sure he'd like to have a steady line-up as well.

Even when healthy...he pulls the same crap. He says it is "just the way I do things". No one other than Barry, Winn, and Vizquel really have a known role in the lineup.

Really bothers me about this team...I can't stand Felipe Alou.

For what it's worth, the Giants starting pitching rotation has been performing very well in the last week and a half except for Morris last night. Lowry threw a gem against Oakland in his last start but lost 1-0. As a fan, I hope it continues. Best of luck to you.

Thank you very much, as the Giants cling to a one run lead in the bottom of the 5th. I am strung out into this game like "Hogans Goat". Line was moveing so fast i found myself with More SF than i really wanted. Ended up haveing to lay St Louis -20 to get off part of it...whew!! GO GIANTS !!
