Our banged up Birds are on fire...each player exceeding expectations.

Did you see Mabry the other night, Eckstein yesterday, Edmonds everyday.

Nunez playing well in multiple positions.

BTW, Carpenter is the real deal...Cy Young award winner this year, no doubt.

If the season ended today, no doubt. I hold my breath that the Cards sustain no more injuries. It would be a killer if Carp, or Mulder would go down. I would personally injure King if given a chance, even though he got the win yesterday. How's that for crap. Finally gets one out in relief and gets a win?

No doubt? Homerism baloney. And I say that as someone who believes that Carpenter is a complete class act (I know his aunt, a wonderful lady from a good family) and conversely don't like Clemens because of his attitude. But there is a huge difference between a 1.38 and a 2.26 ERA. Huge.

Like I said, I'm ok with Carpenter winning, but no way should he be a slam dunk or significant favorite. If anything Clemens should have the edge, all things considered.
