Duncan = Best pitching coach in the league

I've never seen a guy that's been able to fix the mechanics and the heads of pitchers who had been cannon fodder for their prior teams. Jeff Weaver, Lohse, Pinerio, etc all these guys were garbage before they went to St. Louis and in Weaver's case afterwards as well and Duncan has been able to make Lohse and Pinerio into early Cy Young candidates. If only the Yankees could buy him away from St. Louis...

C.C. has been garbage and is giving up a ton of walks and runs cuz he can't control his fastball. Tex has been ok but he's been hurt so I think he'll be fine. Burnett and Swisher look like our best acquisitions so far though.

Thank GOD someone outside of St. Louis can finally see this.

Do you see what we're doing with guys like Todd Wellemeyer, Kyle Lohse, Joel Piniero..and in the past Marquis, Weaver, etc.

He's been making something out of nothing for a while now which allows us to keep $$$ going to our solid lineup. (Pujols, Ludwick, Ankiel, Schumaker, Ducan, etc)
