Cardinal70, proprietor of C70 at the Bat had the final question in the United Cardinal Bloggers’ Roundtable series. C70 asked us which young player in MLB (fewer than three years service time) we would love to have with the Cardinals. Check out the answers over at C70! Thanks to all who have been keeping tabs [...]

Cruise over to SMS [...]
Daniel over at Redbirds Fun posted his Roundtable question regarding the {{bbref|p/peavyja|Jake Peavy}} SweepstakesTM. I’ve obviously (if you read the transcript) taken a strong position on this issue that may be unpopular with most Card fans, including some of you loyal readers here, all three of you. Check out Daniel’s setup over there at Redbirds [...]

Pip at Fungoes brought up one of the more interesting topics of the round, wanting input on the ‘fan experience’ at Busch III. [...]
A couple more of the United Cardinal Bloggers’ Roundtable questions have been posted. Check out my witty retorts at: Cardinal Nation Globe – A great question about the recently passed George Kissell and ‘The Cardinal Way’ The Rundown – Giving the business to Mozeliak about making some moves to shore up the team I’m due [...]
Why, you ask? Because I just read two statements that make me cringe in the same article about the procedure {{bbref|p/pujolal|Albert Pujols}} had on his elbow today. The first: Pujols has elbow surgery Ok, not terribly surprising – and it sounds like it was a lesser surgery, one intended to minimize down time for El [...]
