The 2008 off-season

by PH8 on October 2, 2008 · 4 comments

Well, the Cardinals of course had to go and win the last six games of 2008.  They finally put together a sweep of a team that they should’ve been putting away all season long.  Of course, it was too little too late, and the Redbirds are making tee times.

All that aside, that doesn’t mean that the beat stops until next season.

We plan on keeping up with the Cards during the off-season, down to trades, signings, releases, and everything in between.

We’ll take part in some off-season round tables, put together some (very opinionated) lists of anything and all things Cardinals, and hopefully get in touch with some authorities on subjects Cardinals that will provide some further insight and intelligence than yours truly can provide.

Thanks for reading so far.  I think we’re just going to get better.

I’m all for some hot stove league talk!

I’m hoping for swift and decisive moves from the Cards this year. The Lohse move was a good start.

Sounds like they’ve now signed Dave Duncan to a one year deal, so another step in the right direction if you ask me.

Agreed. Definitely agreed. Dunc wanted to get back “on schedule” with LaRussa, which appears to be the result of this contract, with a mutual option for ’10. Methinks that once Tony rides off into the sunset, Dunc may well follow him.

Next order of business – sign Felipe Lopez.
