Let me begin with a huge disclaimer, because I like disclaimers a lot. The Reds are presently constructed a lot like I would like to see the Cardinals put together right now. They have a lot of speed and power in the right places, defend well, and they appear to have just enough pitching to […]

As the Reds prepare to host the Cardinals this weekend, I thought it might be necessary to help the host team out with a few friendly suggestions about how to stay hospitable and maintain the highest level of decorum they can muster. Don’t do “The Wave”. It’s pathetic in any stadium, and it just looks […]

Maybe Ryan Theriot‘s current line of .287/.341/.320/.661 isn’t really that far off of his career line of .284/.348/.354/.702, but I’m beginning to question whether or not he’s the right guy at the leadoff spot for the Cardinals. More pointedly, I’m questioning whether or not he’s the right guy at that spot on a full-time basis. […]

This is about the Albert Pujols contract extension, but yet in a way it is. The decision to avoid negotiations during the season handcuffs the team, and it certainly works against the best interests of the Cardinals. Disagree? The Cardinals are leading a very competitive (if highly suspect) NL Central by 1 game at this point. What […]

He can hit a grand slam with nobody on base. He once hit a ground-rule triple. He made Chuck Norris cry during a game of rock-paper-scissors. He calls his own balls and strikes, and nobody complains. He signs huge contracts just to make his agent look good. He once bruised Yadier Molina‘s ribs with a friendly […]

That’s right. It’s another of our world famous giveaways. That’s where we do something really complicated to give away something to one of our 3 loyal readers. Alternatively, we do something really, really simple to give something away to someone who isn’t one of our 3 loyal readers. I reviewed the Fantasy Sports Coach app […]

No, not THOSE digits. I want the other ones….the attendance figures. Why? Just curious. After watching several games, I couldn’t help but feel like the numbers were just a little low. Was I wrong, or was there a shortage of live bodies in the seats? (NOTE: I’m in no way implying that there were anything […]

It’s an odd thing to say about a guy who is 4-0 with a 3.23 ERA, isn’t it? Then again, this is the first time Kyle McClellan has to bounce back after a rough outing as a starter at the highest level, and it will be very interesting to see how he handles it. It’s not […]

Yep, my soapbox is bigger than yours is, because it has to be sturdy. I like to eat 8 lb burritos with a spork while I’m standing on my soapbox, so prepare yourselves. It’s about to get ugly up in here. WARNING: A rant is about to take place. I’m sick and tired of people […]
