If you have to ask, you probably can’t afford it. You’ve probably all heard this line at one time or another. It’s usually said in jest, but there are indeed times when it is completely appropriate and sadly true. Consider the case of the Pagani Zonda or the Bugatti Veyron. What are those? If you […]

This post is most certainly about Werth versus Holliday, but there is a bit of business to tend to first. Based on what little I’ve read about Cliff Lee‘s agent, Darek Braunecker, I suspect that he’s about as useful as a box of rocks. That’s not to say that he isn’t a good agent. He could be the greatest agent […]

After the news broke that the Padres and Red Sox had worked out a trade involving Adrian Gonzalez, I could’ve sworn I heard a collective sigh from Cardinal Nation. The commonly held belief is that since the Red Sox now have a stud first baseman, they will no longer be interested in Pujols when he […]

Obviously, there must be a huge pile of money located near a ledge somewhere, because this would logically explain why so many Cardinals fans had to be asked to back away from ledges yesterday. I’m kidding of course, and the “ledges” weren’t real. The only huge pile of money involved was the one the Cardinals’ […]

This isn’t a snarky post about the Cubs, and I hope that everybody understands that my snide remarks are all in fun (except maybe for the ones about Zambrano). I do have an appreciation for the rivalry’s history, and I rank it right up there with Celtics – Lakers, Coke – Pepsi, ND – USC, and Red […]

I usually visit the #stlcards tweets a few times a week to see what exactly the rest of the Cardinal nation tweeps have on their minds, and I frequently find someone amusing to follow in the process. If you are interested, please feel free to check out the list of people I follow. Occasionally, a topic […]

Since there seems to be some growing unrest in Cardinal nation about the contract status of one Albert Pujols, I thought it might be a good idea to survey the current free agent landscape for clues of what the future might bring. The present might be a poor predictor of the future, but that’s never […]

I can’t actually prove that former MLB commissioner Fay Vincent was actually abducted by aliens, but that’s the only explanation I have for his Wall Street Journal op-ed piece. If you haven’t read it, I’ll save you the 2 minutes by giving you a watered-down version in which I make fun of Fay’s idea. Somewhere […]

We won’t mention any names here, because that would be just plain wrong Josh. Absolutely wrong. However, someone on the PH8 team mentioned Ryan Theriot right before the deal went down. I’m not going on record as saying that anybody Josh had inside knowledge about this deal, but it seems a bit peculiar to me […]

No, I’m not advocating anything that involves combining a “hot stove” and a “shallow pool”. The title is intended to imply that the pool of free agents and potential trade targets is relatively thin during this hot stove season. I shouldn’t feel the need to explain that, but I do live in what I consider […]
