Chris Carpenter wasn’t his sharpest. Albert Pujols continued to smack the ball around the park, but didn’t deliver the big blows. The Cardinals put together six runs (it’s a serious number) against Pirates’ pitching, and moved one game ahead of the Chicago Cubs in the NL Central. Matt Holliday continued to rake, Mark DeRosa has […]

One year ago today, we were talking about an extended start from Joel Pineiro and what it meant for his status in the starting rotation during an up-and-down 2008 season. It is always entertaining to go back to these posts and see how things looked then. Particularly Chris Carpenter coming back soon, Chris Perez being […]

So while I was watching Albert Pujols pulverize a ball into the left-center field stands at Citi Field during the tenth inning of tonights Cards-Mets game, I took the time to put together a fancy new archives page.

We showed up on a couple other outposts in the blogosphere lately… MVN Outsider carried our Cardinals Trade Deadline Preview just a few hours before the big Matt Holliday trade. One of my favorite parts of that post? As protective as Cardinals management has been of their minor-league system, I can’t see them parting with […]

If you needed any more evidence to back up our prior assertion that Chris Duncan is one of the more polarizing players of recent Cardinal history, you need only read the wide variety and massive number of St Louis mainstream media pieces, blog posts, and message board threads on the Duncan-Julio Lugo trade. For every […]

The St Louis Cardinals’ newest infielder, Julio Lugo is expected to be at tonight’s game in Washington, a one-game makeup versus the usually hapless Nationals. Knowing Tony LaRussa’s tendency to throw players into the mix early on, we wouldn’t be surprised to see Lugo’s name on the lineup card right away. In a bit of […]
