It’s been a couple of weeks since I’ve chimed in with one of these – but I have plenty to say: FINALLY! Finally the Cards got a sweep. Not without their fair share of trouble getting there, but finally a sweep against a club that should’ve been swept. The club just wouldn’t quit this weekend. […]

It’s that wonderful time of the baseball season called the All-Star Break where, regardless of your team’s current position in the standings, discussion inevitably turns to what might happen in the post-season. Who’s going to be a free agent? What players are sure to be traded (perhaps even at this season’s deadline)? What are the […]

Well, I got up early this morning all prepared to lay some knowledge on you folks, when I discovered that (well, actually it was kind of forced down my throat) WordPress had released a new version overnight. So, instead of Cardinal goodness, the site got an update. I say ‘under the hood’ because most of […]
