Agents
I’m not afraid to admit when I’m wrong, and I don’t have an issue with changing my opinion based on new information. Where the Albert Pujols contract extension/non-extension is concerned, there are no new facts or even decent speculation, but I’ve come to a new conclusion after some serious contemplation. I’ll admit that I was […]
“Don’t worry about a thing, ‘Cause every little thing gonna be all right.” ~Bob Marley (Three Little Birds) Leave it to Bob Marley to put it so eloquently. I’m not the official spokesperson for Cardinal Nation, but I think I speak for at least a small group of fans when I say “Kindly leave us the […]
On the morning of January 19th, I started collecting links – as many as I can find with minimal effort – that discuss the Albert Pujols contract discussions. Why? Who knows, yet here they are. Oh, and to serve you all, our three loyal readers! The Daily Pujols certainly won’t be a comprehensive list, but between […]

Somewhere hidden beneath the sticks of dynamite, giant rubber bands, and huge boulders in Dan Lozano’s car trunk there is probably an ACME brand “Sports Agent In-A-Box” kit. He probably has the at-home version as well. Judging by recent events, he’s probably dog-eared several pages in the chapter on “Conquering the Baseball World […]

Blame the guy who hired the messenger. I’m nearly the last person on Earth who would normally consider defending sports agents, because I don’t exactly consider them to be the last bastion of altruism. Agents represent clients. More precisely, agents attempt to represent their clients’ interests. They do a lot of other things such as […]
If you read the recent article here at PH8 about the YankiLeaks incident, you are probably already familiar with the dasterdly YankiLeaks organization which was responsible for helping create the “Abner Doubleday Agent-speak-to-English” translator. I previously used the machine to decipher the encoded communications passed between members of the Yankees organization and Jeter’s agent, Casey Close. […]
Introduction (aka a bunch of words at the top): An introduction is most certainly in order. I’m Dennis, but you may know me on Twitter as gr33nazn – owner of #ManFridge. I recently authored a post on my personal blog about why I’m not a baseball blogger, so naturally I’m now attempting to be a baseball […]

With the Cardinals playing turn-back-the-clock ball again, having signed former Cardinal Jeff Suppan to help stabilize the injury-riddled starting rotation, I got to thinking about Suppan’s plight and the “developmental prowess” of pitching coach Dave Duncan. By now, we’re all well-versed in the plight of Suppan – signed by the Cardinals on the cheap originally, […]
