Busch Stadium
After celebrating a very long but exciting day at Busch Stadium for the Blogger event, it became apparent that a tradition needed to be started here for our three loyal readers. The Cardinals put us up in some amazing digs and to honor that a new segment will be running every few weeks (or when […]
Yep, it felt good just to walk up to the stadium knowing that real baseball would be played inside it after the long, cruel winter. It also felt good knowing that there were plent of bathrooms inside said stadium since I’d been practically chugging water since leaving home that morning. With Lou Brock, Bob Gibson, […]

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.

When I talk about “making it right” of course, I’m talking about making it “Wainwright”. I’m talking about the 20-game winner with the 2.42 ERA in 2010 and one of the top 5 pitchers in the NL. He’s 6’7″ and 230 pounds of “aw heck”, and he darn well better be the guy standing on […]
If you’re Lance Berkman (and you’re probably not), the title is probably quite representative of what you get when you consume any kind of sports news content generated recently regarding “Big Puma” and the St. Louis Cardinals. Left field or right field. Which one should he play? Bernie Miklasz weighed in on the subject in his column, Bernie […]
I’ve read several columns lauding the Rangers for their classy celebration of their series clinching victory over the Tampa Rays. The celebration included a special shower for the team’s star outfielder and recovering substance addict, Josh Hamilton, that included Canada Dry ginger ale substituted for the usual champagne. The champagne was instead kept on ice while the […]
Trust me, there will be many, many blogs, articles, and sports segments dedicated solely to the pending free agency of one Jose Alberto Pujols. Rather than wait for the World Series to end to begin speculating, I want to begin the conversation right now. It’s not that the playoffs aren’t worth watching, it’s just that […]
I’ve never warmly embraced the end of MLB’s regular season, even when the Cardinals were headed to the playoffs. There’s just something about the end of the regular season that signals a change in the air. It’s the unofficial beginning of “true” fall for those of us who live in denial of what the modern Gregorian calendar indicates every […]
[Ed. note – Once again we are taking part in a United Cardinal Bloggers project. This month is the ever popular pre-season Roundtable discussions. You can find the full schedule of roundtable questions and posts at the UCB website. I wrote and sent out this question one week ago, the night before Baby PH8 was […]
