If you are interested in a time-consuming yet meaningless exercise involving baseball and geeky numbers, then you have come to the right place. If you are interested in silly Photoshop artwork involving baseball players, media members, and sometimes farm animals, you have also come to the right place. For the latter, you may need to […]

Reading a couple of posts over at STLCardinalBaseball this weekend led me into a bit of a debate with Ray over whether the Cardinals routinely pay market value for their players or not. Spurred on by the ongoing discussions about what market value may look like for one Yadier Molina, Ray took a look at […]

Just about everyone in Cardinal Nation has had plenty of time to become acquainted with the latest flapdoodle involving Skip Schumaker’s latest baseball card from Topps.
