Current Cardinals
Remember NBA Jam? Whenever a player got going, put together a streak of baskets, was getting hot… you know where I’m going here. The game would spit out its famous line “HE’S HEATING UP!!!” Well, somewhat quietly, Albert Pujols has begun to (if not already has) put the opening slump of his 2011 season behind […]
UPDATE: Yes, I know this is now outdated, but I finally managed to beat the dang table below and make it work on the site, so now I have to post it. —- Can the Cardinals come back against the Nationals this afternoon? Mixed bag, and no real extensive experience among Cards hitters against John […]
Lance Berkman enjoyed hitting at Chase Field the last three nights. Made me wonder, as Puma appeared to enjoy a throwback series to times of great power and terrorizing opposing pitchers… how often has Berkman had a home run streak like the current one? Rk Strk Start End Games AB R H HR RBI BA […]
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 […]
For those of you who follow on Twitter, you know that I announced I was going to err on the side of “blinded optimism” for a while. At least one respondent argued that I had already gone crazy. Yet, as Tony La Russa is quick to inform us, the season is young. Matt Holliday returned […]

After scoring just 15 runs in the first 6 games of the season, it’s fairly safe to say that the Cardinals are not lighting anybody up on offense. With the Redbirds sitting at 2-4, I’m willing to look at the bright side of things for a moment, though. They’ve wasted two pretty good outings by […]
The rumors of Albert Pujols‘ demise have been greatly exaggerated (already). He may have another 700 plate appearances to compensate for his lousy opening day performance, and he does have a history of putting up decent numbers by season’s end. Despite the 0-everything from AP, the Cardinals still had the lead in the 9th with […]

It’s time that the little Napoleonic portion of my brain comes out to play a bit. Why? I’ve heard enough nonsense from the talking heads on television. If there is going to be absolute nonsense, then it might as well come from me, and it might as well be at least somewhat amusing. UNTRUTHS: 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 […]
This is one last desperate plea from Statler, Waldorf, and myself. Kyle McClellan joined the two Muppets in the back of the theater, but he doesn’t want to speak on his on behalf at this point. That’s fine. I’m bringing the heat and blathering enough for all 4 of us. We’ve got one simple message. Leave […]
