Minor League Cardinals
Today we take part in another United Cardinal Bloggers project, choosing a side of a debate topic to, well, debate with another member of the UCB blogging syndicate. My very worthy adversary today is Andrea over at Baseball Digest. We will be arguing politely discussing the merits of resigning center fielder Rick Ankiel at the […]

What a two game stretch for the Cardinals, eh? After flipping the switch on the typical bullpen story Tuesday night, the Cards were pretty dominant from wire-to-wire last night. Joel Pineiro was economical, efficient, and overall outstanding. He gave the bullpen some rest after lots of work Tuesday night, not to mention being short two […]

Days like today renew my interest in baseball. The Cards took a tough loss on the chin Saturday afternoon, they lost an opportunity to strike back yesterday because of weather, and today was a scheduled day off. I took the opportunity to listen to the Memphis Redbirds play in Oklahoma City versus the Redhawks. The […]

The Cardinals have made a move to bolster (???) their bullpen, in the wake of several rough outings for the season. Brian Barton, a Rule 5 draft selection a year ago, is headed to the Atlanta Braves for right-handed relief pitcher Blaine Boyer. Boyer hasn’t been a world-beater, but maybe Dave Duncan sees something he […]
With this unexpected two-day break in action for the Cardinals, how better to spend your time than catching up on odds and ends around the web – and then top it off with some minor league baseball? 1. A Cubs-based cemetery? Won’t it be filled up with all of the hopes of Cub fans and […]
I know, I know – here we go again. Many of you have no doubt read all of the things Tony has done wrong over at the STLToday.com Cards Talk forums. You know the routine over there – “the season is over,” “Tony must go,” “why didn’t they sign a closer?” – those type of […]

[Ed. note – today we have a guest post from Alex Eisenberg of Baseball-Intellect.com on Memphis relief pitcher Jess Todd. Todd is making the switch from starter to reliever in Memphis this season, and many believe he could be on the short list for a callup to St Louis at some point this season. Alex […]
Dear Tony: I have to pay for this domain name. It was based upon a promise you made a little over a year ago to strategically get Albert Pujols more at-bats while still getting him into the cleanup spot. I thought it so unique that I ran out and started this site. Now you’re reneging […]

[ Ed. note: As part of a spur of the moment “contest” of sorts, I offered up control of this webspace for a day to the first person to guess where the title of this post came from. Josh from over at Redbirds Row nailed it without even trying hard. Today, we feature a guest […]

Those of you listening to 1380 in St Louis today may find this duplicative, same if you read Bernie’s Press Box over at the STLToday forums. If you fit into neither of those groups, this may provide helpful for you. I listened to Bernie’s segment with Cardinals GM John Mozeliak this afternoon, and there were […]
