Cards give another one away tonight – luckily Houston is bailing them out so far # Brett Wallace promoted to AA Springfield today – Walrus is on the fast track # Waino says he’s ready – I say he throws a side Friday, then a start versus Milwaukee # Listening to Rooney & Shannon on [...]

John Mozeliak dishes the dirt

by Nick August 22, 2008

Cardinals General Manager John Mozeliak conducted a live chat via STLToday.com on Wednesday (it was apparently the second such appearance he’s made over there). I just saw it for the first time yesterday, and I have to say that I was surprised.  Not by the typical Cardinal organization ‘non-answer/generalizations’ like this one: Jason Winders: Greetings, [...]

Bob Watson has lost his mind

by Nick August 21, 2008

As I was watching Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Reds, watching the Cards squander another opportunity for a sweep, I saw something that I hadn’t seen from a Cardinal hurler all season.  I saw Kyle Lohse stick up for someone on his team.  Granted, it was himself he was sticking up for, but he showed [...]

Izzy Injured

by StLCards August 20, 2008

You’ve probably all heard by now that Jason Isringhausen‘s tenure as a Cardinal is likely coming to an end with the announcement of a torn flexor muscle and inflammation in his elbow. I had previously speculated that Izzy had an undisclosed injury so this announcement comes as no surprise. The question is again one of [...]

Redbird Tweets added to PHE

by Nick August 19, 2008

I’ve realized that very often, I have short little thoughts, almost stream-of-consciousness stuff usually – other times I just want to be able to have some of the latest and greatest news tidbits available on the site. I’ve been trying to come up with a way to incorporate these ‘quick hits’ into the site, and [...]

I knew I was right about Brad Thompson

by Nick August 18, 2008

Obviously it took someone far smarter than I to prove it (kudos to Fungoes for imparting the knowledge), but I knew Brad Thompson was more valuable to this Cardinal team than he has gotten credit for. I wrote about Thompson round-about three weeks ago, and his ability to roll with whatever role the Cards asked [...]

Sunday Spitballs – 08.17.08

by Nick August 17, 2008

I wish that just once this team would display some killer instinct and put a team away when they have a chance for a sweep.  Edinson Volquez was on today, no doubt, but the Cardinals had their chances.  Just winning series for the rest of the season isn’t going to get it done anymore – [...]

Quick observations

by Nick August 15, 2008

Chris Perez is starting to get ‘that look’ when he pitches.  Tonight, he seemed really pissed off that Brandon Phillips got that hit to left, and he took it out on Javier Valentin and Edwin Encarnacion.  The slider was working, the heater was working, the control seemed to be working.  CP63 has got it going [...]

Jarrod Washburn: Appearing at a stadium near you?

by Nick August 14, 2008

Apparently Jarrod Washburn has been informed by the Seattle Mariners that he was placed on waivers and some team has claimed him.  The claiming team has yet to be outed, but by waiver rules, the Mariners can work out a deal with the claiming team. Could we be seeing Washburn in a Cardinal uniform soon?  [...]

Barton to return sooner than later?

by Nick August 14, 2008

Brian Barton has rejoined the Cardinals, but is has not yet been activated. Technically, the Cardinals could keep him on the disabled list the rest of the season and retain his rights, after choosing him in this past off-season’s Rule 5 Draft.  While I doubt the Cardinal management would go that far just to keep [...]
