Michael Wacha talks about learning from Cardinal veterans on TexAgs Radio

by Nick February 18, 2013

Michael Wacha was a guest on TexAgs Radio in late January, with fellow former Aggies Barret Loux and Brooks Raley, both members of the Chicago Cubs organization. There’s obviously a lot of chatter about the latter two throughout the video, but Wacha gets his time to talk about going to Cardinals camp in Jupiter and [...]

Ballpark Village 101

by Dennis February 8, 2013

With 47 custom shovels at the ready to commemorate the event, a small army of Burberry-clad townsfolk braved the chilly weather in downtown St Louis.  They gallantly stepped outside of their luxury automobiles long enough to break ground for the first phase of Ballpark Village (BPV).  While this day has been long in the making, [...]

Mariners Extend King Felix, Wainwright Dances

by Dennis February 7, 2013

USA Today Sports has reported that the Mariners have been somehow leveraged into a 7 year, $175M contract extension for Felix Hernandez, because you can never pay too much to be a solid 4th place ahead of the Astros.  Granted, that shouldn’t be viewed as the floor for an Adam Wainwright extension, but even seeing [...]

Drugs, More Drugs, and Other Druggy Things

by Dennis February 7, 2013

As long as games exist so too will cheaters that target those games.  Taking a legislative approach to prevent cheating accomplishes a lot, but it comes with some inherent limitations. Primary among those limitations is that the system is necessarily a reactive mechanism much like the criminal court system in America.  MLB can educate, inform, [...]

Rock the MLB FanCave Vote

by Josh February 5, 2013

While today’s news about Carp certainly dampens the mood, there are still some positive St. Louis baseball activities happening. Personally, I look forward to Spring Training as a way to escape Winter in the Midwest, so even stories about packing up the gear gets me excited. One new wrinkle to add fun again this February [...]

CARPe Dammit!

by Dennis February 5, 2013

“…very unlikely that he will pitch in 2013.” – John Mozeliak, Cardinals GM (about 20 minutes ago) “Well, FU*%!” -Me, just now If it looks like a duck and sounds like a duck, then it’s probably forced retirement in the near future.  Grrr.

Cardinals Catch-All 01.30.13

by Nick January 30, 2013

Anymore, various stories about the Cardinals and their players come across my inbox faster than I can react to them (for the most part) but I often feel many are worth sharing.  I thought maybe a weekly (or as-dictated by worthy items to report) catch-all post would be the most efficient way to both communicate [...]

The Personal PED Question

by Dennis January 29, 2013

Curious to see feedback on this, because the risk/reward calculation, practical considerations, and moral/legal implications must certainly be weighed differently by different people. Follow gr33nazn on Twitter for more about weighing thoughts…

by Nick January 28, 2013

The triumphant return of the Pitchers Hit Eighth podcast resulted in Episode 12.0 and we were extremely lucky to have Mike Ferrin, co-host of Power Alley on MLB Network Radio on SiriusXM, as our guest. We talked to Mike at length about the lasting legacy of Stan Musial, Jason Motte‘s new contract, a pending (hopefully) [...]

Remembering and honoring The Man, Stan Musial

by Nick January 27, 2013

It’s been both a hard weekend on Cardinal fans, but also one of great joy in reliving the outstanding, full life of Stan Musial.  The outpouring of respect, love, and admiration from Cardinal fans in St. Louis and across the nation has been touching and – thankfully, for those of us unable to share in [...]
