Take The Gloves Off

by Dennis May 16, 2011

Let me begin with a huge disclaimer, because I like disclaimers a lot.  The Reds are presently constructed a lot like I would like to see the Cardinals put together right now.  They have a lot of speed and power in the right places, defend well, and they appear to have just enough pitching to […]

The Pujols Contract Irregular – The Jim Hendry Hug Edition

by Nick May 15, 2011

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 […]

Pitchers Hit Eighth Podcast – Episode 1.0: “But his stuff! His stuff looked good!”

by Nick May 14, 2011

Drew Silva from NBCSports.com’s Hardball Talk blog and Rotoworld.com joins us to talk about the Cardinals and the NL Central. We touched on several topics (ranging across a couple recording dates) including the Cards’ defense, bullpen, Chris Carpenter‘s struggles, and Ryan Theriot versus Brendan Ryan (and Tyler Greene, and Nick Punto, and Daniel Descalso, and […]

Friendly Advice to the Reds

by Dennis May 13, 2011

As the Reds prepare to host the Cardinals this weekend, I thought it might be necessary to help the host team out with a few friendly suggestions about how to stay hospitable and maintain the highest level of decorum they can muster. Don’t do “The Wave”.  It’s pathetic in any stadium, and it just looks […]

Broadcasting misconceptions about Lance Berkman, Outfielder

by Nick May 12, 2011

No, I am not going to address last night’s game. I am pretending like it never happened. So what, wanna fight about it? I do want to address a comment I had the privilege of hearing out of Bob Brenly‘s mouth last night on the Cubs’ Comcast Chicago broadcast. Brenly stated, and I am paraphrasing, […]

TheRiot Platoon?

by Dennis May 10, 2011

Maybe Ryan Theriot‘s current line of .287/.341/.320/.661 isn’t really that far off of his career line of .284/.348/.354/.702, but I’m beginning to question whether or not he’s the right guy at the leadoff spot for the Cardinals.  More pointedly, I’m questioning whether or not he’s the right guy at that spot on a full-time basis.  […]

No Way Jose!

by Dennis May 10, 2011

This is about the Albert Pujols contract extension, but yet in a way it is.  The decision to avoid negotiations during the season handcuffs the team, and it certainly works against the best interests of the Cardinals.  Disagree? The Cardinals are leading a very competitive (if highly suspect) NL Central by 1 game at this point.  What […]

UCB 2011 Progressive Game Blog – Brewers vs Cards – Ninth Inning

by Nick May 7, 2011

Cardinals fans at Busch Stadium this weekend have been treated to three starting pitching gems so far in just two games – two for the good guys (Jaime Garcia and Kyle Lohse) and one by the opposing Brewers (Yovani Gallardo).  Lohse’s required a bit more wiggle work, but he was outstanding again nonetheless. We enter […]

The Most Interesting Man….In St Louis

by Dennis May 6, 2011

He can hit a grand slam with nobody on base.  He once hit a ground-rule triple.  He made Chuck Norris cry during a game of rock-paper-scissors.  He calls his own balls and strikes, and nobody complains.  He signs huge contracts just to make his agent look good.  He once bruised Yadier Molina‘s ribs with a friendly […]

Did Somebody Say “Free”?

by Dennis May 5, 2011

That’s right.  It’s another of our world famous giveaways.  That’s where we do something really complicated to give away something to one of our 3 loyal readers.  Alternatively, we do something really, really simple to give something away to someone who isn’t one of our 3 loyal readers.  I reviewed the Fantasy Sports Coach app […]
