The Pujols Coin

by Dennis December 13, 2010

Yes, I’ve just “coined” a new term, and it’s named the “Pujols Coin”.  Like most coins, it has both a “heads” and a “tails” side, and I’m using it to represent the two sides of the debate over whether or not the Cardinals should sign Albert Pujols to a contract extension.  There are probably dozens of well-written articles […]

A Bucket of Baseballs

by Dennis December 12, 2010

Seriously, why not just trade Brendan Ryan for a bucket of baseballs?  The bucket of baseballs would be more useful to the 2011 Cardinals than Maikel Cleto.  That’s no knock on Cleto.  He may turn into a fine pitcher, but it’s unlikely that he’ll be a fine pitcher any time soon.  Actually, it’s unlikely that […]

John Mozeliak’s best Rod Blagojevich impersonation

by Nick December 10, 2010

Don’t let the title run you off just yet, I promise I’m going to make sense of it. I’m going to piggy-back a bit on what Dennis wrote this morning, because either we were reading the same things yesterday or great minds just think alike. Now, I know I’ve been a bit scarce in this […]

The Winter of Our Malcontent

by Dennis December 10, 2010

Conspiracy theories aren’t my thing.  I’ve been to the famous grassy knoll at Dealey Plaza in Dallas, and I’m confident that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone shooter.  It’s not that I did some complicated and expensive re-creation using a computer simulation or watched a really detailed re-enactment of the event.  It’s just that I’ve […]

One Step Ahead

by Dennis December 9, 2010

In just about anything you do, it often pays to at least be thinking one step ahead of everybody else.  That doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to be prescient to the point that you can call the next pitch.  Sometimes it is as simple as preparing for a rainy day or anticipating needs before they appear.  That’s […]

To The Left. Left. Left, Right, Left!

by Dennis December 8, 2010

If you’re Lance Berkman (and you’re probably not), the title is probably quite representative of what you get when you consume any kind of sports news content generated recently regarding “Big Puma” and the St. Louis Cardinals.  Left field or right field.  Which one should he play?  Bernie Miklasz weighed in on the subject in his column, Bernie […]

Pujols-type Money

by Dennis December 7, 2010

If you have to ask, you probably can’t afford it.  You’ve probably all heard this line at one time or another.  It’s usually said in jest, but there are indeed times when it is completely appropriate and sadly true.  Consider the case of the Pagani Zonda or the Bugatti Veyron.  What are those?  If you […]

Werth Versus Holliday

by Dennis December 6, 2010

This post is most certainly about Werth versus Holliday, but there is a bit of business to tend to first.  Based on what little I’ve read about Cliff Lee‘s agent, Darek Braunecker, I suspect that he’s about as useful as a box of rocks.  That’s not to say that he isn’t a good agent.  He could be the greatest agent […]

Big Walls and Faulty Logic

by Dennis December 6, 2010

After the news broke that the Padres and Red Sox had worked out a trade involving Adrian Gonzalez, I could’ve sworn I heard a collective sigh from Cardinal Nation.  The commonly held belief is that since the Red Sox now have a stud first baseman, they will no longer be interested in Pujols when he […]

The Pile of Money At The Ledge

by Dennis December 5, 2010

Obviously, there must be a huge pile of money located near a ledge somewhere, because this would logically explain why so many Cardinals fans had to be asked to back away from ledges yesterday.  I’m kidding of course, and the “ledges” weren’t real.  The only huge pile of money involved was the one the Cardinals’ […]
