A fun way to waste time

by Nick August 29, 2009

We’ve featured the work of Batting Stance Guy here before. Of course, that was before he was BattingStanceGuy.com ™. (We think.) Well, the Guy was on the field with the Cardinals and Dodgers last week during the West Coast swing, and he got to tell Manny Ramirez to “hang on a sec”.  Good stuff. BattingStanceGuy.com […]

Rotation Junction

by Josh August 28, 2009

The revelation that Kyle Lohse is closer to returning than anyone thought has me pondering when John Smoltz should be moved to his permanent spot with St. Louis. It really has nothing to do with K-Mac last night or Motte for the last couple of months but rather October. Don’t get me wrong — I […]

Fun with Cardinal streaks

by Nick August 28, 2009

Spurred on again by Baseball-Reference’s Stat of the Day blog who ran the first streak number below (6+ IP) this morning, I’ve been fiddling around with the B-R Play Index and came up with a bunch of my own that feature some Cardinals. Longest streak in 2009 for a starting pitcher going six or more […]

CardLinks 08.26.09

by Nick August 26, 2009

Last night’s game was pretty boring huh?  Adam Wainwright and shutout baseball?  Quick game?  YAWN! Don’t fret PH8ers – we’ve got some new (and some old) links for you to peruse. DeRo, Smoltzie, and those poor Baby Bears The Boston Herald dumps a heap of salt into the wounds of Cub fans with this one. […]

Getting This Party Started

by Josh August 26, 2009

After such a warm welcome, I figured out the best way to introduce myself again to the three loyal readers of PH8. I’m going to talk entirely about another person. Erin Bolen has resumed her pinch-hitting role down in Springfield and shares with us that she has the inside track to take over the beat full-time.

Please Welcome Josh to PH8

by Nick August 25, 2009

As the Cardinals steam toward the playoffs and Cardinal fans search for more information and news, demanding more information about their team, the challenge to keep fresh content here on the site for our loyal readers (all three of you) continues to increase. With that in mind (and an eye toward yours truly getting more […]

One Year Ago (Twitter!) and links

by Nick August 21, 2009

Can’t believe it’s been this long already, and can’t believe the date slipped by even this long. It’s not one year to the day, but a couple days ago marked the anniversary of our foray onto Twitter. What a wild ride it’s been, thanks to all of you following. Can anyone help with the Twitter […]

Joel Pineiro Walking in Rare Company

by Nick August 20, 2009

By now you’ve surely heard from someone, or read somewhere, or looked it up yourself.  Joel Pineiro has displayed exceptional control of his pitches this season. In fact, entering his start in San Diego tonight, Pineiro leads MLB among qualifying pitchers in fewest walks total and fewest walks per nine innings.  Not far behind are […]
