I’ve got an ever-growing number of items floating around the ole desk here that I need to get resolved, so as such, here’s one big catch-all post to take care of them… Trade Deadline Not ecstatic to see Colby Rasmus leave, but I think it was another situation where the relationship (however you want to […]

Before the haters out there get too excited, this isn’t really about pitting the two against one another. Instead, the point of this post is to try to explain why Jon Jay has such a positive perception among fans while Colby Rasmus produces more of a mixed reaction. When fans of Jon Jay laud his […]
Cardinals vs Reds. Chris Carpenter vs Johnny Cueto. The July 4th game had all the media hype of a WWE event. What did fans see? A pitcher’s duel that ended 1-0. Nobody got accidentally brushed back a little harder than usual. Nobody was drilled in the ribs. Heck, the only pitch close to the batter’s box […]
Rather than focus on just one topic, I’m giving in to my less focused side and tossing a bunch of thoughts against the perverbial wall to see what sticks. The end result is a shotgun splatter pattern of fragmented thoughts that exceed the 140 character limit of a tweet but aren’t deserving of a complete […]
I believe I’m about to embark on what some around St. Louis might call heresy. Still reading? Ok, then let’s continue… Today’s WAR Graphs compare the most recent Cardinal center fielders of significant tenure – Jim Edmonds, Ray Lankford, and Willie McGee – all three with over one-thousand games played in center for the Redbirds. […]
Hellooo, TLR! Is this thing even on? Has anybody besides me noticed that Matt Holliday hasn’t exactly been pounding the ball since going 3/5 on May 13th against the Reds? Since that day, he’s gone 4/31 and dropped his batting average from .398 to .344. A hitting slump alone isn’t cause for concern, especially when […]
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 […]

Yep, my soapbox is bigger than yours is, because it has to be sturdy. I like to eat 8 lb burritos with a spork while I’m standing on my soapbox, so prepare yourselves. It’s about to get ugly up in here. WARNING: A rant is about to take place. I’m sick and tired of people […]

…about the 2010 Cardinals? “I’d play against these guys on one leg,” Phillips insisted before the game. “We have to beat these guys. All they do is b***h and moan about everything — all of them. They’re little b***hes — all of them. “I really hate the Cardinals. Compared to the Cardinals, I love the […]
