Yeah, I’m a little behind on this one – so what, wanna fight about it? 5. Chris Carpenter and Roy Halladay go fishing I’ve been told, over and over and over and over again, that this was a thing. And then Doc saved someone from a snake and Carp busted up his toe. Story! (You [...]

Go check them out. Are you done laughing yet? Can I continue? OK, I’ll wait … Let’s get two facts [...]

Will Leitch, life-long Cardinal fan (and also of New York Magazine, his book Are We Winning?, and Editor Emeritus of Deadspin) was our guest for the first post-Pujols recording. We discussed that subject at length, as well as what the future holds for the Cardinals sans Albert Pujols, and just a little Fighting Illini chatter [...]
Late night Twitter rumors are fun! And it’s not Albert Pujols… Tonight, the following Tweet came across my screen: @Ellen_Prinzi: CONGRATULATIONS to @jluhnow [Jeff Luhnow] on being named GM for the Houston Astros.

ESPN’s Keith Law from Scouts Inc. ranked the St. Louis Cardinal minor league system 29th out of 30 in his yearly organizational rankings list. St. Louis’ system was depleted by the mid-season trade acquisitions of Mark DeRosa and Matt Holliday. While having a poor minor league system is never a good thing, on the optimistic [...]

Without a doubt this is a list in flux, and I presume that’s the case for more folks than just yours truly. Last season’s list bore little resemblance to what it would’ve been in mid-July of this season, and neither of those would match with the list below. Even my late posting of this list [...]

With the 19th selection of the 2009 Major League Baseball First Year Player Draft, the St. Louis Cardinals have selected right-handed pitcher Shelby Miller, from Brownwood High School in Brownwood, TX. ‘Round here we know better than to step on the toes of the fine folks over at Future Redbirds, who have far more knowledge [...]

Yesterday afternoon’s game obviously requires some revisiting. Yes, I was hoping not to feel like 2008 all over again until later in the season. Yes, the Cardinals have already logged two blown saves for the season in just one game. Yes, we will live to play another day. Fer chris’sakes people, it was only the [...]

I was asked to take part in a ‘United Cardinal Bloggers‘ project which tasked several of us Cardinal blog writers to list our top seven prospects in the organization. That was the only instruction, there were no further restrictions. As such, my list follows: 1. OF Colby Rasmus – Obviously, any Cardinal prospect list has [...]
