St Louis Cardinals
USA Today Sports has reported that the Mariners have been somehow leveraged into a 7 year, $175M contract extension for Felix Hernandez, because you can never pay too much to be a solid 4th place ahead of the Astros. Granted, that shouldn’t be viewed as the floor for an Adam Wainwright extension, but even seeing […]

The 2012 season for the St. Louis Cardinals came to a rather abrupt, sobering halt tonight. Taking time to reflect and collect one’s thoughts before writing a post-mortem might be a savvy move. I am not that man. So, please go elsewhere for brevity, hat tipping, and the usual exchange of pleasantries that often follows […]

During the recent UCB Weekend in St. Louis, several of us in attendance had an opportunity to sit through a rather well-honed elevator pitch from the folks at Burton History Trees. I usually don’t listen to a lot of details about business plans, business models, and product design, because my actual job involves far too […]

Jaime Garcia departed yesterday’s NLDS game after just 2 innings and 51 pitches. Though he appeared to labor through those 2 innings, his command and control didn’t appear all that bad, and his velocity seemed normal.

David Freese and Yadier Molina both hit the 20 HR mark last night. Based on the practically palpable excitement on the internets, this must have been a record or something. It was. The St. Louis Cardinals as a franchise has been around since prehistoric times – 1882 to be exact (that’s what we call the […]
