Admit it. The “Baby Birds” are no longer babies, if they ever really even were at all. Maybe these guys seem new like a breath of fresh air, but most of them have been around more than a year or two. Some of them have been in the organization for several years. Consider some of […]

Also, keep your hands and feet inside the ride at all times until the bandwagon comes to a complete stop. Make sure you seats and tray tables are in the fully upright and locked positions. In the unlikely event of a water landing, Logan Morrison‘s ego may be used as a flotation device. It may […]
In this crazy world of ours, where nuclear war could break out at any moment, one must be ready for the worst at all times. Baseball is no different, and if any team should be doing as many duck-and-cover drills as infield drills, it’s the Cardinals. This is part of the deal when you stock […]

The Cardinals’ release of veteran non-roster invitees Alex Cora and Koyie Hill on Sunday wasn’t the type of transaction that jumps off the computer screen at you, but it was another signal of how the organization has changed in recent years. Five years ago, and perhaps even more recently, Cora and/or Hill probably would have […]

Up until last Sept. 28, when the Cardinals won in Houston and the Braves lost in Atlanta and the National League wildcard spot completed its logic-defying defection to St. Louis, May 1, 2011, would have been as good a day as any with which to sum up the Redbirds’ season. It was a day that […]

Yes, it is already that time of year. As of right now, over 150 players have already filed for free agency. Among that group are several members of the 2011 World Series Champion Cardinals.

By now, you should be fairly familiar with the Cardinals 25 active roster. As of the completion of the game against the Royals, it consisted of 13 pitchers, 2 catchers, 6 infielders, and 5 outfielders, although technically Allen Craig was getting playing time as an infielder as of late. Shortly after the game, it was […]
