The St Louis Cardinals’ newest infielder, Julio Lugo is expected to be at tonight’s game in Washington, a one-game makeup versus the usually hapless Nationals. Knowing Tony LaRussa’s tendency to throw players into the mix early on, we wouldn’t be surprised to see Lugo’s name on the lineup card right away.
In a bit of a [...]
[Ed. note - I know it's July. I know I'm about four-ish weeks late with this post. Sue me. Better late than never, right?]
I was lucky growing up where I did, about a half-hour east of St Louis – “on the Illinois side.” I was able to attend Cardinal games fairly regularly, thanks to [...]

Saturday brought not only a much needed win for the St. Louis Cardinals, but also another bat for their sometimes slumping offense.
Many Cardinal fans had been clamoring for weeks for Cards GM John Mozeliak to acquire the versatile Mark DeRosa from the Cleveland Indians, and the deal was made late Saturday night for reliever Chris [...]

[Ed. note - As part of our vacation reading, I asked my Twitter buddy Jake Wagman, political reporter for the St Louis Post-Dispatch, to do a Q&A with us. Happily, Jake obliged. Extensively. We couldn't have asked for better responses. Jake gave us some great insight into the political workings that go along with a [...]

[Ed. note - While the usual suspect around here is on vacation, we've drummed up some great guest posters to take the reins and keep our loyal readers (all three of you) entertained. Today's guest post is from Sherwood Farnham. If you're not already following Sherwood on Twitter @Mstrdstr12, you should be. It should be [...]

While searching through my favorite repository for MLB contract information, Cot’s Baseball Contracts, I came across a very valuable tool for Cardinal fans with an eye on the future and how the organization might be able to leverage their payroll.
I was originally headed over to Cot’s to begin to compile a multi-year outlook on the [...]

Today marks that usual part of the year where we try like hell not to be homers, and usually fail to some extent. Without further delay, our predictions for the NL Central standings in 2009:
Chicago Cubs – Anyone not picking the Cubs at the top of this division is fooling themselves (sorry Sarah!). That’s not [...]

Those of you listening to 1380 in St Louis today may find this duplicative, same if you read Bernie’s Press Box over at the STLToday forums.
If you fit into neither of those groups, this may provide helpful for you. I listened to Bernie’s segment with Cardinals GM John Mozeliak this afternoon, and there were some [...]

While some of these wouldn’t necessarily qualify as a “move” in most minds, here are – in my opinion – the most influential moves/non-moves/transactions made by the Cardinals’ brass during the 2008 calendar year. (In no particular order.)
Trade Scott Rolen for Troy Glaus.
I still wonder to this day if John Mozeliak fell out of his [...]

Today brought us some great posts across the Cardinal blogosphere, not so indirectly focused toward an article that appeared yesterday in the St Louis Post-Dispatch.
I don’t have a lot to add to what Pip and C70 have already said regarding the venom being spewed toward Cardinal management, nor about the media’s involvement in provoking and/or [...]
