Dan Uggla – WOW was that ugly, but it’s obviously not a true sampling of his talents. Heck, I’d trade Chris Duncan for him, not that Florida would do it, but I’d sure do it. Josh Hamilton – WOW was that great. What a feel good story. I remember seeing him as a labour on [...]
It’s been a tough week or so here in Cardinal Nation. Lost two out of three to the baby bears, lost the Phillies Series, saw two BIG trades for pitchers with the Brewers and Cubs, and the team is sorta in the duldrums. So let’s mix it up a bit and talk about Baseball, Cold [...]
I was excited about the Cubs v. Cards weekend given it’s the BEST rivalry in sports, but I had my worries. In a nutshel, the Cardinals will have zero chance of catching and passing the Cubs without better starting pitching. Wellemeyer’s performance sums up what’s wrong with their starters. Welly goes only 5 innings, giving [...]
OK, here’s your quiz. Which one of these Hank Steinbrenner comments is from The Onion and which one is from the New York Times? ITEM A: The Yankees’ loss of their ace, Chien-Ming Wang, for up to 10 weeks prompted the team co-chairman Hank Steinbrenner to chastise the National League for playing without a designated [...]
Do Adam Wainwright was having a Adam Wainwright game when POP goes the middle finger of pitching hand and he leaves instantly. The Cardinals’ still won 8-4 over the Astros’, but I bet the Redbirds Ace will be heading to the DL. So that would put him with “good” company. Chris Carpenter – Latest line [...]
Hell no! It’s not like Johnny Damon who freely left the Red Sox for their rival the Yankees.Jimmy Baseball wasn’t wanted by the Cardinals. He had a no trade in his contract, but he waived that right for the sake of the Cardinals!!! He under performed in San Diego,and he was released. That makes him [...]
All I can say is that the Cardinals are playing like the team everyone thought they were before the season. For what it’s worth, I predicted a .500 season for the Birds. Of late the starting pitching has been…mediocre. You get one good start out of a pitcher, then he comes back with a poor [...]

The Cards will entertain the “Northsiders” this weekend for a three game series. Cubbies are in first place with 17 up and 10 down and the Cards are in essence tied with them with a 18-11 record. It’s early in the season, but this is the stuff we live for! So who’ll win the series? [...]
With 9.26% of the Cardinals season elapsed already and the Cubs already mathematically eliminated (SORRY, I CAN’T HELP IT!) I thought I’d uncover a few interesting stats/facts about the Birds on the Bat. Yadier Molina – Yadi leads the league in “At-Bats per Strikeouts” That’s the rate of failure at the plate calculated by dividing [...]
