For the fifth straight year, we’re taking some time in that time between the end of the season and the winter meetings to discuss each player that made an appearance on the St. Louis roster this season. Whether they played almost every day or never actually got into a game, they get covered in this [...]

Last year in October I started the Top Cards on Twitter project as a way to see who people thought were some of the best Cardinal-related follows on the microblogging platform. I left it completely open, asking folks to name 15-20 folks in order and then tabulating up the results. (You can find the final [...]
Tara and I will be back doing Gateway to Baseball Heaven tomorrow evening, at least for a night, and we thought that we might not have a lot to talk about except the Cubs being champs and what that means going forward. The Cardinals, however, had different ideas. Let’s take a look at all that’s [...]
In the fall of 2007, as our first project as a group, the United Cardinal Bloggers did their own awards. The various awards have been tinkered with over time (none of us were even dreaming of podcasting at that time, for instance) but the bulk of them have remained the same. It’s our way to [...]
News, news, news today, as Mark Saxon is reporting the Cardinals will not extend a qualifying offer (reported to be about $17.2 million this year) to Brandon Moss. What seemed likely at the All-Star Break was torpedoed by his late, terrible slump.
If nothing else, the Cards aren’t wasting time making news. Per Jenifer Langosch, the club is expected to pick up Jaime Garcia’s $12 million option for next season.
To the surprise of basically no one, the Cardinals extended Mike Matheny’s contract today, adding three years to his current deal.
The battle continues to rage outside. Luke and his friends continue to perform aerial gymnastics while avoiding laser fire and sending in some of their own. The Republic management continues to monitor things back at the base. Suddenly, something new appears on the display. The control officer contacts the ships. JAMIE POGUE (CONTROL OFFICER) [...]
The Arsenal finally comes out of hyperspace at a lush green moon of a planet named Archland. The ship settles down outside an old stone structure. Oh is quickly ushered inside and the scouting reports are then distributed with Mozeliak and others cloistered to discuss and analyze them. Finally, the braintrust emerges and calls [...]
It’s tradition around this time of year for the United Cardinal Bloggers to get together and ask the tough questions, the really digging deep ones about the Cardinals and the season that was. Then I go last and ruin it all. It’s a little game we play. This year, I asked the participants the following: [...]
While this drama has been going on, Carpenter has made his way to the tractor beam terminal. He edges out onto the ledge over a deep chasm and turns all the controls from blue to red, breaking the beam. As he is out there, the end of the hallway opens and two troopers stand guard, [...]
