C70 At The Bat

As is tradition around these parts after the season is over, we’re taking a look at every player that got into a game for the St. Louis Cardinals this season.  That’ll range from someone that didn’t record an out to someone that played almost every inning.  Treat it like they are stopping by the manager’s [...]

Catching The Golden Skip

For the fact that it was the first weekend in November, it was a busy one for Cardinals news.  The Cards got a new bench coach and set a golden record. Let’s take the first part first.  After a search that probably wasn’t much more extensive than the managerial one, the front office has selected [...]

As expected after a press conference was called and reports (led by Katie Woo) of its substance were circulated, the St. Louis Cardinals named Oli Marmol the 51st manager in the club’s history.  If you bet on Marmol getting the job 10 days ago when Mike Shildt was fired, you probably didn’t make much money [...]

Today, my friend Brian Swope (@PoppaSwope on Twitter, give him a follow) over at Gateway City Sports took to his platform to suggest that John Mozeliak should have been the one that was fired over Mike Shildt and, at the very least, Mo needs to find some sort of ice pack because his seat should [...]

Thou Shildt Not Manage

I was scrolling through Facebook right after lunch yesterday when I saw a news story that I was sure was fake.  “Mike Shildt, fired?  Yeah right, whatever, what weird rumor is some fringe group promoting?”  Then I saw it was from Rob Rains at St. Louis Sports Page.  Rob’s a credentialed journalist and has been [...]

Make Mine (Team) Marvel!

Yesterday, Minor League Baseball announced a partnership with Marvel Entertainment.  Over the next three years, 96 of the 120 teams will play at least one Marvel-themed game with special jerseys and the like.  You know, the sort of thing that minor league baseball does.  (BTW, if you are interested in going to one, Memphis and [...]

Can’t Dodge The Winter

Let’s get this out of the way up front.  The Dodgers are a very good team.  While their win total might be slightly padded given they played Arizona and Colorado a lot (they went 16-3 against the Diamondbacks and 13-6 against the Rockies), there’s a reason they won over 100 games and are considered the [...]

Talking To The Other Side

As many of you know, every spring I do a series called Playing Pepper where I talk with bloggers of other teams.  It’s sort of a season preview from the point of view of those that know the team best. After the wild card matchup was set, Scott Andes, a long-time participant in Playing Pepper [...]
