Hey all been a while. I meant to write this post at the All-Star break, got started, then never finished. It’s still relevant though. One thing I’ve always assumed is that front offices of professional sports teams are smarter than the average joe, especially now. They’re paid a ton of money, either have advanced degrees [...]
In 2011, the Cardinals held their first Blogger Day event. It was held the first weekend of the season and Jaime Garcia blanked the Padres 2-0 behind RBI from Ryan Theriot and Yadier Molina, getting the Cards their first win of the season.

It’s not going to get any better, I don’t think. I’m not necessarily talking about the Cardinals, though I think there’s a case to be made that what you see may be what you get. No, I’m talking about my ability to stay up to date and write in a semi-regular manner instead of letting [...]

Yadier Molina is an institution. He is a generational Cardinals player, the catching version of Ozzie Smith. So, I write this with all due respect. Yadier Molina is a major problem, right now. As stated in the title — and I want to be sure to state this fact early — it is largely because [...]
