The Cardinals went into Milwaukee, a place where they are quite happy to play, against a team that they have done quite well against, and won two out of three. Even that is a little disappointing, given the situation, but sweeps are hard. The problem is that with just a little bit less luck, they’d [...]

I don’t want to complain, because a win is a win and the Cardinals needed their victories the last couple of nights in Milwaukee. It helped them get a little more breathing room in the wild card race as Chicago has beaten Pittsburgh twice in a row as well. Everything is good here, situation normal….but [...]
We didn’t know it, but the run had begun. From this point until the end of the 2011 season, the drama would build, the excitement would take hold, and historical things were happening. Right now, it just looked like a regular part of a lost season. Taking Joy Where You Can Been a while since [...]
LEFTY DEAN KIEKHEFER RECALLED FROM MEMPHIS (AAA) ST. LOUIS, Mo., August 29, 2016 – The St. Louis Cardinals announced today that they have placed right-handed pitcher Mike Leake (shingles) on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to August 22. Left-handed reliever Dean Kiekhefer has been recalled from Memphis (AAA) and will join the team for tonight’s series [...]
As referenced at the end of last night’s post, Rob Rains posted an interview with Kolten Wong on his site yesterday that got everyone talking. Even this morning, I found it tough to get the site to load as the traffic for that post was more than the site could handle. There’s a lot in [...]
Throughout this season, we’ve often made the comment that the Cardinals haven’t been able (or, if you want to cover both types, have been resistant) to do anything with momentum. Big wins are followed by lackluster losses, but there are enough wins and rallies to make you think this team still has a chance. It’s [...]
This post actually went up five years ago yesterday. Five years ago today, the run started while some of us watched, as it was Social Media Night at Busch that evening. The Cardinals sat 10.5 games out of the wild card with barely a month left. It’s no wonder that many of us were pessimistic. [...]

Matt Holliday, Matt Carpenter, Stephen Piscotty & Alex Pietrangelo among participants helping raise money for charity ST. LOUIS, Mo., August 22, 2016 – For the fourth consecutive year, Adam Wainwright is bringing his annual Big League Impact fantasy football live draft and its winning fundraising formula of MLB players, celebrities and fans to Busch Stadium [...]
All year long, we’ve talked about this team being allergic to momentum. Big wins are followed up by terrible losses. The most you could seem to hope for was a couple of games in a row. Nothing that made you think that this was more than a slightly-better-than-.500 team. And yet, over the last week, [...]
