Welcome to the Internet’s favorite pastime, The Blame Game! The Cardinals again cracked their head on that glass ceiling that is three games above .500, losing in heartbreaking fashion to the Reds last night. You’ve got fingers, let’s point them! Who do you like for this one? Is it…. ….Kevin Siegrist? After all, the Cardinals [...]
I tried to write this post yesterday, but after an hour and 1700 words, Wordpress ate it like a fat guy at a buffet. (I should know from experience.) Given the recent move of the Cardinals, it’s probably a good thing at least some of it never could be read. Let’s try to quickly review [...]
Move Opens Roster Spot for INF Jhonny Peralta ST. LOUIS, Mo. , June 6, 2016 – The Cardinals optioned second baseman Kolten Wong to Memphis (AAA) following Sunday night’s 6-3 win over San Francisco. The move opens up space on the team’s 25-man active roster for the anticipated activation off the disabled list of infielder [...]
Recently it was announced that when Jhonny Peralta gets back, he’ll play third base, Matt Carpenter (who is perhaps my favorite player on the team) will shift to second base, and Aledmys Diaz will stay at shortstop. Where does that leave Kolten Wong? And before you say utility role, isn’t that what we acquired Jedd [...]

Imagine, if you will, you wake up prone in a strange land. It looks nice, it’s warm, it’s bright. You sit up and look around, finding a few familiar things but unable to see much beyond your immediate radius. When you try to stand up, however, you crash into some invisible barricade, forcing you back [...]

I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day holiday. While the Cardinals got us a win on most folks’ day off, over the past few days we’ve seen that they are still unable to string wins together at any sort of consistent rate. Which is unfortunate, because both Chicago and Pittsburgh (especially the Cubs) seem [...]
Someone mentioned the other day, that down the road, Seung-hwan Oh, a 33 year old Korean closer who we signed in the off-season to join our bullpen, would eventually supplant Trevor Rosenthal as our closer. I thought I’d take a closer look at the two and compare them. Oh, who I mentioned is a former [...]

Garcia, 26, began the season on the Cardinals Opening Day [...]
The hope for the Cardinals this week, facing both the best team in the world (and possibly the greatest of all time, if you believe the press clippings) in the Chicago Cubs and one of their few threats in the Washington Nationals, was to come through it with more wins than losses and a sense [...]
