After much radio silence over the last few days, the Cardinals dropped a lot on folks yesterday. However, most Cardinal fans only heard six words. Dylan Carlson is being called up. I’ve understood (and argued in favor) of what the front office was doing in looking at their other options first. It made sense and [...]
I honestly think the Cardinals are through the worst of it. Of course, I’d have probably said that last Friday, right before more cases were discovered and another week wound up being wiped off the calendar. Still, while I have no problems with those cancellations given the situation, it does seem like that might have [...]

The outbreak may be finally contained. The ramifications are just now starting to take shape. The Cardinals announced that, after sending all the positive COVID-19 cases home, no positives were shown out of the latest round of testing. If the same thing happens tomorrow–and I would expect it would, given the time from possible infection–the [...]

John Mozeliak, talking to the bloggers on Wednesday, reiterated that he felt like the team was “in a good spot” and were doing all they could, even as they hold their breath and hope to come out unscathed. Little did he know that, as he was speaking, the wheels were in the process of coming [...]

The team did not [...]
Most of you know this, but every year since 2011, the Cardinals have hosted the United Cardinal Bloggers at a game. The interactions, the suites, the food and drink are all well and good, but what most people come for is the question-and-answer session with John Mozeliak and Bill DeWitt III before everything kicks off. [...]
For a people that have such a reputation for hospitality, the Twins sure didn’t show any last night. Obviously, that was not the kind of outing you wanted to see for the first start of Carlos Martinez. I wasn’t able to watch the beginning of the game, relying on GameDay to keep me posted, but [...]
