We talked about Adam Wainwright a long, long time ago.  That doesn’t mean we can’t do it again, especially when there are a few new bits to discuss.  But, basically, Adam Wainwright is an amazing person and I’m fine talking about him whenever. Last week, Ken Rosenthal wrote a nice piece about the Cardinal legend [...]

First off, happy Mother’s Day to any mothers out there reading this.  I would hope you’d have something better to do with your holiday, but you do you.  The sacrifices and gifts a mother gives her children are without measure and I know my mother is no exception to that rule. Yesterday, we talked about [...]

Friday afternoon is usually when bad news is dumped on the public.  Nobody’s paying attention, the weekend is coming so it’s not covered, it’s the best time to put something out there that you really don’t want to discuss.  I don’t know that yesterday’s news counted in that regard–though one portion of it really might [...]

You know how, when you were in school, every once in a while either because of a sub or because it was Friday or whatever the case may be, the teacher would just play a movie instead of doing an actual lesson?  Yeah, that’s today.  We can talk about the latest reopening plan and whether [...]

We’ve talked some about what games might look like without fans.  It’s going to be weird, quiet, and slightly depressing not to have the crowd noise and buzz in the stadium.  However, something we’ve not thought about is what’s it going to be like inside the dugout? After yesterday’s solicitation for thoughts to write about [...]

CODNP Day 55: The KBO

Baseball has returned to our TV screens!  Just, well, not exactly what we are used to. Given their fighting of the virus, South Korea was able to start their baseball season this week.  (I’m not here to argue whether their methods would have worked here or anything of the sort, so let’s move on.)  With [...]

Part of the problem with writing a post every day is that you aren’t going to use material by posting twice on one day.  So while there were discussions this weekend about what Albert Pujols had said about playing past his contract, we’re just now getting to them.  If it makes it old news, it’s [...]

May the 4th be with you!  While celebrating Star Wars on May 4th is kinda like amateur hour, like partying on New Year’s, for someone that can do Star Wars at the drop of the hat and for many possible reasons, that doesn’t mean I’m going to pass over this opportunity.  Honestly, the five of [...]

No matter what happens with the season, whether it is cancelled or just significantly shortened, there’s going to be a whole lot made out of vesting options for certain players.  For anyone unaware, you can have a team option, where the team decides whether to pick up the option year of a contract, a player [...]

Honestly, one of the aspects of this whole shutdown that hadn’t even crossed my mind is what it meant for the umpires.  They always say that a good umpire is one that you don’t even notice, so I guess there was a whole association of them right now.  Even Angel Hernandez hadn’t popped up in [...]

FOX Sports Midwest will re-air the Cardinals’ three victories in their 2019 NLDS triumph over Atlanta next week in prime time. The Cardinals rallied in the eighth and ninth innings to win Game 1. They won Game 4 in 10 innings at Busch. And they scored 10 first-inning runs, a postseason record, in Game 5. [...]
