You can’t have a strong defense if you are weak up the middle, and it appears the Cardinals are building from the middle in a very specific way in 2017. While the first two picks are unable to begin talks with St. Louis until their season officially ends, Zach Kirtley has a shot of being [...]

How many times have we seen the Cardinals load up on college seniors in order to use their pool money elsewhere? This time, however, they got another lead-off candidate at the next level that fits the St. Louis mold of ‘dirt’ players. Kramer Robertson will not have to worry about his future while in Omaha, [...]

Just in case you needed another reason to follow the College World Series, the Cardinals have helped you out with their first pick in the 2017 Draft.

By far the best time of the year for baseball, the next month never gets boring in my opinion. It does help that the Cardinals are probably the most hated club in the game, but that will happen when you make playing in October a yearly party. The biggest reason for the continued St. Louis [...]
Many St. Louis fans went to sleep last night wondering if Matt Holliday was going to be able to play again this season. For a select group of Cardinal insomniacs, however, one message on Twitter made resting impossible. Industry buzz is that the Cardinals and Indians may be on the verge of a significant trade. [...]
On my drive back from Springfield, thoughts about what would happen if no trade was made were interrupted by another scary 9th inning for the St. Louis closer. With that in mind, Marco Gonzales may have plenty to say about how the Cardinals tackle the upcoming July 31st deadline. The sixth starter after March has [...]
