Besides the completely incredible Star Wars cameo (my wife said afterwards she thought I was going to come out of my chair when the theme started playing and I’m surprised I didn’t), the one thing that most everyone will [...]
It’s been a rough winter for many in Cardinal Nation. Snow, ice and bitter cold seem to have been our constant companions.

Apparently Adam Wainwright has been hanging out with the Cardinals’ president of baseball operations, because John Mozeliak threw one heck of a curveball at the roster yesterday. Jordan Hicks, who was the first player demoted to minors camp, became the last person to make the opening 25. While Mo and company had talked about all [...]
With the regular season now behind us, it’s time to turn to that annual tradition we have around these parts. No, not that one yet. No, we’ll get to that one. Man, that one is in the spring. No, it’s time for the third annual Top Cards on Twitter event! In 2015, we kicked this [...]
