Molina for MVP? And Other Thoughts

How to See 12.5 Hours of Baseball in Two Games
Thus far, I’ve been to two Cardinals games this spring/summer. Thus far, I’ve been at Busch Stadium a grand total of twelve and a half hours. Thus far, I’ve been to two of the Cardinals’ three home losses. The first game was of course the 20 inning marathon. Still had a great time due to […]
St. Louis Cardinals Thoughts, Broom Edition
The first month of the regular season wraps up tonight with the Cardinals taking on the Cincinnati Communists at Busch.

St. Louis Cardinals / NFL Draft Weekend Wrap
“Meh.” That seems to be the sentiment going around St. Louis this weekend after the draft. After everyone was set abuzz with the first overall selection of Sam Bradford, St. Louis seemed excited about football for the first time in years. The rest of the draft, however, was simply… Meh. Obviously my clairvoyant skills have […]
St. Louis Cardinals News – Rasmus = Boss, and Other Insights
Anyone else watching the game last night almost kinda-sorta hoping for a brawl? Obviously, Chris Carpenter getting in a fight and getting suspended/hurt would be quite a bad thing for the team, but I love his bulldog old school mentality.

Cardinals Thoughts, Post-Marathon

I’m sure most of you thought it was a crappy game, filled with missed opportunities, mistakes, and scorecard mismanagement by Tony LaRussa. All of the above may be true. […]
St. Louis Cardinals News – Penny for your Thoughts
Har har. I’m such a jokester with the title. Some Cardinals odds and ends from the last few days. Brad Penny looks good This signing was almost an afterthought in the offseason, due to the pressing demand to sign Holliday. But when the Cardinals picked up Penny early in the Hot Stove League, I thought […]
St. Louis Cardinals – A Weekend’s Reflection
Happy Opening Day! If you’re like me, you’re an overweight Asian man who sits alone most nights. Wait, that wasn’t my point. If you’re like me, you’re quite excited for today. The Red Sea is due to invade Busch this afternoon for the first game of the season at 3. One week into the regular […]
