With LaRussa Clearly in Charge, the Cardinals Bring Back Aaron Miles

Sweat mother of god, what is this team’s fascination with Aaron Miles?!
The Cardinals toyed with the idea of bringing Aaron Miles back to the fold earlier this season but couldn’t find a way to wedge the utility infielder into the organization.

Tip of the cap to CardsDiaspora.com for finding this gem at opening day and sharing via Twitter:
Good for him to show restraint and not go with the cut-off sleeves or the tufts of back hair coming out the top. Sometimes style, even at Cardinal games, isn’t about what you did, but what you didn’t do.
Maybe he could have gone for a shredded bottom of the shirt look though, but only because that’s flattering on everyone.

Baseball is nearly upon us and that means new Cardinal commercials. We have done our homework and watched each and every one, linked them below, and have a few quick facts as well.
We don’t know why exactly the Cardinals need commercials, but we’re glad they still make them.
Ok, so you don’t put in the newly acquired Matt Holiday, but you do put in Fredbird. Twice. Update: We stand corrected.
