The Cardinals Are Horrible

 Posted on July 9, 2010  |  The Editor

Its not just the bullpen, or the starting pitching, defense or hitting…its everything. The Cardinals suck. Oh we’re only a few games out of first, and we certainly aren’t the Pirates, but for the St. Louis Cardinals, they suck. With this much talent they should be running over people but they aren’t. Its not they don’t have the talent they thought…its just that they flat out aren’t playing well. …so the question must be asked: Is this it for Tony LaRussa? [Read More]

Kansas City: Oh So Now You Have to Have a All-Star Game Too?

 Posted on June 15, 2010  |  The Editor

Kansas City, St. Louis’ little annoying sibling, just has to do everything we do. First we were like “It would be awesome if our football team was really terrible.” and then Kansas City thought that was awesome, so now the Chiefs suck, and now after our All-Star game last year Kansas City wants one of those too. Commissioner Bud Selig will be in Kansas City on Wednesday to formally award the 2012 All-Star Game to the Royals and Kauffman Stadium. [Read More]

Hey Aaron Miles! Got Any More Suck We Need to Carry In? Oh, Jeff Suppan’s Bringing the Rest? Great.

 Posted on June 11, 2010  |  The Editor

Oh man, we are so going to win the 2006 World Series again! Jeff Suppan is coming back to the St. Louis Cardinals. He will be joining the team in Phoenix and hopes to be active early next week. Oh yeah, Jeff Suppan, we remember him. The guy that Fox Sports Midwest dated exclusively for the three years he was here last. Every stupid little piece before the games was either about Jeff Suppan or included Jeff Suppan as we followed him go do something hilarious, like doing a regular person’s job. [Read More]

Don’t Worry About Pujols Becoming a Cub

 Posted on June 8, 2010  |  The Editor

By all accounts, Cardinals mega-star Albert Pujols is a really nice guy. So nice in fact that the fact he said anything bad about the Cubs’ stadium basically is the equivalent of us telling them that although old and quaint, their stadium is pretty overrated for a brick circle that makes me think more of a bull fighting right where the Cubs keep charging for that championship and whiffing each time than a baseball park.

Aaron Miles Isn’t Good at Baseball

 Posted on June 2, 2010  |  The Editor

We took a moment in our busy schedule to take in a ball game last night and were reminded that though St. Louis may be considered baseball’s “best” town, that doesn’t really mean we know the most about baseball. Imagine our fortune that we landed on the very game that Aaron Miles makes it back to the Cardinals, fresh from double-A Springfield. Pushing down poor Allen Craig who got to smell the sweet air of the Show just long enough to wonder if it was all just a dream. [Read More]

Pujols’ Agent Quits Firm

 Posted on May 27, 2010  |  The Editor

Pujols’ agent, Dan Lozano, pulled a Jerry McGuire Tuesday, leaving his prominent sports agency and taking with him his list of big time clients. “Danny Lozano has left Beverly Hills Sports Council, and we wish him well in his future endeavors,” said agent Jeff Borris. Lozano’s departure is likely to have major ramifications within the industry. Pujols, an eight-time All-Star and three-time Most Valuable Player with the St. Louis Cardinals, is closing in on free agency, and is expected to sign an enormous contract in the aftermath of big recent deals for Minnesota catcher Joe Mauer, Philadelphia first baseman Ryan Howard and others.

Major League Baseball Muffles Cards Beat Writer Leach on Twitter

 Posted on April 30, 2010  |  The Editor

Word is out that Major League Baseball has told their employed beat writers, who write for the MLB.com sub-sites for each time, must refrain from “tweeting” about anything other than baseball from here on out. These new restrictions hit home for local stlcardinals.com writer Matt Leach who’s widely followed Twitter account gets lots of use throughout the day. Aaron Gleeman reporting for NBCsports.com Multiple sources have confirmed to me that Major League Baseball is cracking down on Twitter usage, ordering MLB. [Read More]

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

 Posted on April 29, 2010  |  The Editor

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. That changed with Felipe Lopez’s right elbow injury. With Lopez on the 15-day disabled list with a strained ligament, the Cardinals signed Miles to a minor-league deal. Miles isn’t earmarked for the majors or even pegged to replace Lopez. [Read More]

Cardinals Played a Lot of Baseball Saturday Night

 Posted on April 19, 2010  |  The Editor

Total Game Time: 6 hours 53 minutes Players Used: 46 At Bats: 158 Pitches: 652 Walks: 19 Strikes Outs: 35 Retarded Tony LaRussa Moves: At least 3. The players found it exciting, the fans found it boring and Tony LaRussa found those pot brownies the Brendan Ryan was saving until after the game. “That’s the fist time I’ve been part of something like that,” said first baseman Albert Pujols. “That was pretty special right there.
