What looks like an innocuous Spring Training fluff piece on Reyes and his quest for a low fast ball troubles me a tad. Especially this par...

Last night I had the pleasure of discussing the Cards' off season and outlook for 2007 with Red Hot Mama. I haven't had a chance to...

I can't believe I forgot the Florida papers: TC Palm - Covers a lot of teams but has at least three articles about the Cards up right n...

It's finally finally here! Although this was the shortest off-season ever. Anyway, here are some helpful links for those of us stuck i...

Is it really possible we haven't heard who P.A. is? Well, no. Not to get all On The DL on you, but I know which Cardinals player is nam...

Well, see, here's the thing. The Proxy & I bought a house and pretty much all free time has been devoted to paint and sandpaper and...

Arugh, five-year deals for pitchers. Don't like 'em. But if that's what it takes to keep Carp around , I guess that is what it...

You know what else happens when you sit through a rain out and another game in late October? You get violently ill for a while. So, yeah. ...

We got to the stadium early enough to see some warm ups. Our seats were along the third base line and Verlander was doing some long toss in ...

I'm not married and I don't have kids. Maybe those days are better than yesterday, but I don't see how. I'll be at the para...

I honestly have no idea how I'm going to make it through this game. I'm already a nervous wreck. And the day is going by soooo sll...

This picture is eerily similar to Jimmy's diving catch in the 2004 NLCS, both end results being excellent for the Cards. Photo by Jed Ja...

I'm going to Friday's game. Will from Deadspin is going to Friday's game. He's bad luck. I'm scared. But...the way the...

That was miserable. Drove home through a light mist, thinking, "Oh, they can play in this no problem." The rain was still pretty l...

That's the Carpenter I know and love. And Zumaya? you may be able to throw 100 mph, but if you can't get near the plate, how can y...

Ever wonder what the big-wigs do the night before the World Series? I hadn't really either, until I got the opportunity to go to the 200...

There's nothing that can be done about it now. Rogers washed his hand (as directed by the umpires) and while any remaining residue may h...

Cheater.

We won a World Series game. The first World Series game won by a National League team since 2003. Reyes was out of this world . 17 retired ...

I kept saying things like "house money" and "everything else is gravy." And I believed those things. I had almost conv...

I...I...I just don't know what to say right now. This team won 83 games during the season. 83. And they are going to the fucking WORLD...

I again got last minute tickets for Game 4. I did not lose my voice. Poor bullpen. It's like all those runs they didn't allow before...

I got last minute tickets. I lost my voice. The first playoff game I went to was Game 3 against the Mets in 2000. The Cardinals didn't...

The Gooch! Speezer! Molina! Bullpen!!! Jimmy! I figured the Cardinals would win this game, but I thought it would be because of Carpenter. ...

How much can you really ask of Weaver? He pitched one hell of a game, made one (very) bad pitch to Beltran, and left with the L. Weaver de...

We've been there.

The Cardinals MUST resign Belliard next year. We're playing with house money here, folks. The Cards aren't supposed to be here. Th...

Weaver=2 freakin hits??? Bullpen=no runs??? The terrible horrible Cardinals=Up 2 games to none??? Life is good.
