Hopping on the bandwagon. Officially.

10/23/2011 6:50:53 PM

God I fucking hate Holiday. We could be up huge if he didn't hit into a double play or strike out every fucking time he's up with runners on base.

10/24/2011 9:44:30 PM

feast or famine

and he's starving right now

10/24/2011 9:52:37 PM

Pujols had his chance and swung at ball four. Coulda been bases loaded no outs too after the walk to Holliday. Poor hitting performance by the whole team. Oh well. Gotta win 2 at home and Jaime was great last time.

10/24/2011 11:56:55 PM

Game just got postponed. This is great, cause it allows for Carpenter to pitch in Game 7 if we win tomorrow.

10/26/2011 3:25:57 PM

Why is mediocre Colby Lewis so good in the playoffs?

Hopefully Jaime brings the same stuff he did last start and MH and LB start hitting.

Cards win tonight I would feel really good about tomorrow.

Redbirds look like NC State tonight.....

10/27/2011 10:58:33 PM

State won its last game, thank you.

10/27/2011 11:17:47 PM

Trade Holliday....keep Craig.

Feeble was right, Holliday sucks a big one in the postseason.

Holy crap. I don't even know what to say. I have never seen any sports game that was more amazing, and was filled with more ups and downs. That might be the best baseball game ever (and yes I know that is a totally unmeasurable statistic). Wow.

10/28/2011 1:11:39 AM

Jim, close, but not quite. Game 7 of 2001 between the Yankees and the Diamondbacks. One of the only games the Yankees lost after which I was not totally depressed.

Oh, and you are welcome Red Bird Fans for breaking the jinx.

thx cards

I bet $1 on them winning the World Series when they were 10.5 out in August. Now I have enough money to buy Delaware.

hope this doesnt hurt with Pujols coming back. Gives him a little more of an out if he wants to try to succeed somewhere else.

10/31/2011 10:31:36 AM

Thank god. He was the worst thing about the postseason.

Tito Francona coaching our Cardinals???

Francona, Sandberg (lol at Cubs if this happens), Joe McEwing, Oquendo, Mike Matheny, Terry Pendleton all rumored to interview.

McEwing apparently is the brightest young manager in the game. Coached the Winston Salem Dash and got manager of the year. Later was the Knights skipper this past year and is supposed to be third base for White Sox big league team in 2012. He's also a scrappy former player who is very young.

11/3/2011 2:19:29 AM

give me this years team and add Wainwright back, and I'd be able to coach them to at least a .500 record

11/3/2011 7:25:02 AM

Well this team has a new manager for the first time in the history of TWW.

Welcome aboard Mike Matheny. If he is half the manager as he was a catcher, we will be fine.

11/15/2011 9:43:32 PM

I am getting really nervous about the whole Pujols thing. Fortunately, the marlins just pulled their offer off the table, so he won't be going there. I think he wants to stay in St. Louis, he just wants to also get paid.

Pujols to the angels, done, sources say

"Tim Brown of Yahoo! Sports reports that Albert Pujols will sign a 10-year deal with the Angels worth between $250-260 million. That certainly qualifies as a shocker. Everyone was talking about the Marlins as the biggest threat to sign Pujols away from St. Louis just 24 hours ago, but the Angels came out of nowhere with what will be one of the biggest contracts in MLB history. According to Brown, Pujols made up his mind Thursday morning and the contract includes a full no-trade clause. Stay tuned for more details. "

12/8/2011 10:08:02 AM

That's it. Fuck St. Louis. I'm now a Cub fan.

12/8/2011 10:10:47 AM

lol @ ESPN taking credit, being a few minutes behind Yahoo

12/8/2011 10:31:46 AM

Call me crazy, but this is a good move by STL. $25 million to a guy that will be 42 when the contract ends.

Now go trade for Hanley and we will be fine. Prince a possibility? Lol that would be funny to Brewers fans. How much does Prince want 17-18 million?

2012 NL Central Champs. Mark it down.

LOL, you're really going out on a limb there, Kreskin.

Defending world champs playing in arguably baseball's worst division.

12/23/2011 3:40:09 PM

So weak it had the Wild Card team and eventual champion right? Central has been better than the West several years running. Plus having 6 teams, it obviously means more chance of good and bad teams in it. I hate to see the Astros leave, but it needs to be even across the board. And wait a minute, aren't you a Cubs fan? They are the reason, along with Pitt, that the Central bottom is weak.

Re: cubs

No shit they are part of the reason.

But c'mon, St. Louis will be prohibitive favorites this year. The Reds and and Brewers might get a few token preseason votes.

Oswalt in now. I would assume Westbrook becomes the odd man out and the long man.

Best in the bigs?

1/28/2012 11:01:31 AM

best in NL, no doubt

I still think the Yankees with CC, Nova, Kuroda, Pineda and Hughes/Burnett/Garcia is the best in MLB

they're saying Pineda is going to be a stud

1/28/2012 11:26:11 AM

1/30/2012 12:14:27 AM

Pineda just needed run support.

1/30/2012 12:23:14 AM

Pineda also pitched in one of the two best pitcher's parks and now is going to one of the worst.

Sucks about Oswalt, I assumed it was a done deal.

1/30/2012 12:24:52 AM

Sorry but, I do not believe the Cards have the best rotation in the NL.

EDITed to refer to my actual feelings haha.

No doubt huh? Both the Phillies and Braves have comparable rotations, but it's hard to argue for either the Cards or Braves given all of the injuries on each rotation the past year. If the Cards get Oswalt and Wainwright is healthy, then yeah they have a stout rotation.

Also LOL at the Yankees having the best rotation. What the fuck are you smoking?

1/30/2012 8:37:54 AM

I just saw a Cardinal and a Blue Jay on the same tree in my backyard. It's fate. Should be an interesting World Series
