-this recap created by kindred, smuggled to you by dr. howl Last night was fun! Burly walked it off into the “we will see you tomorrow night” lawn. Let’smaintain the energy. For a supposedly-good pitcher Keller isn’t very intimidating, and we’ve gotour most ambush-capable lineup tonight. G...

The St. Louis Cardinals take on the Pittsburgh Pirates this evening at 6:45 pm CT. The game will be available on ESPN and on the radio on KMOX 1120 AM/104.1 FM.

Today, we are going to play a game of 3-dimensional chess. Ok, not really. I’m going to use the 3-dimensional chess metaphor to start down the road of anticipating the Cardinal’s strategic thinking in terms of talent acquisition. No, this isn’t going to be an article about the trade deadline (although...

The last time I wrote a series preview, it appeared as if the Cardinals were not eligible for the draft lottery. Derrick Goold has since reported that they are eligible and the main reason is that when they got the #7 overall pick, that didn’t count as a lottery pick. I begin this post this […]

With three big swings of the bat, Tampa Bay took the series finale from the Cardinals 7-2 Sunday afternoon at George Steinbrenner Field. An early 11:10 Central Time start was delayed by weather, with first pitch coming at 4:35 local time. Once the skies cleared, Tampa rained punishment down on St. Louis pitching. Much ...

The St. Louis Cardinals, in a season already not going their way, got even worse news on August 18 before their series opener against the Marlins. Brendan Donovan—their most consistent bat, their lone All-Star, and arguably the emotional center of the clubhouse—was placed on the 10-day injured list with a l...

The St. Louis Cardinals are finally seeing some of the few benefits of being completely inactive on the offseason market. After only signing reliever Phil Maton to the major league roster in the offseason, the Cardinals were betting on their young relievers replicating their success from previous seasons. A dangerous g...

I get distracted easily, and lately I find myself pondering the 2026 season (and beyond) more and not so much the current season. I will do a write-up or three on players still, and the usual end-of-season assessment, but really my mind’s eye is to the future. Yoda would be so disappointed. “Never his mind ...

Ah, how about this, for a nice cold frosty one of a recap, baseball fans? Pull up a chair and listen in! Top of the 1st Well now, it’s 7:36 PM, down there at George M. Steinbrenner Field. Lars Nootbaar, he just takes one deep, but it’s caught out in left field by Chandler Simpson. […]

On Wednesday, some interesting news came out, or rather, speculation. It came from Ken Rosenthal, so we know to at least take it at face value, and we certainly know that if he’s hearing something, it’s probably legit. But in a recent piece in The Athletic, Sonny Gray’s name came up. Gray’s name...

Intro The now 63-65 Cardinals are mired in the muck. Essentially playing out the string, while hanging on to the hope a miracle occurs. It has happened before. Except they actually have to assemble some wins in a row for such miracles to appear. The 61-66 Rays are also mired in mediocrity. At five under […]

It’s Opening Day 2027. The date is who the hell knows. Hopefully that day happens and it happens in April. With the departure of Sonny Gray, whose $25 million mutual option was rejected by the Cardinals, the Cardinals don’t have an obvious ace anymore. On top of that, they entered camp without knowing which...

Game Highlights Former Cardinal farmhand Sandy Alcantara overwhelmed the Cardinal hitters with his 100-mph fastball, while the Marlins BABIPed Andrea Pallante to death, aided by unhelpful walks. Marlins salvage the series finale 6-2. Line-up (and roster) machinations A getaway line-up if there ever was one. Only one pl...

There are 35 games remaining in the season. Many storylines and endpoints have been realized, come and gone with the rigors of baseball. The Brewers have won just under 80 games now, and we are really so many games out of first place, under .500 by a game. Outside of a collapse from another Wild […]
