Jocketty’s Greatest Hits Collection

…includes 30 songs on 9(!) CDs. Rare B sides, live recordings, and never released tracks – until now! The whole package can be yours for only $29.99!!!

Just kidding. With the trade deadline for 2007 approaching quickly for this year, I’ve decided to look back of some of Walt Jocketty’s player personnel moves over the [...]

ONE FINAL LOOK BACK AT THE RED OCTOBER MIRACLE

With spring training only 3 days away, I’m going to take one last trip down memory lane with a slightly different look at the St. Louis Cardinals march to the 2006 World Series Championship. I think what I’m supposed to say here is, read more after the jump. So everybody, JUMP! JUMP! A Mac Daddy will [...]

Rotation, Rotation, Rotation.

After more than a month off from blogging(is that a word?) I’m back to it. I took so long off because it seamed like the Cardials took the holidays off. And well, there just wasn’t that much to talk about. I was waiting on Mark Mulder, and Jeff Weaver to make up their minds about where they wanted [...]

ATTENTION KMART SHOPPERS, WE HAVE A BLUE LIGHT SPECIAL GOING ON RIGHT NOW FOR MLB PLAYERS IN ISLE 5.

As Cardinals fans, don’t you always get the feeling that the team is always shopping at Wal-Mart for their free agent players? While all the other teams do their free agent shopping on Rodeo Drive?

A look at the free agents signed this week. The upcoming Winter Meetings. And some football on the side.

Well as a big college football fan, I am really upset that USC and Arkansas crapped in their beds today. It’s very sad to watch two teams throw away victories. Both USC and Arkansas should have had won, maybe not easily, but they both should have won.  Now that I’ve watched both games, gassed up on two [...]

Gary Bennet     backup C
Eli Marrero     minor league utility player
I’m am very pleased by everyone of [...]

Turkey Hangovers and *Of The Year* Awards

Well it’s “BLACK FRIDAY“, A.K.A the day after most of America gorged themselves on turkey and all the fixins. I hope all of you out there got to at least enjoy yourselves a little bit. I for one know how terribly awkward, annoying,  frustrating, and down right brutal big family dinners can be. And yesterday started [...]

Eating Crow. $100 Million Dollar Payrolls. And the return of the Imperial.

I am sure glad I am not a betting man. At least not on football games. And I hope no one took what I wrote yesterday as gospel.

Year End Awards, And The Big Game.

Well, it’s that time of year again. All the *Of The Year* awards are being given out. So far, the AL/NL Rookies & Managers of the year have been given out. And the AL/NL Cy Young awards as well. We only have the MVP’s of both leagues left and they are coming next week. As [...]

The Silent HotStove Topic

There’s a lot of analysis of statistics during the hotstove season and many, many, many scenarios are tossed around. People make a case for their latest trade theory and then others knock it down or support it. There is one thing that is not discussed too much however. What kind of influence does the professional [...]
