St. Louis Cardinals right-hander Shelby Miller has bounced back from two sub par outings and has now fanned 15 batters in his last 10 innings after tossing five shutout frames Tuesday.
Miller did not appear to be a strong consideration to make the Cards’ rotation out of spring training but it wasn’t completely ruled out until he was shipped to minor league camp in March....

I'm not a major league baseball player. You're not a major league baseball player. We're not in the minority; we're the vast majority. There is no shame in not having success in the highest level of a professional sport. Quite the opposite, it's an honor to be considered worthy of a chance to play in the Majors.Tyler Greene was drafted with the last pick in the...

Motte can't hold off Cubs in ninth
Former Cardinals utilityman Joe Mather delivered the game-winning, two-run single off Cardinals right-hander Jason Motte to give the Chicago Cubs a 3-2 win over the Cardinals Monday night. But a bigger at-bat might have been the 12-pitch (six foul balls at 3-2) by pinch-hitter Bryan LaHair that resulted in a one-out walk.
Motte then walked catcher Geovany Soto on four pitches and...

Semi-serious question... Just when does David Freese have time to get awesome at baseball?Dude would show up at the opening of my microwave during the off-season, but now that the season has started and he's off to a hot start, you figure his days of gracing every single thing ever with his person would be over, right?Not so much.Here's video of Freese on his off-day heading...

April 24, 2012
With a two-out, two-run walk-off single off St. Louis closer Jason Motte, the Cubs’ Joe Mather became Monday night’s unlikeliest hero. But all you had to do was ask him — before the traditional shaving cream pie to the face, of course — and he’d tell you (as he told WGN after the game) the man truly responsible for the Cubs’ ninth-inning rally was Bryan LaHair. The 29...

With the recent closure of the dispute between AT&T u-verse and FOX Sports Midwest, television viewing problems for St. Louis-area fans of the St. Louis Cardinals have pretty much been cleared up.
Those outside of the Cardinals-designated markets, however, must continue to rely on pay packages such as MLB Extra Innings or MLB.TV to catch their club on live video. Another vehicle...

Brewers-Cardinals Preview
Starting pitching has been the biggest reason why the St. Louis Cardinals are off to a solid start, allowing them to overcome an inconsistent offense.
Having avoided a third straight loss in their last game, St. Louis opens a three-game series against the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday night at Busch Stadium.
The Cardinals (12-7) won their first six series for the first time in team...
Should MLB players and social media mix?

By definition, commenting on blogs and message boards means a comfortable anonymity for the poster. Some take the freedom too far, overreacting and ridiculing, perhaps in part to boost their own low esteem.
With popular interactive social media such as Facebook and Twitter, the player and fan can interact directly. The outcomes aren’t always pretty.
During the off-season, when...
