Viva El Danup

Are you like me? Have you not edited your RSS feeds since 2004, or whenever it was you first discovered RSS? If that’s the case–for that is the only reason, I would imagine, that you would have GUB and not Viva El Birdos in your RSS folder–then you will be pleased...

Moose

World_series_x_ca94
It’s not often I go non-Cardinals on this blog, but wow–who would have guessed that Mike Mussina would finally pick up win #20 a year after he looked completely done? I don’t think a third of an inning has ever helped an uninvolved player’s Hall candidacy more...

Good luck with that, buddy

Mlb_jun_11_ce9a
Kennedy to Cardinals: Play me or trade me. Well, alright. Look, I–let me pull it up. Yeah, I was on the record as stating that the Adam Kennedy signing was a great deal (additional pullquote: “… with Blake Hawksworth and Chris Narveson pretty close to the majors&...

Top Seven

Picimg_mlb_mar_13_5497
I’m always late to the party. Derrick Goold and the UCB (I can’t see that without thinking Upright Citizens Brigade) have already done their Top Seven blogs, and they’re all well thought out. That means there’s room, in the market, for one that’s not well...

Roundup

I’m hard at work on my own (several days late) top seven prospects, because it’s what all the cool kids are doing, but in the interest of breaking up my usual two month gap between posts: a roundup. Over at Future Redbirds Erik brings a new Cardinal signing to our attention...

The Silver Machine

8c
The internet hive-mind strikes again: apparently The Machine is not quite a phantom nickname so much as an abandoned one. Commenter Dave Newman suggests that, according to This Week in Baseball, the rest of the Cardinals began calling him by that name at some point; zip goes even further...

Glaused Over, pt. 2

Troy_glaus_is_4422
As promised–as promised late, even–a look at how players with less of a reputation for inconsistency perform when subjected to the arbitrary measure of removing their five best calendar weeks. Here is what we have, from Troy Glaus, to measure by. Glaus’s 740 OPS is...

Glaused Over

Dodgers_v_angels_db8e
At the Cardinals game last night (eww) I was surprised to hear continued criticism, from the people in the stands, leveled at Troy Glaus. Wait–given the game, it’s prohbably best to say that I was surprised to hear criticism leveled specifically at Troy Glaus. After all...

Fearless Carpenter Prediction

Five innings, two runs, four strikeouts, three walks. How, you ask, do I make such predictions? Science.

Anthony Reyes Traded

Picimg_mlb_feb_21_abfc
It’s fitting: on a day in which Dan Haren leads the National League in ERA, the Cardinals have traded Anthony Reyes. The haul is a minor league righty reliever, old for his levels, who will have to get in line behind Mark Worrell, Jason Motte, and, if La Russa gets his way, Kelvin...
