The 2019 class for the Cardinals Devil Magic Hall of Fame

Last year we unveiled the inaugural class for the Cardinals Devil Magic Hall of Fame, a place where we honor those who made some sort of Robert Johnson-esque pact while playing in St. Louis. The five inaugural inductees were Will Clark, Tom Henke, Gregg Jefferies, Craig Paquette, and Tony Womack. The criteria for eligibility is…

The Cardinals go off-brand by extending Miles Mikolas

On Tuesday, the St. Louis Cardinals announced that they had signed Miles Mikolas, 2018's surprise starting rotation revelation, to a four-year contract extension which will keep him in St. Louis through 2023. His contract will remain the same for 2019, but starting in 2020, Mikolas is slated to make $17 million per season. It had…

The Cardinals are one Dallas Keuchel away from being NL Central favorites

The transactions which the St. Louis Cardinals have made during the 2018-19 off-season point to an organization desperate to make it back to the postseason after three consecutive Octobers spent at home. The most obvious example of this is trading four  long-term assets in exchange for Paul Goldschmidt, who is scheduled to become a free…

Let’s recast “Homer at the Bat”, because at this point The Simpsons might just repeat the same episodes again

If the fact that I created a website devoted to baseball wasn't proof enough, let it be said that I am a very big baseball fan. Another thing I've been a fan of for basically as long is The Simpsons, a highly influential animated sitcom which satirizes American culture as poignantly and hilariously as anything I…

The St. Louis Cardinals Team of the 2010s

The 2010s have been, in the grand scheme of things, a glorious decade for the St. Louis Cardinals. The team won a World Series to start a franchise-record run of five consecutive postseason appearances. The team has had winning seasons in all nine of its concluded campaigns, and it is projected by most outlets to…

Should the Cardinals move Carlos Martinez to the bullpen to start the 2019 season?

Although Martinez has been the best Cardinals pitcher over the last several years, some believe he would be better suited as a relief pitcher.

The Cardinals stand to gain from baseball’s proposed rule changes

It is February 7, and despite teams not seeming to realize it with regards to free agency, baseball season is less than two months away (no, it isn't "baseball season" once the Super Bowl ends--watch basketball or hockey or soccer or NASCAR or something, guys). And what better time than now for Major League Baseball…

Don’t Overthink it: Bryce Harper and the Cardinals are an Obvious Fit

I’ve actually been sitting on the idea for this article since the St. Louis Cardinals acquired elite first baseman Paul Goldschmidt just before the Winter Meetings. My point was a pretty simple one: despite the addition of Goldschmidt, the Cardinals should still aggressively pursue Bryce Harper in free agency. He would perfectly fill an area…
