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…
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.
