The ballot for the Cardinals Hall of Fame Class of 2023 was released on Thursday, with voting continuing through April 21. Fans will have the opportunity to vote for one of Joaquin Andujar, Steve Carlton, David Freese, Matt Morris and Edgar Renteria to take their place alongside the team’s numerous legends inside Ballpark Village. This…
With the Major League Baseball owners’ lockout officially in the rearview mirror of the baseball world, and Opening Day now just over a week away, the St. Louis Cardinals enter the 2022 season in a familiar place. Coming off of their third consecutive playoff appearance and second straight 90+ win campaign in seasons where Covid…
The first baseball game I ever attended was on September 5, 1998. I was 6 years old at the time, and went to the ballpark with my dad to see the hometown St. Louis Cardinals take on his favorite team growing up, the Cincinnati Reds. I’m sure my dad was secretly hoping I would become…
As we documented earlier this week, the St. Louis Cardinals have made some very good free agent deals over the last two decades. But they've also made some very, very bad moves. Today, we are going to rank those moves from the most terrible to the not-nearly-as-terrible-but-still-quite-terrible. As a reminder, we will only be looking…
If you’ve been near a TV or internet browser in the past few days, you know that Bryce Harper has signed an enormous deal with the Philadelphia Phillies, thus ending any pipe dreams of Harper suiting up for the St. Louis Cardinals. The Cardinals could still sign Dallas Keuchel (as this blog has previously advocated)…

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…
October baseball is upon us once again, and for the third consecutive season, the St. Louis Cardinals are not involved. This is only the second time since the late 90s that the Cardinals have gone three straight years without a postseason berth, so it's understandable why some fans are getting a little impatient. And for…
Heading into the final week of the regular season the St. Louis Cardinals had the luxury of controlling their own playoff destiny. If they simply took care of their own business in these remaining six games, they wouldn't have to worry about what anyone else did. But after two devastating losses to the Milwaukee Brewers…
Today, the St. Louis Cardinals played the Atlanta Braves in a game that began at 11:10 a.m. St. Louis time. Normally, I'm all for daytime baseball if it's on a weekend or a day when I have no prior commitments, but...today is Wednesday. I can't really watch baseball at my job, especially when the game…
At this point in the year, the St. Louis Cardinals will take any series win they can find as they try to scratch and claw their way into the postseason. Taking 2 of 3 from a divisional foe is certainly better than the alternative. Still, the nature of today's 4-3 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates…
