The 2017-18 off-season was rife with rumors that the St. Louis Cardinals would make a big splash. Relatively speaking, they did, with the acquisition of Marcell Ozuna via trade from the Miami Marlins, but it wasn't the super big splash that had been rumored throughout the long Winter months. The reasons for not making these moves…
Red Schoendienst was a great player and manager, but an even greater ambassador for the St. Louis Cardinals.
Last night, the St. Louis Cardinals selected Nolan Gorman from Sandra Day O'Connor High School in Phoenix, AZ with the 19th overall selection in the first round of the 2018 Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft.

For the next four days, starting tonight, the Cardinals will play the Pittsburgh Pirates. This site has been around a little over a month and this is the third Cardinals/Pirates series preview I've written. I'm getting so sick of these teams playing each other, man. Look, I like baseball: I promise. I even, in and…
On Wednesday afternoon, Cardinals super-prospect Alex Reyes made his 2018 Major League debut in Milwaukee, delighting and then terrifying fans with his two-strikeouts-and-a-pickoff first inning and later being pulled from the game after just four innings.
