Cardinals start migration to October
By Jake McCormick Unlike the 2006 St. Louis Cardinals, this 2009 team isn’t moving towards October with the momentum of a freshman girl’s hangover from mixing Blue UV vodka, pink lemonade, and a few shots of Sauza tequila. Instead, the Cardinals are vying for home field advantage, and are gaining confidence and strength faster than the main boss at the end of Bioshock. And … [Read more...] about Cardinals start migration to October
Brewers-Cardinals exchange: May the most mediocre man win!
By Melissa S. Wollering and Jake McCormick It’s safe to say that the NL Central is deadlocked in a tight race for who wants it the least. The division is similar to Toppers or Papa John’s pizza in that it’s good until you notice the higher quality competition made with better ingredients. The St. Louis Cardinals have been consistently holding the first place spot since early … [Read more...] about Brewers-Cardinals exchange: May the most mediocre man win!

Blue Jays Don’t Migrate to Milwaukee
By Melissa S. Wollering Doug Melvin and I seem to share a media relations philosophy that I wish I could impress upon others. A trade or acquisition rumor is a waste of time UNLESS it becomes worth it to explain to you why the rumored possibility was silly, unbeneficial and not going to happen. That doesn’t mean we can’t have fun and discuss the realistic price the … [Read more...] about Blue Jays Don’t Migrate to Milwaukee
50% of 162 is…uhh…Where’s my Calculator?
By Paul Schmidt The halfway point of the baseball season has been reached for the Chicago Cubs. Suffice it to say, things didn’t quite go as planned. What has happened? What will happen? Let’s take a brief, brief look back (mainly because that’s all I can stomach) and then a glance at the future as we try to figure out where this team is going to take us in this wild and … [Read more...] about 50% of 162 is…uhh…Where’s my Calculator?
DeRosa fits in Cardinals’ puzzle
By Jake McCormick The St. Louis Cardinals made the first major move in the 2009 NL Central Division race by trading for former Chicago Cub and fan favorite Mark DeRosa. Call it pay back for taking Jim Edmonds. Mark DeRosa was the caulk of the 2008 Chicago Cubs. He could fill in at any position (except catcher) and put up career numbers in home runs (21) and RBIs (87). … [Read more...] about DeRosa fits in Cardinals’ puzzle
St. Louis Cardinals Streaking!
By Jake McCormick Baseball is great because it can be so unpredictable, yet so easy to understand. Case in point: the St. Louis Cardinals and their past 18 games. Ten days ago, the team was on the losing end of a sweep from the Brewers and had lost seven of nine games. Since that point, St. Louis did a Michael Jackson 180 and tallied a 7-2 record, including an always … [Read more...] about St. Louis Cardinals Streaking!
What’s Milwaukee Brewing: Interleague Interruption & Locker Room B-Line
By Melissa S. Wollering Bill Hall hits a two-out RBI single in the bottom of the 10th Sunday to beat St. Louis 1-0 and what does he do? Pivots like a runway model at first, leads the entire team up the dugout stairs to the locker room at cheetah speed and signals to the whining Cardinals that they can take Milwaukee’s untucked jerseys and SHOVE THEM. No high-fives, no … [Read more...] about What’s Milwaukee Brewing: Interleague Interruption & Locker Room B-Line
