Yesterday, Major League Baseball announced that the Cardinals would have to forfeit their first 2 draft picks (56 and 75 overall) and $2M to the Astros for Chris Correa hacking their system. The penalty comes after months of investigation and a 46 month jail sentence for Correa. The general MLB public is mixed on the…

When you think about the other titles, they typically talk about something at the end of the movie: The Phantom Menace – the Jedi discover Maul halfway through the movie and Yoda comments on 2 Siths at the end. Attack of the Clones – the clones show up halfway through the movie and attack the…
StarWars.com; announced the title to Episode VIII today – The Last Jedi. Let the speculation begin. I’m not dealing in spoilers again (like the Force Awakens and Rogue One), but the title is very speculative. Is Luke the last Jedi? Does something happen to Luke and Rey is the last Jedi? Post your spoiler-free thoughts…
With Ivan Rodriguez making it into the Hall of Fame this week, it got me wondering about Yadier Molina. While Molina doesn’t have the offensive resume that Pudge had, he did take over the mantle of the best defensive catcher of his generation. Looking at Molina’s offense, he doesn’t really have a case. He has…

Every year when I get my Bill James Handbook, one of the first things I look at is the Manager Records. I enjoy seeing things like pitcher usage, tactics, and lineups used. As a Cardinal fan, we see more lineups a season than most other fanbases. In fact, Mike Matheny led the National League this…
After working out the numbers for Dexter Fowler earlier in the week, I’ve moved on to 2 youngers players for the Cardinals – outfielder Randal Grichuk and second baseman Kolten Wong. Both players are seen as keys to the future and both have a lot to prove after mid-season demotions last season. We’ll look at…
There were 2 distinct groups of Cardinal fans early in the off-season: those that wanted Dexter Fowler and those that didn’t. After the trade market blew up and Fowler signed, most of both groups were happy; he was the catalyst of the World Series Champion Cubs and filled the need for an outfielder (that didn’t…
On my last trip to Milwaukee, I picked up about 4 cases of beer that I can’t get in St. Louis. Revolution Brewing’s Anti-Hero IPA was in that load. The brewery is based out of Chicago and I’ve enjoyed the other beers I’ve tasted from them. ABV: 6.50% IBU: 70 Style: IPA – American Brewery…
