Derek Shore joins The Joplin Globe

[Brian Walton]

Our longtime Springfield beat reporter and prospect analyst Derek Shore is moving to Joplin to join The Joplin Globe as a sports reporter. He has been a huge part of The Cardinal Nation for the last six years and to say he will be missed is a tremendous understatement. I cannot be any prouder of Derek, who has a bright future ahead!

He said his goodbye this morning…

We were fortunate to have Derek. Always upbeat and very tuned in to what was going on. Congratulations. You only have some of the good ones so long. Will miss him.

Good Luck Derek. You won’t be too far from your old haunts. Enjoyed your posts and I am sure Joplin is getting a winner. I always wanted to ask you if you knew anything about the US Baseball operation in Ozark.

awesome

grats!

Health and wealth to you, Mr. Shore. You will be very hard to replace.

Thanks to Derek and the others who help Brian out with TCN. Now I have to add Joplin Globe to my favorites list. Break a leg.

[bicyclemike]

All the best, Derek! Joplin’s gain is TCN’s loss.

Oh, if that Mickey Mantle Holiday Inn is still there, stop by and check it out. 🙂

Who didn’t see this coming. The Cardinal Nation today, The Joplin Globe tomorrow and The Boston Globe soon to follow…..if I may, I would like to send Derek off to Joplin with a little poem:

– Dear Mr. Shore you were certainly never a bore
– Tears of both sadness and joy flow south with the thought of you not being our baseball mouth
– The Joplin Globe is sure getting a dandy on par with our very own Euro Dandy
– Some may say as sweet as candy
– Fear not what may lay ahead
– As this wonderful game is far from dead
– The Cardinal Nation has never seen a greater sensation
– Good luck dear friend!

Congrats Derek. Many thanks for great coverage, best wishes in your new job.

[Cardinals27]

Thank you Derek for all you did for Cardinal Nation. We’ll miss you!!

[Euro Dandy]

Congrats on landing a job you are passionate about. As Twain said, the key to success is making your vacation your vocation.

[BlackHillsCard]

Nice to see you’re back Pugs. You were missed around these parts.

Congrats Derek and blessings to your future endeavors.
