Haha…”Projects Position” Sounds like he’s on the management team at Pruitt-Igoe.
What about the size of needless job titles? I was just now made aware that the Cardinals employ three assistant general managers…Haha! Does it really take three guys to comb and style Girsch’s pretty head of hair? Or a better question may be, what purpose if any, does Girsch serve on this collection of gifted whiz-kids? What a waste…
Hope springs eternal and it’s baseball, so anything can happen. At any rate, the Redbirds will be in first place on 3/27/25 and as long as they emerge victorious over the Twins, they’ll still be in first place the following day. Did I say, “The Twins?”…Yep, anything can happen…
I’ll be highly surprised if the Nootz appears in 150 games in a season over the course of his career.
Yeah, me too, KCB. And for all I know, we may even win a few games…It’s baseball, so anything can happen. At any rate, at least it’ll be warm by the time the fellas start playing games that count in the standings.
The Winter Warm-Up photo of those fans standing outside of the ballpark with all that snow still piled up looks like a scene straight out of Desolation Row…I hate winter.
Johnny’s spot on when he claims that Matz provides depth to the rotation. You can’t hardly get any lower.
I’m going to miss him…
“Current priority 1, 2 and 3″…Johnny’s always talked out of both sides of his mouth. Now he’s talking out of all three sides…Old Johnny’s a genuine corker!
That’s probaby the reality, but Arenado will almost certainly be better prepared for retirement that Coco LaBoy…Now there’s a pretty good baseball name.
I’m guessing Sasaki will make more than Sadecki?
Thanks for that, 4Ever. I recall seeing a clip from the Carson show in which the Ueck told the story behind that team photo.
He often pointed out the fact that anyone blessed with the talent and ability to hit .300 can stick around in the Big Leagues. But to be a .200 hitter and still retain the ablility to trick people year in and year out was a much greater accomplishment…Mr. Baseball certainly possessed an incredibly rare sort of talent.
“Mr. Baseball” undoubtedly has a front row seat reserved in heaven. RIP, Ueck.
Winners create SRO conditions anywhere in the world. Although season ticket sales will undoubtedly suffer a substantial hit, if the Cardinals are significant in September, the ballpark will contain over 40K paying baseball fans for every home game during the stretch run. Same as it ever was. If not, expect a sad and empty baseball venue.
Yogi’s simple and straightforward thought mechanism has always been the essence and embodiment of genuine reason and logic…He was not at all unlike the modern concept of AI in the sense that the entire scope of his data storage and processing exceeded what mortal humans are able to analyze…And he could also hit!
All time best rotation in history and there’s a good chance not a solitary component will work 150 IP’ed.
I’m not buying.Boring’s bad enough. The cold’s worse. I hate winter.
Soft ‘n Gentle…
Haha…Yeah, like he did last time when he threatened to build a new stadium across the river in Illinois unless the city of StL. offered up a sweetheart deal. That Billy Jr. don’t play around!
The first Cardinal team to draw over 3M was the ’87 edition. By ’92 total attendance had decreased to 2.4M and had plummeted to 1.7M in ’95, which was the season following the labor strike in ’94 that scratched that year’s WS. We’ll see what happens, but I’ll be highly surprised if the Cardinals draw 2.5M paying fans in ’25. If only around 2M show up, Billy Jr. may threaten to move the team…Haha!
I guess hitters have evolved and pitchers haven’t?
Billy Jr’s. spawn has clearly indicated that if fans decide to stay away from the ballpark they’ll be faced with punishment in the form of the team spending less due to decreased availability of funds alloted towards the acquisition of talent. If Cardinal fans know what’s good for them, they’ll show up or else suffer the dire consequences…
There’s quite a few so-called members of a rotation that work a turn about every 6 weeks.
Yeah, there was no lack of first rate footwork with McGee. He was a 3 time GG winner at a time when the competition for that award included names such as Eric Davis, Andre Dawson and Dale Murphy. Willie could chase down the baseball and squeeze it for the out with the best of them.
