Luna for Belliard

Apparently, the Cardinals traded for Ronnie Belliard today. They gave up Hector Luna, who they got from the Indians for nothing in the Rule V draft 3 years ago. So long term the Cards got Ronnie Belliard for nothing. Luna is only 26 and can already hit well for a middle infielder, but his fielding […]

How the Cardinals can win it all
Posted by Bobo Hilario | 9:00 am | Cardinals | Comments: 3
Clearly, the Cardinals are not as good as the Cardinals of 2004 or 2005, teams which failed to win it all. So how are they going to win it this year? Here are my keys:
Make the playoffs. Duh. The truth is that any team that makes the palyoffs has a descent chance of winning. The chance […]

Notes from Cards/Dodgers

Some more thoughts as the Cards take on the Dodgers.

Cubs…win? Houston says, “We don’t stink just for Roger: we do it for Oswalt, too!” as complete game wasted.
Yeah, That Might Help

Jeff Weaver, recently DFA’ed, is a Cardinal: while not great, there’s a good chance he’s better than Suppan or Ponson.

Twenty words each on the NL Central All-Stars:
Albert Pujols, 1B (STL) - “Starting at first base, having received three point eight bajillion votes, the most of all players, the Cardinals’ Al-berrrrrrt Puuuuu-jollllls!”
Scott Rolen, 3B (STL) - Thanks to David Wright, a reserve player this year despite returning to 2004 form after 2005 season shortened by […]

You know Bud Selig and MLB have image problems when Jose “Surreal Life” Canseco’s comments on steroid policy have credibility.

Cards/Braves notes
Posted by Bobo Hilario | 9:39 pm | Cardinals | Comments: 0
Some random notes while I watch my Cardinals take on the Braves:
This is not quite the NL powerhouse struggle ESPN had in mind when they scheduled this game.
I am pleasantly surprised that Rick Sutcliffe is calling the game instead of Joe Morgan. But Sutcliffe just said that La Russa was “playing the numbers” when […]
