Cardinals News

The Cardinals are riding a wave of mixed emotions after their decisive 6-1 victory against the Nationals, but there are deeper issues lurking in the shadows. While Jordan Walker teeters on the brink of a breakout with a solid .295 average, the drama surrounding Dustin May's catastrophic 15.95 ERA raises eyebrows and questions about the pitching staff. The injury bug has unfortunately bitten again, as minor league reliever Packy Naughton faces yet another setback with a severe elbow issue. Meanwhile, the thrill of baseball shines through the rare excitement of two straight steals of home, a reminder that amid the struggles, the game offers fleeting moments of brilliance. With the Cardinals sitting at 7-5 and a run differential of -3, there's promise but also a need for immediate adjustments to reclaim their standing.

Cardinals’ Hidden Problem: McGreevy Is Playing With Fire Thus Far
It’s a long season that’s just getting underway, but the St. Louis Cardinals are performing in some surprising ways. Jordan Walker…might be a thing? (Crosses  fingers, avoids black cats, throws salt over shoulder. Let’s just do everything we can do to manifest it for this kid.) JJ Wetherholt looks to be the player advertised. Matt […]

Early look at one thing every Cardinal player could improve
It’s difficult to know what to write about this early in the season, because any stats you share are required by law to have the small sample size disclaimer. We all understand this. But it’s not like we can just ignore how players are doing. I wanted to take a post off from my Winter […]
