The St. Louis Cardinals take on the Detroit Tigers in game one of their series this evening at 5:40 pm CST.
Monday's opener of a three-game series between the St. Louis Cardinals and host Detroit Tigers was postponed due to inclement weather in the forecast. The teams will take the field for a straight doubleheader Tuesday at 3:40 p.m.
Whiteyball Changed the game in the 1980’s
My first era as a baseball fan was the 1980s. Things were different back then. Astroturf was a LOT more popular during that era. There were only two divisions per league, so the Cardinals were in the East. How strange is that? As a kid, my main worry was the... NY Mets. My dad would yell at the tv, making fun of many of the Mets players names and possessing a derision somewhere between playful and utter.

These are not your old Tigers, although it’s not clear they are actually good either.
Something interesting about yesterday’s loss is that normally a loss like that is devastating for more reasons than one. In order to get to the 11th inning and be put into that situation, you will use all your good pitchers and squander great pitching. If you can call it a bright side, the Cardinals’ loss is only devastating by wins and losses. A fact...
The Cardinals, going for the series sweep, lost a heartbreaker Sunday afternoon 4-2 against the Mets in 11 innings.
In a game that saw very little offense by either team, St. Louis found themselves up a run in the 11th inning on a Brenden Donovan RBI single. With the lead Mathew Liberatore trotted back out for his 3rd inning of work out of the bullpen. Liberatore was able to get two quick outs on a Tyrone Taylor ground out that advanced the ghost runner to third and a Jeff McNeil...

The right-hander has shuffled his pitch mix yet again and is showing some tweaked pitch shapes as well.
Lance Lynn is a fastball pitcher. We all know that by now but I wanted to start with that statement because I fear that it gives us a limited perception of Lynn. We all know what he does - throw fastballs - so we don’t look under the hood too often.
But that’s what I want to do today.
It would be notable if Lynn had stopped throwing fastballs but that’s not...

Cardinals face the Mets with Sonny Gray on the mound.
The Cardinals are on the road to take on the Mets in an afternoon tilt. Sonny Gray will be on the mound, hoping to continue his excellent start to the season. They will face right-hander Adrain Houser and his 7.45 ERA.
A Saturday open thread.
Good morning, Viva El Birdos!
It’s Saturday morning and the day is yours. Talk about what you wish. The Cardinals play at 3 pm. We’ll have a Game Thread to discuss it.
In the meantime, chat. Or chat not.
The New York Mets got their first look Friday at the player they hope will be the missing piece for their inconsistent lineup. That player -- J.D. Martinez -- and the Mets then got a look at what already is the strongest part of the St.
Burleson and Contreras provide the offense with home runs while Mikolas does his tightrope walk effectively
First pitch: 6:11pm CST at Citi Field in Queens
Top 1: Donovan grounded out, Contreras walked, and Nootbaar hit into a double play
Bottom 1: Nimmo doubled, Marte singled, Lindor flied out into foul ground, and then Miles Mikolas did his Houdini act and pulled a double play rabbit out of his top hat, which meant that Pete Alonso grounded into a double play, Crawford to Gorman to...

Sonny Gray has been stumping hitters through his first three starts of the season. Since returning from injury, Gray has started three games and didn’t allow a run in his first 17 innings of the season.

I probably said this a bunch last year. But I was ultimately proven wrong when the Cardinals ended up being way worse than I thought they would be as a sub-.500 team.
This year, it feels a little bit more accurate to point this out, but the Cardinals’ start to the 2024 season is giving me major 2007 vibes.
Believe it or not, I remember how that season went, and it did not turn out well for the Cardinals. I remember thinking years later that this was...

Masyn Winn can sure jump high
Baseball has a weird ability to affect my mood, despite being a long season where fortunes could change quickly. It affects the mood of the fanbase similarly it seems. When the Cardinals win, spirits are relatively high and there is at least a modicum of optimism in the air. When the Cardinals lose, especially in a dispiriting fashion, the season is over. Declaratively, there is no chance the Cardinals can possibly make up 5 games...

Now we stop talking about being 0-7 in series’ finales
Pre-game notes
Cardinal’s look to end 7 game losing streak in series’ finales, and thus salvaging an otherwise disappointing homestand with a series win. The last time they won a finale, it was Adam Wainwright Guitar Day. Early game today, getaway day for the Cardinals, as they travel to New York City, then Detroit. This series is a quick...The St. Louis Cardinals are 10-14 and finish a series with the Diamondback today. Last night they got blown out 14-1 by the Diamondbacks. They will head to New York this weekend for a three-game series against the Mets.
The St. Louis Cardinals sent former top-prospect Jordan Walker to Triple-A on Wednesday. Walker was the Cardinals top prospect going into 2023 and was the no.
