Amaury Marti is currently hitting .424/.509/.633 in 39 games for the Mexican Red Devils of the Mexican League, also known as Liga de Amaury Cazana. Bud Selig ordered the Cardinals to banish him to there, in fear of the major leagues losing competitive balance.
Amaury also refuses to accept the watch curse. He has the power to curse, and the power to bless.

Kary Booher has the rundown on the Springfield game. It’s a bullpen start as Mark McCormick goes back to get a medical opinion on his shoulder. Booher also name drops Justin Fiske (I believe Liam is the one who has been trumpeting the lefty recently) as a guy to watch. As much [...]

The one and only Keith Law of ESPN.com was recently kind enough to respond to a few of my questions on the Cardinals draft. I hope you enjoy his replies as much as I did. He made me feel a little better about Brett Wallace and Lance Lynn, and a little worse about the rest [...]

[UPDATE] Still not “imminent” but John Mozeliak is hopeful that first round draft pick Brett Wallace will be signed soon. He could be signed within the week (during the Cardinals homestand) and will probably take slot money (surprise, surprise). [/end update]
Blake Hawksworth will DJ your baseball game.
Bad news for Mark McCormick as he continues to [...]

It doesn’t take long for Robinson to get his name in the Memphis paper headlines.
Keith Law name drops both Jess Todd and Jaime Garcia as players to watch at the Futures Game. I’m more excited about the Futures Game than I am the All Star game being in STL next year. I will [...]

Keep in mind these are only rumors, not fact.
Brett Wallace has signed, the announcement is pending and should come Monday, when the Cards come home.
The Cardinals are really on Dominican 3B Roberto Pina, who sounds like he could be the Dominican version of Brett Wallace due to his quick bat, nice power and a thick lower [...]

While talking about Richard Castillo today, one of you mentioned the Cardinals are players in the hunt for obtaining the services CF Yorman Rodriguez, a Venezuelan hitter whose raw power rates as high as a 70 on the 20-80 scouting scale and has drawn some Carlos Beltran comparisons. One major problem however is that his [...]

After hearing the scathing reviews for The Love Guru, maybe I should quit referencing any Mike Myers films. Anywho, I’ve done a little asking/digging around as to what the deal is with the latest super sleeper Richard Castillo, the 18-year-old RHP who’s made the jump from to A ball just a season removed from pitching [...]

If you read the comments to yesterday’s DFR, the Futures Game selections are no surprise to you, but here is Kary Booher’s article about the Cardinal prospects selected. Congrats to the guys selected. I think it says a lot about the progression of the system that we had three players selected and Colby Rasmus isn’t [...]

I sat down to take a look at a couple of Motte’s outings. I’ve probably watched Motte throw about 10 innings on video so far this year so I’m pretty familiar with him. I charted the pitches from 6/8 & 6/10 to see whether he’s made any adjustments over the course of the [...]

What’s been going on? I leave town for a week to see the Cardinals in Boston and to catch a game at Yankee Stadium [sorry, I couldn't help the self-promotion, I'll keep it to a minimum] and all of a sudden the number of prospects to follow seems to have doubled and The Red Baron [...]

Someone tell me if the site looks right to you. I don’t know if it’s WordPress or my computer but the right sidebar is missing. (update-I figured out what was causing the problem.)
Luhnow was on hand for last night’s game at the QC, and he talks a bit with the local press about the direction [...]
