Cardinal Sin, diving into current Cardinals news, Cardinals news as old as it comes, and the travesty that is Bill White’s pending exclusion from the Hall of Fame.

@kello9980 Outstanding! Can’t wait to zoom in.

[OnlyCardsFans @OnlyCardsFans]

@AugieNash I hope it wasn’t the Cardinals medical staff

[OnlyCardsFans @OnlyCardsFans]

@bschaeffer12 I am a sports pessimist, so I’m terrified of this weekend. Very scared our CB will be on the availability report tonight.

But I was terrified of both last week too. It went ok.

[OnlyCardsFans @OnlyCardsFans]

@bschaeffer12 What I’m saying is that I respect the frustration and anger you’re feeling, and I hope for your sake that after this Saturday you get the comfort of knowing it wouldn’t have mattered anyway.

[OnlyCardsFans @OnlyCardsFans]

@bschaeffer12 I knew this person who had someone die of a medical infection, which made them very angry - since it was the doctor’s fault. Understandable. Terrible.

They were comforted when it was discovered that there was an undiscovered terminal cancer and that the ending was inevitable.

@baxoren I don’t have a particular fetish around money spent. I do have a particular fetish about aggressively improving the roster and taking risks. So if I see Herrera depart, for example, to plug a hole elsewhere, huzzah.

[OnlyCardsFans @OnlyCardsFans]

For this and more, I’m officially endorsing Scott as my media guy.

[Scott Plaza @MrPlaztastic17]

"Long-term plan"
"Blocking prospects"
"Payroll restrictions"

Blah. Blah. Blah.

Make the team better. Spend some money

@MrPlaztastic17 I just found a like soul on the journey.

[OnlyCardsFans @OnlyCardsFans]

@baxoren I don’t want them to sign a B grade 3B to a 4 year deal. I do want them to invest in pitching, which is such a huge quantity and need that it will never block anyone worthy, and bullpen arms in particular will never block future investments in time or money.

@wthballs WHAT

[Jeff Niehaus @Fly_The_L]

You can listen all at once, or do what I do and listen to 30 minutes per day so you're ready for a new one when Thursday hits. #STLCards

@drewmaniac Now there’s some value.

[OnlyCardsFans @OnlyCardsFans]

What does this mean?

“His season was a reminder of the value of the RBI”

What did his season remind us of? Did we forget the value of an RBI but Sal Stewart magically brought it back? Someone explain this to me.

[Charlie Goldsmith @CharlieG__]

Sal Stewart is the NL Rookie of the Year.

Winning player. Winning personality. His season was a reminder of the value of the RBI.

One memorable moment of his season was the opposite field homer vs. Misiorowski.

Misiorowski said this summer, “He’s an excellent player. It’s always good competition. He has a lot of contact and a lot of power. That’s a recipe in my book for a bad guy to face.”

[OnlyCardsFans @OnlyCardsFans]

@ArgusEyed365 @bschaeffer12 I think you should define it, and tell me what makes it ad hominem.

[OnlyCardsFans @OnlyCardsFans]

@ArgusEyed365 @bschaeffer12 I predict you don’t know what “predictive” means.

[OnlyCardsFans @OnlyCardsFans]

@valavineyards Cincinnati fans are constantly accusing us of being hypocrites on this situation, while no Cardinals fans are suggesting Burly is MVP - and no Reds fans either!

[OnlyCardsFans @OnlyCardsFans]

Also: good for Sal! Happy for him. Nothing against him personally. Nice year.

But his season…was a reminder…of how stupid some people are.

Which isn’t a reflection on him.

[OnlyCardsFans @OnlyCardsFans]

His season was a reminder….of the value of the RBI….to idiot voters.

Ok! This makes sense now!

[OnlyCardsFans @OnlyCardsFans]

@AugieNash You back yet? Is this you?
