Ah, baseball. The best sport. I am from eastern Missouri, and I watch as many Cardinals games as I can. I think I might have missed ten games last season. GO CARDINALS!
Agreed. My favorite sort as well, though the NFL is close for me. Probably not for you as they're taking your team away...
Cards are an interesting team this year. Not sure what to make of them. They barely did anything this offseason, and lost a bit of talent. All the while the Cubs have gotten better, and were the better team last year second half anyways. Cards always find ways though through their system. If Grichuk can cut down his Ks, he's going to be a legit top-flight power hitter in his league. Could be a RH Adam Dunn. He hits BOMBS. I see Brandon Moss bouncing back this year a bit too a full year removed from the hip surgery. A hopefully full year of health from Wainwright, hoping Carlos Martinez's arm troubles at the end of the year are a non-issue and continued growth from Michael Wacha. I think they bought nicely low on Jedd Gyorko too.
One of the more interesting teams to watch this season. I could see anywhere from a first place finish to barely over .500 and missing the playoffs..
