My 2015 Postseason Playoff Predictions
The regular season is about to begin in Major League Baseball. I included a lot of stuff in my postseason awards blog that I decided to add an additional blog for my predictions (or at this point somewhat educated guesses) at the 2015 Playoffs. Let me start by reminding you of the final standings I’ve […]
My 2015 National League East Predictions
Continuing with my March assignment for the United Cardinals Bloggers, it’s my National League East Predictions blog. This is the first time I’ve done a division at a time predictions. The team at the top of the NL East seems to be a unanimous choice but after that it gets all messy 1. Washington Nationals […]
If I Could Go Back to Any Game
The January United Cardinal Blogger project is a fun one. If I had a ticket and a time machine which game in Cardinal past would I attend? I went to the last regular season game at old Busch Stadium and the first at the new Busch. I got to experience the final game of the […]
It’s World Series Time!
Yes the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Los Angeles Dodgers like I predicted as did the Boston Red Sox by beating the Detroit Tigers. Got both of those right. Sorry to all my Tigers fan friends. I wish Jim Leyland the best in his retirement. Remember he was a Cardinals scout before he took your […]
Family and the League Championship Series
Well, so far I have gotten the ALCS right and half of the NLCS. Things change with five games on how I think about the rest of the postseason. That’s why I am updating my LCS predictions now. Also, I am still furloughed, so I have the time. American League Championship Series: Detroit Tigers vs […]
2013 Post Season Predictions
Since I am shut down today, I figured I would get a blog out. Might as well do my post season predictions. Good luck to all of the teams out there! Wild Card Games: Pittsburgh Pirates vs Cincinnati Reds. I see Pittsburgh winning this one game. Francisco Liriano will do a good job of keeping […]
Hunt For Red October
With less than two weeks left in the regular season St. Louis Cardinals fans are getting that itch for postseason. The Cardinals are tied for first place in the National League Central Division and their magic number to clinch a birth in the playoffs stands around 5 as I am writing this. So let’s just […]
In The End, It Was a Good Year
I was among many local bloggers and or writers that picked the St. Louis Cardinals to go to the World Series. I believe most of them did it with a biased heart. They were filled with hope. Call me maybe a little guilty of that myself. I thought there would be little drop off. That […]
That Wacky Wild Card Friday
It started with two pitchers each playoff rookie manager trusted. It ended with some interesting actions by one team’s fans, a player retiring, and one quoting scripture that sounds like he probably won’t be coming back to that team. The commissioner’s office got what they wanted. I heard someone call it a WWE title match […]
Season’s Reflections and Post Season Preview
Well 162 games are down the drain and Major League Baseball is down to 10 teams in the playoffs. This season had a different feel for me with my beloved St. Louis Cardinals. There was some interesting high expectation and I think the Cardinals finished about where I thought they would by making it into […]
