Let the games begin!

I love this time of year. Spring training. If we could just get some weather here in Omaha to go along with it.

Today the first games were played in the Grapefruit League to which my beloved St. Louis Cardinals belong.

And they started off with a win.

The most impressive part were the 3 scoreless innings pitched by Adam Wainwright who is looking for a spot in the starting rotation this year.

You might recall that Wainwright was the Cards' closer during their playoff run last year.

Here's to hoping for back to back Series' titles.

This is a shout out to my teammate Dustin, a long-suffering Pirates fan.

will you surpass the mega million spending major market team from Chicago? this division is up for grabs! It is awfully tough to repeat world champions, just ask the White Sox!

Hey, Tim! Are you going to check out a game this season on the new Cardinal stadium?

I just ordered my mlb.tv subscription for the season, so I am ready to go.

BTW, the Twins prove yearly that it is more than just the spending!

I would love to go to a game at the new Busch. But if it is anything like last year they will be completely sold out.
