Former Cardinals Watch

Former Cardinal great Edmundo Sosa has hit his third homer of the game.

Why did he feel the need to record that while in his truck... with the seat belt on?

I mean... the thought process there... what???

"I'm going to head to the store to pick up a few... ohhhhh, wait! I need to record a Twitter video about the top 5 toughest hitters I faced in the major leagues!! Right now, as this is clearly very urgent! I must put everything on hold! There is an immediate need for people to know this!!"

Let the painter paint.

Paul Goldschmidt leaving the Yankees, the Sporting News reports.

Not surprising, I'm afraid. He had an unusually hot April and May (for him), and pretty much vanished after that.

Man, that deal has the potential to be truly bad times. I love Helsley like any Cards fan, but his collapse with the Mets was ominous.

I'm hoping that it was pitch tipping that he is able to correct, but yes, there's volatility built into a Helsley signing.

But he is walking in the well-worn path of Jack Flaherty, Dylan Carlson, and Tyler O'Neill to the elephant graveyard that is Baltimore.

Jose Martinez retired.

I enjoyed watching him hit and crossed my fingers whenever he was in the outfield. Good work Jose, enjoy your retirement.
