Airing of Grievances
Is it baseball season yet? Baseball should be a year round sport! Sorry, I’m much more comfortable criticizing MLB on Facebook. #AiringOfGrievances

You know things are going right…
You know things are going right for your franchise when your history of 100+ years without a World Series title actually starts becoming a useful marketing pitch to players. Sorry, had to get this one in there after all the funny Cardinals memes that have been posted the last few days. Go CARDS!

Shut it Down
We may have to shut down Bill’s Facebook account. Heyward is heading to the North side! I can’t wait to see the contract details! Go Cards!

Stings a Little
I’m not gonna lie, it stings to see Heyward leave the Cardinals for their rival. Stings more to see what ATL got for Shelby Miller. Heyward is a good player, and they’ll be even tougher to beat. However, if you think this is a done deal, you’d be sadly mistaken! I can’t wait for baseball…

Stupid Money
Stupid money. This makes Lester’s deal, and every other pitcher deal EVER, look great. David Price agrees with the Boston Red Sox on a 7-year, $217 million dollar deal. http://es.pn/1ODSSSu Posted by ESPN Baseball Tonight on Tuesday, December 1, 2015

Those Old Cardinals…
A shame the Cardinals are getting old, and can’t contend any more. Wonder what we’ll do with these two young studs pitching in the Arizona Fall League… 😉 See Cards fans, I told you the future is bright! Reyes is our #1 prospect, Weaver is #8. Marco Gonzales (#3) and Jack Flaherty (#2) are two…

Surprise Ending
Nice season by the Cubs. I think I’m just as shocked as Cubs fans at how it ended. A lot to be happy about though as the Cubs might be the World Series favorites next year. Outstanding job by the Mets scouting, and executing their plan to pound the Cubs hitters with breaking balls and…

Parent Connection
Little League has a Parent Connection newsletter and it’s pretty awesome. Kris Bryant’s dad was recently featured in the newsletter. He had some excellent advice for parents and players on topics such as: club ball vs little league, “less is more” from parents, and “don’t tie performance with confidence”. http://www.littleleague.org/learn/newsletters/ParentConnection/2015/tpco…
