Into the Cardinals Nest: Have the Cardinals Done Enough to Win the Central Again?

Into the Cardinals Nest: Have the Cardinals Done Enough to Win the Central Again?

The St. Louis Cardinals are never a team to sleep on. Anytime they fall behind or slump, they have always come back stronger than ever. This year will be no different. Many people think that the Chicago Cubs will take the NL Central title because of all their big acquisitions they’ve made. However, if there’s one thing the Cardinals have proven. it is that you don’t need a team full of the…

Some of the most famous Cuban baseball defectors in recent memory made a triumphant return Tuesday as part of the first MLB trip to the island since 1999.

HAVANA -- A lineup of Cuban-born baseball stars, including some of the most famous defectors in recent memory, made a triumphant return to the island Tuesday as part of the first Major League Baseball trip here since 1999.

Once the object of official disdain in Cuba for leaving the country illegally, Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig, Cardinals catcher Brayan Pena, and first baseman Jose Abreu and shortstop Alexei Ramirez of the White Sox were swarmed by fans and members of the state media in the lobby of Havana's soaring Hotel Nacional at the start of a three-day mission meant to warm relations between MLB and Cuba. The major leagues and Cuban baseball have been moving quickly to rebuild ties since Presidents Barack Obama and Raul Castro declared a year ago Thursday that they would re-establish diplomatic relations. The official return of baseball defectors earning millions in the major leagues was a landmark in the new relationship and a dramatic manifestation of Cuba's shifting attitude toward the hundreds of players who have abandoned the country that trained them.

"That's Amore!" National League Central: Is it Time to DH Both Leagues?

“That’s Amore!” National League Central: Is it Time to DH Both Leagues?

The topic of having a DH in both leagues has been around for a long time. The proponents suggest this would add some spice to the NL game. Rarely are pitchers good hitters. There have been many position players turned pitchers that could hit, but their stats didn’t show it. I think in recent history to Carlos Zambrano, Glendon Rusch, Mike Hampton and Dontrelle Willis. For those who are pro-DH,…
