Okay, I have now sufficiently recovered from the last three games of the NLCS.   Time to get started on 2013
For starters, Mozeliak has nearly all of his 2012 roster returning, with a few notable exceptions.  
 -   Lance Berkman and his $12M salary from last year will not be returning.   His knee problems have him thinking retirement.  With Allen Craig's advancement in 2012 and with Carlos Beltran signed for next year, there wouldn't have been an obvious spot for Lance to play anyway.    Always hate to see…

I was very saddened today to hear the news of the passing of Bob Forsch.   He was a mainstay of the Cardinal teams of my childhood....one of my first Cardinal heroes.
He was the only Cardinal to throw two no-hitters, and I remember vividly listening to the radio broadcast of each one.   I also remember well the 3-hit shutout gem he tossed at Atlanta in the first game of the 1982 NLCS, propelling the Cardinals on to Ring #9.   Just a true professional and a true Cardinal in every sense of the word.

For months we've been reading article after article about this potentially being Pujols' last year in St. Louis and what that means for the future of the franchise.   While Albert's situation has the widest-ranging impact, somewhat lost in the shuffle is the fact that we may also be witnessing Chris Carpenter's last year wearing the Birds on the Bat.   And it likely has little to do with Carp's so-so start to 2011.
The Cardinals have a $15M option on Carp for 2012, with a $1M buyout.   That $14M bogey might prove to be too much to spend on Carp at this stage…

I hope Matheny knows he doesn't have the equity TLR had with the Franklin situation. If Boggs blows up again, Matheny will deserve more blame.

Looks like Ty Lyons is being called up to make the start. Someone will have to go down, even if it's briefly. I wonder if it will be Martinez. Can't imagine they'll turn around and send Boggs out.

I assume Boggs being called is up so Kelly will fill Garcia's spot until Westbrook returns.

The injury bug is starting to spread. Jamie Garcia just can't stay on the field with his shoulder issues. I'm thinking it is time to have surgery on that thing and be done with it.

I remember last years start. got to about 10 or 11 over .500 and stalled out for the rest of the year. Here's to stayin' hot !!

Best record in baseball, as of this morning. The good news of that is that I really don't feel like this team has clicked on all cylinders yet.
