Psst, 50 days until an ump yells "Play Ball" - and it counts

oh yeah, just 7 days until Cardinals' pitchers and catchers report too.

So we got that going for us... Which is nice

If they start out bad, maybe Cora won't be coming back with them.
The long winter hasn't done much to get our hopes up.
Can't blame the manager, though. New GM has only added Giolito while Baltimore, NY, and Toronto get even stronger.

We open with a 3-game series with the Dodgers - A freaking loaded team by any measure.

Next up with San Diego - another loaded team - lead by the manager who the Cards fired after he led the team to a record win streak. BTW, his replacement had the worst record since the 80s last year...

Finally, 4 games against the NL pennant winning Diamond Backs

Rough start.

At least to start the season.

He was only AA last year. In my opinion, he's by far our b est CF with Edmon hurt. And he's so good running the bases that he can turn walks into doubles

I'm pulling for the guy, but the Cards are a cautious bunch... so I doubt it
