About Me

-
    Hello everyone, I am Matthew Inman. I am an avid sports fan, more specifically, I am a St. Louis Cardinals fan. I was born into a "Cardinals Family" as my parents and grandparents also root for the Cardinals. With that being said, I have been keeping up with Cardinals baseball since I was able to actually understand what was going on, which was roughly 2005. As I have gotten older and my love for the game has grown, I have found myself watching every Cardinals game. Those games that I cannot watch live because of school or work, I record and watch later. I know every player on the team, and I know all their strengths and weaknesses, and how they are doing when it comes to their performance. Some may say I am a bit too passionate about the team, but I don't think that is possible. I have cried tears of sadness, frustration, and joy while watching the games, and I do not plan on stopping anytime soon. With that being said, I want to introduce you all to the St. Louis Cardinals and the great sport that I know and love in a way that most media outlets won't, with true passion and excitement. I hope that my authentic reaction when it comes to the Cardinals, and the overall game of baseball can bring you some enjoyment, and maybe even make you a fan.

    To contact me with any questions about this great team, sport, or myself, please contact me using the contact form posted to the left of my webpage, and I will be sure to give you a quick and heartfelt response.

Zac Gallen & Sandy Alcantara - The Cardinals' Biggest Regrets

-
     Within the Cardinals community, one topic that has been rather prevalent in the last few years is, "What if the Cardinals never traded for Marcell Ozuna?" This question is of importance as the Cardinals gave up both Zac Gallen and Sandy Alcantara, for two injury-plagued seasons from the streaky left fielder. Gallen and Alcantara are now two of the best pitchers in all of baseball, and could absolutely fix the Cardinals pitching problems. While Marcell Ozuna is no longer on the team and doing very little for the Atlanta Braves, with his most notable actions coming off the field and involving legal trouble.      At the time of this trade, the Cardinals saw no problems in their offerings and were excited to get a Gold Glove left fielder with MVP potential. However, this is not what they received, and they ended up giving up much more than they initially believed. The Cardinals traded two future aces for an average player, who could not field and would lea...

Will There Be 700?

-
    St. Louis Cardinals slugger Albert Pujols is arguably one of the greatest right-handed hitters of all time. He has a resume that is packed full of accolades and will certainly be finding himself in the Hall of Fame when it is all said and done. However, there is some unfinished business that he hopes to take care of before this happens. This involves Pujols hoping to become the 4th person in Major League Baseball history to hit 700 home runs. As of September 9th, 2022, he is only 5 away from doing so, but with just 23 games left in the Cardinals season, will he be able to reach 700?        In the last couple of months, Pujols has been one of the better hitters in all of baseball. He has shown the power that he has not been able to show for multiple years and looks like he has gone back in time. However, as he is only really finding success against left-handed pitching, and the league is dominated by righties, it is hard to say how many more chances he w...

Ranting About a Redbird

-
     The title of this post has a double meaning, as I will be looking at Paul DeJong. DeJong is currently playing for the St. Louis Cardinals, and just so happens to be an Illinois State University Alumni. Which would make him two times the Redbird. Unfortunately, I am not happy that Paul DeJong represents either, as he is one of the St. Louis Cardinals' biggest disappointments, and hopefully, you will understand this after reading the information below.       In 2019, Paul DeJong was an All-Star. Although his stats weren't too impressive from the season when it came to batting average and on-base percentage, he did hit 30 home runs, which was good enough to get him this recognition. However, since this 2019 season, he has been almost unplayable. Yet, he is still somehow playing, and playing all too often.       I'm not going to give him too much grief for his performance in 2020, as that was the shortened COVID season, and nothing...
