I periodically get depressed because the Cardinals ditched the best 2nd baseman in the game

Rather than pay him the team option.

Let him walk because DeWitt (rhymes with fuckwit) can't figure out how to prioritize his self imposed budget.

Just a reminder that we are paying a useless Matt Carpenter more than what Kolten Wong's option was...

Anyway. Here is Kolten being Kolten, for our division rival

At least you've got a team working with a 'budget!"

Come on back to Pittsburgh and see what REAL frustration is all about...

I think that the city proved that there is still love for baseball in the 'Burgh a few years back when the Bucs made the playoffs 3 years straight...

Then they just folded tents and decided to suck again

Such bullshit. Pittsburgh deserves a real franchise

They didn't fold 'tents' - they folded the check book.

Oh, yes, we WANT a winner - we will SUPPORT a winner........
