One one who sucks the penis from the Angels even stole the damned book.
This will be remembered as a golden era, but we need to strike in the next few years, because you can't keep these kinds of teams together forever.

True dat. The Cardinal way book is given to every minor league coach and player. Can't be that hard for another team to get their hands on a copy.
We ain't the Yankees, Angel, Dodgers etc. We can't cover up mistakes with out $2 Billion TV contracts.
We have at least 4 years. Yadi will be done as a catcher. Then we have Rosenthal and Miller hitting FA. Waino will be coming off the books so we can pay one. But next year we got Martinez and Wacha hitting FA.
Starting with the WS Championship, we have a 7 year window. Thats a pretty damn big window for a team with our payroll.
We got 4 years of planning to replace them.
