Not that it'd have made a difference but I actually first read that as Curt Flood, which would've made this even better on a number of levels.

I did too.

Especially since he died over 18 years ago.

Unless "other one" is a monstrous, man-eating, automatic tarp, I agree.

The Cardinals methpocalypse is coming June 26. I can't wait. Bryant, Rizzo, Russell, and Soler will all go 3-for-3 with three homers and three bases on balls in every game of the series. REVENGE.

Nope. Not happening. This Cardinals team makes the '61 Yankees look like the 2015 White Sox.

3-for-36 in the series with 1 RBI and no homers. Bryant will still have zero homers after that series ends.

QuoteThe F.B.I. and Justice Department prosecutors are investigating front-office officials for the St. Louis Cardinals, one of the most successful teams in baseball over the past two decades, for hacking into the internal networks of a rival team to steal closely guarded information about player personnel.

Investigators have uncovered evidence that Cardinals officials broke into a network of the Houston Astros that housed special databases the team had built, according to law enforcement officials. Internal discussions about trades, proprietary statistics and scouting reports were compromised, the officials said.

Also, this:

QuoteInvestigators believe Cardinals officials, concerned that Mr. Luhnow had taken their idea and proprietary baseball information to the Astros, examined a master list of passwords used by Mr. Luhnow and the other officials who had joined the Astros when they worked for the Cardinals. The Cardinals officials are believed to have used those passwords to gain access to the Astros' network, law enforcement officials said.

... means that the Cardinals store their passwords in plain text. That's a huge no-no. Definitely not the best IT in baseball.
