The Cardinals didn't face Cueto again in 2010 after the LaRue deal. Cueto didn't pitch against us until late May of the next year.....and we only faced that clown twice.

Its Ironic everyone bitches and pisses and moans about the "Cardinal Way"........yes winning is a mother forker. I'm happy to see the Royals finally taking up the Cardinal Way.

The Cardinal Way.....lets see, draft good players, develop them to play YOUR style and get them to "buy into" the system. Keep, them and don't ship them off to another club after you developed them. Use that talent and keep your payroll low. Win games year in and out, with players no one knows, and go deep into the playoffs. Hustle in the field and give a great effort.....you know the very thing they teach you from Little League Baseball, but seems to get lost above the AA Level. I guess having high expectations of your players is frowned upon in other cities.

No one hates the Indians, or Marlins, or Mariners.....they suck People hate winners, and they hate the things they aren't. The Yankees are arrogant, rude, mouthy, and throw chit at the other teams. They boo their own players on a regular basis. It happens in all the major market teams. They throw chit at opposing teams. Philly, Dodgers, Chicago, and the list goes on. Spend tons of money, hope you spent it on the right players, and if you don't win.....go spend some more money. Ask the Dodgers is the money they spent has been a great investment. HUGE payrolls and they get bounced out of the LDS 4 of their last 7 trips to the playoffs, and the other three trips they got killed in the NLCS.

The Cardinal Way....putting a winning product on the field year in and out, and doing it through the farm system....which was started by Branch Rickey, in the Cardinal organization in the 20's....so really the Farm System everyone uses today IS THE CARDINAL WAY.
