I think what you are failing to realize.............yes, the cardinals are at .500. We stunk it up early, but are playing as good as any team right now. We have a couple problems to work out, but the team is starting to hit and the starting pitching is there. We are also only ONE game
Out of 1st place, with a rainout game to play. I think the Cardinals are in the mix and it's early. Much like a Diesel engine, it's just taking them a little longer to get going.

The Royals on the other hand, have the worst record in baseball. The team is full of free agents and management sold out the team to win a title. I guess that's the difference between old money and new money. I thought New Money was around to stay?? Opening night was a big hit with the fans, then all 21-22,000 on average showed up. Let's see what happens come July with a dismal record. I bet it's closer to 13k a night. The bandwagon done flipped over.
