    Brad Penny on Twitter

    commons.wikimedia.org​I freely admit I'm at least moderately anti-Twitter. I know, I know, as a blogger and therefore member -- at least in name -- of the New Media, I should love it.

    The Philadelphia Story: A Progress Report One Month In

    ​It was supposed to be the Cardinals' measuring stick for the young season, this trip to Philadelphia.

    The Penny Deal

    ​So the first real salvo of the Cardinals' offseason has been fired, as they signed Brad Penny to a one-year, $7.5 million deal which could be worth up to $9 million if he pitches 204 innings.
