Some moron gave Jim Johnson a 3rd place vote and also a 10th place vote for Ibanez.

Kurkjian? Ah come on stud!

Sometimes I wonder if those guys even take their job seriously. I really knew Cabrera would win (even if undeserved), but I thought it would at least be a closer contest because it should of been.

That should be an automatic loss of vote.

Jeff Passan (of course a guy with a .com after his name) wins the award for best ballot.

Cardinals 2013 alternate home jersey is pretty damn pretty

true dat, mmm all that piping


only complaint is the white StL on the hat w/the cream of the jersey, but whatever. Can't wait to see Jon Jay rock it with the high socks.

Lol yeah, descalso too. So using the red hat on the away jerseys looks clean...wish they'd do it irl.
