Another preseason note on the '09 Cardinals

Our former phenom pitcher will be the starting center fielder.

Last year's left fielder, who hasn't played any other position since he was a freshman in college, will be the starting second baseman.

And a guy who was a minor league catcher until a few years ago looks to be our closer.

And I just today discovered that our likely backup thirdbaseman has the nickname "Joey Slapdick."

All sorts of wonderful things can, and probably will, go wrong with this season. But it will be an entertaining kind of catastrophe. In conclusion, baseball: (expletive) yeah.

Does 4 runs in the 9th inning on opening day fall into the "all sorts of wonderful things" category? I know all the Cubs and Pirates fan think it does.
