This is how bad things have gotten for the Arizona Cardinals. At 3-11, with three games remaining, they are at home against another miserable team, the Atlanta Falcons, and are home underdogs.

On Saturday, the Cardinals signed right-handed starting pitcher Dustin May to a one-year contract with a mutual option. As far as I know, the details of the contract are unknown aside from that. It’s irrelevant anyway in my opinion. If we knew the Cardinals had $20 million to spend, whatever he gets would be relevant. […]

Manager Al Lopez and pitching coach Ray Berres had their eyes on Pizarro for a few years, but Milwaukee refused to deal him to the Sox. Veeck craftily got his friend Bill DeWitt of Cincinnati to […]
