BERNIE BITS: THE SUPER-SIZED EDITION! Mizzou coach Eli Drinkwitz can recruit, he can talk, he can sell, he’s properly ambitious, and he’s highly capable of spinning the media. As Mizzou winds down its second season under new leadership, I have only one question: can...
Greetings. Today I complete my year-end review of Cardinal players. In Part One, I covered the position players. In Part Two, I assessed the starting pitchers. Now we’re here at Part Three, and it’s time to inspect the relevant relievers. I appreciate...
