Cards News and Notes: The Core, A Win, and Advice from Pedro

The Cardinals won the first game of the three-game series against the Indians, giving them a 3-game winning streak. VEB also had some posts yesterday.

• New writer Jason Rollison gave an update of the State College season thus far. If you’re interested in the minors, and since you’re here I suspect you are, this is worth a read.
• A.E. Schafer wrote about what could be called the core of the Cardinals now and you may disagree, but the only way to find out is to read.
• lil_scooter93 had her Hunt and Peck, which included a very compelling Players Tribune article by Carlos Martinez (likely a ghostwriter but still a good read)
• Series preview of a series that has started well so far.
• Game thread for yesterday’s game.
• Recap for yesterday’s game.

Corey Kluber against Carlos Martinez tonight.
