If this doesn't get him the Eckstein Award, nothing will...
David Eckstein was named World Series MVP, when the Cardinals beat the Tigers on Friday to win the World Series in five games. And here we thought Rex Grossman was a shoo-in...
I admit, I was wrong about the Cards. Then again, so was most of baseball. They've been a good team for a very long time, pretty much continuously in contention for as long as Tony LaRussa has been their manager. Raise your hand if you guessed before the series that it would end with a montage of Jeff Weaver highlights, scored to "Ain't No Other Man."
Now, the Hot Stove League begins. It's the most wonderful time of the year...
