Scott Neville runs "St. Louis Cardinals On SI." The Merrimack College graduate is the publisher for a bevy of sites in the MLB and NFL landscapes after early success with "Boston Red Sox On SI" led to expansion. Before he was given the opportunity to join On SI, he was developing his skillset at one of the top regional sports networks in the United States, NESN, where he covered all sports.

The St. Louis Cardinals appear to be heading toward another fire sale at the trade deadline and will place their All-Star closer on the shopping block.
The St. Louis Cardinals have focused all offseason on upgrading the pitching staff and will have another opportunity to do so after an accomplished hurler elected free agency.
The St. Louis Cardinals would be wise to add a caliber of player who is not typically available at this time of year, especially as they seek added depth.
The St. Louis Cardinals likely will be without one of their starting outfielders for Opening Day after the fan-favorite lead-off man suffered a notable injury.
