Mar 7, 1961

We defeat the Mets 11-6 in our first ST game.

St. Louis said "ALMOST!" on both of those trades.

For Musial, they gave me a list of 10 players they would complete the deal if I threw one in. Who the heck is 21yo CF John Mustion 1/7? I guess I'll let the Cardinals find out. I'll get Musial muhahaha.

For CF Pinkston, they gave me a list of 6 to choose from. I chose Fred Norman. This is actually a good deal for St. Louis because Pinkston is 43yo and is retiring after this year (ok, I checked. He's 43, sue me).

Whoa... Pinkston was popular in Houston, too!

Pinkston email: "The overall fan interest increases significantly!"

Musial email: "The overall fan interest increase is amazing!"

Fan Interest is at 76. BUY SEASON TICKETS NOW! CHEAPEST TICKETS IN BASEBALL!

That was fun because both of these guys are old so neither will help the long-term success of the club. This is purely a business decision to sell tickets while helping the team on the field.
