Perhaps it is a little soon to be looking at the 2015 schedule for the Cardinals when we don't even know the final rosters yet but I couldn't help myself. The following are some of the games that I would consider important in 2015.
April 5th- OPENING NIGHT BABY - @ Cubs - This will not only be the first game that we get to see Jason Heyward in RF during the regular season but the Cardinals also get a chance, at least for one night, to crush the hopes and dreams of the Cubbies and their fans. Game time: 7:05 pm.
April 13th - Cardinals Home Opener - vs Brewers - I know I am biased when I say this but there is nothing like Opening Day at Busch Stadium. From the Clydesdales, to former Cardinals' legends, to the smell of the grass and the hope of the new season, there is something special in the air when the Cardinals play their first home game of the season! Game time: 3:15 pm.
May 31st - Oscar Taveras Debut Anniversary - vs Dodgers - One year ago, Oscar Taveras came onto the scene in style with a 2nd at bat homerun in his MLB debut. With the recent news that Oscar was drunk when he crashed, will we see any sort of remembrance ceremony for Oscar's passing? Game time: 1:15 pm.
May 12 - 14th - Home Series vs Royals - Whenever the Cardinals and Royals get together for a series, the entire state of Missouri tunes in! Game times: (1) 7:15 pm, (2) TBD, (3) 1:15 pm
July 14th - MLB All Star Game - Every year Major League Baseball hosts a mid-season All Star Game and most years the Cardinals are well represented. Who will the Cards be sending this summer? Only time will tell. Game time: TBD.
August 21st - 30th - @ Padres, @D-Backs, @ Giants. 10 road games, 10 days, 3 different cities. This stretch of games is the longest road trip without a day off during the 2015 season. Due to the timing and the amount of games played in a row, this is probably the most important road trip of the year. Plus the Cardinals get a chance at some sweet revenge for the defeat in the 2014 NLCS to the Giants.
September 1st - 30th - Everyone knows that playoffs berths are made in September and during the last few years, no one has played as well during the month of September as the Cardinals have. Most years the MLB tries to schedule lots of division games during September and 2015 is no different. The Cardinals play the Pirates (6 games), Cubs (6 games), Reds (7 games), Brewers (7 games). If the Cardinals are going to win another National League Central Division Crown, they are going to have to play well against the rest of the division to do it!
