Wanna work for the Cardinals? The only catch is that if you get the job, you must help us revive the Q&A interview series (because those were awesome):

IE: They own you. And "Fellow" - bet that means minimum wage or less right?

Yeah, I'm assuming that a "fellow" receives some kind of stipend, maybe a few benefits, and will gain training/expertise in the field. There's no promise that the position leads to anything else in the organization.

As my mother would say, some people will use you until you're all used up.

My mother would also call the pay "a dab of nothing."

Wise woman.

The Cardinals, of course, are using a strategy as old as time...

I was hoping the add was to hire some starting pitching especially lefties.

Never happen. They have to actually pay relievers!

If only they get their salary cap, the Dewitts (net worth, $4,000,000,000.00) can finally afford to trickle that savings down to the lowly quants.

Y'all hate.
