Astros–Cardinals rivalry

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Alleged rivalry that never really existed, hence the lack of sources. One of the two sources in the article claims this is a rivalry that is over before it even began. – Muboshgu (talk) 03:48, 4 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Besides the sources I included, I found a one-sentence mention in, which seems to describe the matchup as a past rivalry. However, the sum of the limited coverage suggests that these two teams are just former division mates who happened to be competitive in the same general window.  Nothing special here.  Notability (sports) makes it clear that rivalries need to pass GNG to get articles.  Cards/Cubs and Cards/Royals pass GNG.  This one does not. Hog Farm (talk) 05:37, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per Hog Farm....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 12:51, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
