Brenden Schaeffer breaks down an oft-discussed topic of the past couple years, which is Yadier Molina potentially joining the Cardinals in a formal capacity.
While the last time we heard about this, it did not ultimately materialize as expected, could Yadi's guest coaching stints in 2025 point toward his readiness to commit to a more significant role with the club in 2026?
And how would Yadi serving on Oli Marmol's coaching staff potentially set the stage for his future foray into managing an MLB team down the road?
How did you like the introduction of the new POBO into Cardinals Nation earlier this week? Brenden discusses the Chaim Bloom press conference and what his words told us about how the Cardinals plan to embark upon the next chapter for the club.
Brenden Schaeffer breaks down the press conference from Monday for St. Louis Cardinals outgoing president of baseball operations John Mozeliak.
The stage is now set for Tuesday, as Chaim Bloom will speak for the first time as the head executive of the club's baseball operations department.
Brenden Schaeffer discusses the Cardinals being eliminated officially from playoff contention on Wednesday, while Sonny Gray seems ready to waive his no-trade clause.
Are the Cardinals due to move him this winter? Plus, will they take the extra step of committing to a rebuild by trading Brendan Donovan? We have some potentially controversial thoughts on that topic.
Brenden Schaeffer discusses his view of the worst mistake Mozeliak made while running the Cardinals - not in terms of the scale of the mistake, but because of how upsetting the misguided motivations of the organization were when he made it.
And certainly today, with the Cardinals finishing the season with real pride, it looks even worse as this unforced error motivated by finances ending up helping to take the Cardinals out of contention for a wild card.
After a tough loss for the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday, this episode of the podcast focuses solely on what's going on down on the farm!
Brenden Schaeffer discusses the St. Louis Cardinals loss from Monday night in Seattle as the Cards dropped the game 4-2 to the M's, which dropped the team to back below .500.Miles Mikolas had one of his better road starts of the year, but when the sixth inning began to go off the rails, Gordon Graceffo came in to try and keep it on the track.When it went off the rails, do we blame Graceffo? Oli Marmol? Or do we just understand that this is all a necessary part of the growth process for these Cardinals.SUBSCRIBE to this channel for St. Louis Cardinals coverage all year long!
Brant Brown's recent appearance on KMOX spelled out the details on what the St. Louis Cardinals coaches believe needs to happen for Jordan Walker to become successful. And while the interview pointed out targeted ways that Walker needs to improve, it gets lost in the shuffle a bit that the Cards hitting coach also said he thinks Walker is just a stone's throw away from being able to achieve these things.
Where do we come down on Brown putting the onus on the player to move Walker's own career forward? Interesting comments and timing with the season winding down. We break it all down on this episode.
Andre Pallante's struggles continued Tuesday, in a major way.
What do the Cardinals do with him and his rotation spot now that it seems he's still as far as he has ever been away from getting to the other side of these struggles?
