Ep. 515: Mozeliak's Update On Nootbaar And Other Cardinal Injuries -- Can Scott II Factor Into Opening Day? Mar 11, 2024

Show notes

Brenden Schaeffer discusses the injury updates from John Mozeliak on Cardinals outfielders Tommy Edman and Lars Nootbaar from Friday, March 8, 2024. He spoke with reporters in Jupiter, so we'll relay that info and react to it. Does the latest news open a window for Victor Scott II to make the team? And Sonny Gray was asked on the Foul Territory podcast if he thinks he can be back for Opening Day from his hamstring strain. Hear his answer (unfortunately in low-quality audio, as I explain below). EDITOR'S NOTE: The Sonny Gray audio is echoed. I know this, but I don't have time to go back and redo it. The turnaround time on these podcasts is short, so it's usually something I just have to roll in one take and if something is messed up, I don't have the resources to edit it and still get it out quickly. Sorry. I am learning the software of my video editor to try and avoid mistakes like this in the future. I know why it echoed and will try to remember to alter that particular setting next time. Stay tuned to see if I manage to do it!

Ep. 514: Tommy Edman's Wrist Is A Nervous Topic Mar 08, 2024

The Cardinals had to pause Tommy Edman's baseball activities recently due to lingering discomfort with his surgically repaired wrist. Now, he's ramping back up, but still reportedly having issues when swinging a bat right-handed. Is it time to be concerned about the status of Edman's progress back toward full health? And what will be the solution put forth by the Cardinals on how to handle center field duties if he's not ready by Opening Day? SUBSCRIBE to this channel for Cardinals content all year long!

Brenden Schaeffer discusses the past couple of days of Cardinals spring training games down in the Treasure Coast of Florida (seriously, that's what they call this area).

The Cardinals haven't scored many runs lately, and new addition Kyle Gibson allowed Lane Thomas and James Wood to go back-to-back against him to start Thursday's game.

Ep. 510: Cardinals reportedly sign Brandon Crawford! What does this deal say about the plan for Tommy Edman?? Feb 27, 2024

Show notes

Brenden Schaeffer discusses the reported Brandon Crawford signing with the St. Louis Cardinals as the Redbirds seem to have found their backup shortstop behind Masyn Winn.

Does Crawford's signing signal that Tommy Edman's health is not yet where the Cardinals were hoping it would be?

Or is there actually another angle on Edman that makes this a sensible signing even after Edman returns to full strength? We explain what we mean by that while breaking down both sides of the merits behind bringing in Crawford now.
