Ep. 903: 8 Ks for Pallante not enough to power a Cardinals win on Friday Apr 25, 2026

Show notes

Brenden Schaeffer breaks down the Cardinals 3-2 loss to the Mariners from Friday, April 24, 2026.

Andre Pallante struck out 8 batters but gave up three runs including the go-ahead homer to Josh Naylor.

Masyn Winn had a key RBI swing but it's all the Cardinals mustered in the game, letting an eighth-inning scoring chance fade with their best hitters at the plate.

A new sounding podcast tonight, just to make sure y'all got one at all! Let me know some feedback!

Ep. 902: Does a JJ Wetherholt contract extension with the Cardinals make sense? Apr 23, 2026

Show notes

Brenden Schaeffer discusses the concept of a JJ Wetherholt contract extension and whether it makes sense for the Cardinals -- as well as from Wetherholt's perspective.

It's an interesting angle compared to recent deals for Konnor Griffin and Kevin McGonigle.

Ep. 901: Did the getaway day lineup doom the Cardinals on Wednesday? Apr 22, 2026

Show notes

Brenden Schaeffer breaks down the controversial topic of a getaway day lineup for the Cardinals as Oli Marmol prioritized rest for a number pf key players on Wednesday. St. Louis dropped the game, 4-1, and the series as a result of the loss.

What gives with the lineup? Is it possible there was some logic behind it? We explore.

Ep. 900: Stone-cold from Riley O'Brien! Cardinals bail out Stanek to beat Marlins, 5-3 Apr 22, 2026

Show notes

Brenden Schaeffer breaks down the Cardinals 5-3 win over the Marlins from Tuesday night as Ryne Stanek continues to be an adventure in the bullpen.

But Oliver Marmol had compelling reasons for trying to squeeze one last out from Stanek the way that he did -- and it has everything to do with managing the bullpen for the long haul.

Luckily, Stanek's failure didn't cost the Cards the game as George Soriano and Riley O'Brien came through.

We talk about the pitching plus the solid night by the bats as Nathan Church begins to potentially push Victor Scott II for more playing time in CF with a thunderous homer.

Ep. 899: This concerning stat could be the Cardinals' undoing... Apr 21, 2026

Show notes

The Cardinals lost to the Marlins on Monday night and one stat from the game jumped out at Brenden when it comes to season-long success... This issue has been popping up far too often for the Cards, of late.

If it continues, could it be the reason the team stops having as much success as we've seen early in the year?

Ep. 898: SWEEEEEP! Cardinals do it again! More extra-inning heroics in fifth straight W! Apr 20, 2026

Show notes

Masyn Winn comes up with the big swing in his home town in the 10th inning in order to help put the Cardinals over the top in a sweep of the Astros on Sunday!

That's five straight wins for the Redbirds as their record in close games this season is starting to be a noticeable talking point in their favor.

Ep. 897: Four in a row! Cardinals power up over the Astros AGAIN! Apr 19, 2026

Show notes

Brenden Schaeffer breaks down the Cardinals 7-5 win over the Astros from Saturday while reminding everyone that this just isn't the year to be nitpicking wins.

Cards find a way, winning their fourth straight. Shout-out Jose Fermin!

Ep. 896: Cardinals UNLOAD on the Astros, 9-4! Gorm + Herrera bring the thunder! Apr 18, 2026

Show notes

Brenden Schaeffer breaks down the Cardinals 9-4 win over the Astros in which Gorman and Herrera brought the thunder late to help make a winner of Kyle Leahy while sparing Riley O'Brien from having to pitch for the third time in four days.

Masyn Winn also had a huge swing in this game that could be indicative of what the Cards needs him to become.

Ep. 895: Whitey Ball style in Cardinals win? Is this gritty style of play sustainable? Apr 16, 2026

Show notes

Brenden Schaeffer discusses the Cardinals gritty win over the Guardians Wednesday, 5-3.

Can the team continue playing to a winning record through the mere notion of playing the game the right way, despite what appears to be several deficits for the roster relative to the big-boppers in the league?

Ep. 894: Two bombs for Wetherholt! Church walks it off for Cardinals! Apr 15, 2026

Show notes

Brenden Schaeffer discusses the Cardinals 6-5 win over the Guardians in walk-off fashion from Tuesday night as Nathan Church had the game-winning RBI sac fly in the 10th inning.

The top of the lineup truly powered up, with JJ Wetherholt blasting two homers, and Ivan Herrera getting on the board with a dinger of his own.

We also focus on a key contribution from the bullpen that many Cardinals fans were probably adamantly against seeing play out -- but it was ultimately the perfect decision and usage for a struggling reliever to redeem himself.
