Brenden Schaeffer breaks down a tough loss for the Cardinals from Friday as Adam Wainwright went the distance but did not get any help whatsoever from his offense. Oliver Marmol asks who is underperforming for his team. We come up with some answers to that quandary.
It's been 84 years.... Or at least it felt like it since the last Redbird winner. Brenden Schaeffer discusses the first Cardinals win in a while, and it comes thanks to some savvy efforts by Dylan Carlson and Packy Naughton. How concerned, though, should we be about the offensive struggles for this team? And is the rotation still a scary thought heading into a new homestand? This show has a little bit of everything, as we even get into a couple trade targets--including one who would make a dynamite lead-off hitter.
Brenden Schaeffer returns from the holiday break to discuss the woes for the Cardinals rotation and whether those issues are more concerning for the team moving forward than the issues with the quiet offense of late.
Brenden Schaeffer breaks down a heartbreaker of a loss as the Cardinals fall to Sandy Alcantara and the Marlins on Wednesday. A rare mishap for Ryan Helsley caused the pain, but there's still plenty to love about what Andre Pallante is showing as a starter in his rookie season.
Brenden Schaeffer breaks down the phenomenon of folks hating on Dakota Hudson. How do we evaluate his season and career to this point with the Cardinals? He did enough Tuesday as the Cardinals came from behind to beat the Marlins. And boy, how about that bullpen? Is there a rising relief star finding his moment for St. Louis? Brenden thinks so.
Brenden Schaeffer breaks down an eventful day at Busch as the Cardinals drubbed the Marlins with big outings by Goldy and Yepez--they both went yard off a french fry facade. Waino was Waino, and the guy who relieved him in the eighth was a lifelong Cardinals fan making his MLB debut. Also, Mozeliak with a media misstep when discussing the Jack Flaherty injury? Lots to get to on today's episode.
Brenden Schaeffer breaks down the Cardinals' demoralizing loss Sunday, but more importantly, the status of Jack Flaherty after he threw only two innings in the game.
Brenden Schaeffer breaks down the Cardinals' unfortunate loss to the Cubs from Friday as the Curse of Kyle Hendricks reared its ugly head again at Busch. We break down the ridiculous numbers Hendricks has against STL in his career, as well as sharing our other takeaways from the night, including Pallante's outing and an injury to Drew VerHagen.
Brenden Schaeffer breaks down the series finale in Milwaukee as the Cardinals fell to the Brewers behind a clunker from Dakota Hudson. Though elsewhere in the bullpen things were tidy, Drew VerHagen struggled again. Is there a decision to be made on him, or is his contract situation going to prevent that from happening? Plenty of good conversation on today's episode.
Brenden Schaeffer breaks down the FIRST EVER Major League win for Johan Oviedo as he is fitting into his new bullpen role like a glove. Goldy and Arenado also helped out Wednesday as the Cards beat the Brewers to overtake sole possession of the NL Central. All that and more inside this episode.
