Happ Impressive, Cardinals Still Fall to Braves Aug 05, 2021

Show notes

J.A. Happ threw five solid innings, but a lack of offense and outfield defense proved to be enough to sink the Cardinals. This start from Happ is exactly what the Cardinals can expect from an acquisition of this kind. The offense was flat, and this series loss might prove costly in the playoff hunt. Also on this show; the 2022 schedule, Jack flaherty and Yadier Molina.

Lester + Offense Fall Flat in Loss Aug 04, 2021

Show notes

It was a disappointing debut for Jon Lester in a Cardinal uniform, despite "settling down" after a rocky first. We're way too late in the season for accepting these kinds of starts, and for the time being the acquisition of Lester doesn't look very good. The offense was sluggish and only mustered up one run in the 9th against a solid Max Fried for the Atlanta Braves. Lucas breaks down the ugly loss, as well as shares some good news about Jack Flaherty and Miles Mikolas.

Cardinals Win Series Over Twins (Adam Wainwright is Good) Aug 02, 2021

Show notes

The St. Louis Cardinals took two of three over the Minnesota Twins over the weekend in convincing fashion. Yes, the Twins are in last place in the AL Central and 15.5 games out of a playoff spot, but a win's a win. Adam Wainwright impressed (again) and it's time to recognize him as the Cardinals' best starting pitcher. Yadier Molina made history as well, now owning the 4th-most hits in Cardinal history. Lucas breaks down what happened in the series and tries to take a positive look on the two trades that were made on Friday.

Reaction to the St. Louis Trade Deadline Jul 30, 2021

Show notes

The St. Louis Cardinals have acquired JA Happ from the Minnesota Twins and Jon Lester from the Washington Nationals. John Gant and Evan Sisk (prospect) go to the Twins while Lane Thomas is heading to the Nation's capital. Lucas is joined by Corey Miller of KSDK to give the instant reaction to the two acquisitions. The two veterans do little to help the pitching shortage, both coming in with ERA's over 5. Is there any upside to these two deals?

Talking Twins + Trade Deadline Jul 30, 2021

The St. Louis Cardinals welcome the Minnesota Twins to Busch this weekend for a three game series. Neither team expected to be in the position they're in, but both are on the outside looking in at at the playoffs. Two of the three Twins starters could be dealt by the deadline and the Cardinals could be in on one of them. Lucas breaks down the potential pitching matchups, gets you up to date on the trading deadline and talks one specific name the Cardinals might be interested in.

Show notes

It seems as though everyone is being active at the trading deadline except for the St. Louis Cardinals. From buyers like the Seattle Mariners to playoff members San Diego Padres, everyone is trying to improve their team. Sadly, St. Louis is yet to make a big acquisition, so Lucas takes a look at who's still on the board for the Cardinals to go after. He also updates how the trading deadline has gone, as well as shares who you say the Cards should trade for.

Cards Split Series w/Cleveland Jul 28, 2021

Show notes

The St. Louis Cardinals have split their two game series with the Cleveland Indians, winning Tuesday 4-2 and losing Wednesday 7-2. St. Louis is now off until after the trade deadline, sitting at 51-51 with little to no reason for the front office to be too aggressive. Lucas breaks down the last two games and shares two key points as to why the Cardinals are so far back in the standings on today's show.

Frustrating Weekend in Cincy, Cards Sellers or Buyers? Jul 26, 2021

Show notes

The St. Louis Cardinals lost two of the three games this weekend in Cincinnatti, salvaging the last game in an offensive outburst of 10 runs. The Cardinals were hoping to make a statement this weekend, but instead find themselves at .500 and seven games out of the closest playoff spot. It's trade deadline week, so the big question being asked about everybody is who's a buyer and who's a seller? Today's show looks at why the Cardinals are probably going to stand pat. Lucas also looks at the weekend that was in Cincy and talks more about the outfield of Tyler O'Neill, Harrison Bader and Dylan Carlson.
