It’s not a long season, but it’s certainly a part of the MLB calendar and tradition. The finalists have been announced for the major awards, and the gold glove winners have already been set in stone. Our own Masyn Winn deservedly won the Gold Glove for 2025, so I will move on from that category, […]

Assessing how far behind the Cardinals offense is from the best offenses in the playoffs and identifying a few diamond in the rough candidates for 2026. The World Series concluded on Saturday, and despite the result, it was still a spirited battle between two incredibly fun offenses to watch. What were some takeaways f...

This week, Jake goes one-on-one with the co-host of the “dealin’ the Cards” podcast, Josh Jacobs! We talk about Josh’s early impressions of Chaim Bloom, what his influence has been in investing in the infrastructure of the organization and bringing in new names like Jacob Buffa from Houston and ...

The offseason has officially begun, although one could argue it really begins on November 6, because that’s when teams can officially sign free agents. Right now there’s a five day period designed for teams to have a chance to sign their impending free agents. For example, the Kansas City Royals signed Mich...

A couple weeks ago, I discussed the four lefty bats since they were brought up by Katie Woo as a group who is likely to interest on the trade market. The quartet of Brendan Donovan, Alec Burleson, Lars Nootbaar, and Nolan Gorman are seen as expendable pieces as the Cardinals work towards their rebuild, but […]

Can’t let a Game 7 escape without a Game Thread. I apologize if this ends up being redundant. Game starts 7p CDT. Don’t forget to set clocks back tonight. Ohtani opens for Dodgers. Scherzer opens for Blue Jays. For all the folks predicting the ruination of baseball, I bet the ratings on this game will [&hel...

Lots of people have lots of ideas about how to improve this roster. Of course, the only people who really count in this are [&h...

Elsewhere in MLB… The 2025 Major League Baseball season could come to an end tonight as the Toronto Blue Jays are on the precipice of a World Series. The Jays took two out of three in Los Angeles and have a 3-2 series lead over the defending champion Los Angeles Dodgers, with first pitch for […]

The Cardinals are about to begin what should be a very productive and busy offseason. That could start as soon as Saturday, as the Blue Jays return home ahead 3-2 in the World Series with a chance to close out the Dodgers in Friday’s Game 6. If necessary, Game 7 will be Saturday night, and […]

When I was listening to the radio yesterday, something that has long fascinated me came to my attention. You see, they were not talking about the Cardinals, they were talking about the Blues. The Blues had recently called up a prospect, a former top 10 pick who recently turned 20. They called up Dalibor Dovorsky. [&hel...

Ok, admittedly I have been planning on writing this since last week’s article about solutions to the outfield conundrum/dilemma/failure. But just before writing this I found a link to an mlb trade rumors article talking about the same deal! So now it’s time to compare my limited ideas with whatever mlb trad...
