Latest blog entries from St. Louis teams across every league
Last week, I published a breakdown (here) of what could be enough “starZ” to make up a competitive roster. This week you’ll read my musing about how the Cardinal FO could apply such a model to their current roster and look to build a roster that can be competitive. There are multiple ways to get […]
December may have begun in disastrous fashion — not for the first time in our history! — but that shouldn’t detract from how good November was for the Blues. We started with a win at New Three Point Lane against Spurs on the first, beat Wolves then Burnley on either side of the international break, […]
Get excited, folks: it’s Thursday night and the St. Louis Blues are coming to town! Just three more weeks until Santa Claus himself will be coming to town, but until then, we have to settle for…oh no, not Jordan Binnington! Well, maybe not, depending on whether or not Jim Montgomery wants to start him, but […]

After the Devin Williams to the Mets announcement, there hasn’t been much activity in yesterday’s hot stove. The biggest move might have been the “The Athletic” beat writer Katie Woo jumping from covering the St. Louis Cardinals to the LA Dodgers. There’s no proof to the rumor that she deffered all but a dollar of […]
Earlier this week, it was reported by Katie Woo of the Athletic that St. Louis Cardinals’ 1B/catcher Willson Contreras has become more open to waiving his no-trade clause to facilitate a trade out of St, Louis. It comes in the wake of former teammate Sonny Gray doing the same thing and in turn being traded […]
So you want to trade Willson Contreras? I hadn’t intended on making this post, but since Contreras is apparently more open to getting traded, if it’s the right fit, might as well see what any potential return will bring back. I already did this with Sonny Gray (I was wildly wrong, so take this with […]
Just the facts Know your enemy Game notes See ya tonight!
As a child of the 1970’s, I remember the St. Louis Cardinals when they rarely threatened to win their division. Contending for a World Series during that era was nothing more than a pipe dream. Looking back now, I can pinpoint 3 different December days when Whitey Herzog made key moves that turned the St. […]
Another later-inning reliever is off the board, though it’s not one who is changing teams. Emilio Pagan is sticking with the Reds on a very healthy deal: Free-agent right-hander Emilio Pagán back to Reds, pending physical. Story with @ctrent : https://t.co/Ns0Mwc2rPA — Ken Rosenthal (@Ken_Rosenthal) December 4, 2025 Two years and $20 million for Pagan, AND he gets an opt out in-between the two years. So he’s getting the same deal as Ryan Helsley, but just a little less cas...

If you stayed up late enough to watch all the way to the end of an extended shootout that ended just a few minutes before midnight, you were treated to an outstanding hockey game . That was a Vegas team with Stanley Cup aspirations and the game was played at a playoff level. Spencer Knight and Carter Hart were both spectacular in net. Connor Bedard put on a show. It’s an absolute shame the Blackhawks didn’t walk away with two points, but that was a great game to watch. With two points l...
As the offseason began, it appeared that among the St. Louis Cardinals veterans Willson Contreras would be the most likely to remain with the team during the rebuild. A new report seems to indicate that his desire to remain with the team might have changed. Katie Woo of The Athletic dropped this curious share on […]
St. Louis Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington has had his name all over the rumor mill as a trade candidate. Now he's the focus of attention for his actions after being pulled early in the first period Monday night—barking at head coach Jim Montgomery and storming off to the locker room. Jordan Binnington has some words for Jim Montgomery after getting pulled early in the 1st pic.twitter.com/CSAXoxsdNB — Gateway Grinders (@gatewaygrinders) December 2, 2025 A goalie will usually plunk himself do...
On December 10th in Orlando, Florida. Major League Baseball and all 30 clubs with an open 40-man roster spot will have the opportunity to steal eligible young talent from another organisation in hopes of finding a marginal advantage on the roster. Most recently, the St. Louis Cardinals drafted Ryan Fernandez in the 2023 Rule 5 […]
He was the steal of the 2024 offseason (literally), after the St. Louis Blues pilfered Philip Broberg (and Dylan Holloway—another steal) from the Edmonton Oilers with an offer sheet. Broberg, on an expiring two-year, $9.16 million contract ($4.58M AAV), will be a restricted free agent after the season, but talks on an extension have not yet begun with the Blues. Jeremy Rutherford writes in The Athletic that Broberg has been the Blues’ MVP through the first quarter of the season. An...
Even as the St. Louis Cardinals stand to post their third sub-.500 season in four years, and even as attendance and fan support plummets, and even as new management explicitly undertakes a rebuilding process that could take years, Willson Contreras reportedly wants to stick it out. In other words, don’t expect Contreras to follow Sonny Gray out the door in the next Cardinals sell-off trade. He has a no-trade clause, it sounds like he still plans to wield it: . @dgoold reports that Wi...

I noticed a curious thing when I was perusing potential outfielders for the Cardinals to sign. I noticed this when I made a case for Michael Conforto, which was understandably not received that well. If you hyper focus on right-handed outfielders, there’s a bunch of former Cardinals. It’s actually kind of crazy how many of […]
