Dodgers on Deck: Friday, May 1 at Cardinals

After their first off day in two weeks, the Dodgers open a six-game road trip on Friday night against the Cardinals at Busch Stadium in St. Louis. This will be Emmet Sheehan’s first career start in St. Louis, and his second career start against the Cardinals. He struck out five and allowed two unearned runs […]

The St Louis Cardinals are having a really exciting and maddening April

The Cardinals have blown my mind this season so far. It’s not been pretty: if anything, it’s been a little bit ugly… but here we are, in the middle of our first series against an NL Central opponent, winning the first two games (in not the most easily digestible fashion!). Andre Pallante and Bubba Chandler […]

St. Louis Cardinals Rain Baseballs into the Allegheny-Beat Pirates 11-7

A lot of things went right for the St. Louis Cardinals Tuesday night. Kyle Leahy pitched a solid 5 innings, multiple Cardinals tried to drown baseballs in the nearby Allegheny River and the St. Louis bullpen was adequate enough for another road victory. The Cardinals lineup struck early and often with Nolan Gorman crushing a […]

Game Discussion for St. Louis Cardinals vs Pittsburgh Pirates Tuesday

The St. Louis Cardinals will have a hard time topping their come-from-behind thriller Monday night when they scored 4 ninth inning runs to beat Pittsburgh 4-2. However, maybe they can score some runs before the 9th inning Tuesday night when Kyle Leahy gets the start for St. Louis. Braxton Ashcraft will take the mound for […]

Cardinals Nearly No-Hit by Pirates-Shock Pittsburgh in 9th Winning 4-2

Spoiler alert: There weren’t going to be many highlights to share from tonight’s St. Louis Cardinals game in Pittsburgh as the Pirates bullpen nearly no-hit the birds. However, the St. Louis Cardinals broke the heart of the Bucks thanks in part to a loud homecoming from JJ Wetherholt and a rally for the ages. The […]

Game Discussion for St. Louis Cardinals vs Pittsburgh Pirates Monday

The St. Louis Cardinals begin one of their toughest stretches of the young season as they kick off a 4-game series in Pittsburgh Monday night. Dustin May (3-2 with a 5.84 ERA) is scheduled to start for the Cardinals. Mason Montgomery will make the start for the Pirates. First pitch scheduled for 5:40pm St. Louis […]

Cam Sanders off to better start in second turn with Pirates

The Pirates added pitching depth over the weekend to help their bullpen during an extended stretch without an off day. Pittsburgh recalled right-handed reliever Cam Sanders during the Milwaukee series and remains with the Pirates for the first of four against the St. Louis Cardinals. Braxton Ashcraft was placed on the bereavement list as a […]

Series Preview: Mariners (14-15) at Twins (12-16)

After sweeping the Cardinals in St. Louis, the Mariners continue their annual early-season cursèd march through the Midwest with a stopoff in Minnesota, the famous not-roof-havers. The Twins are fresh off their own sweeping, at the hands of former Mariner Ben Williamson and the Tampa Bay Rays. They’ve lost five straight and nine of their […]

St. Louis Cardinals Steadying Presence in the Rotation

Questions persisted all offseason as to what this 2026 St. Louis Cardinals starting rotation was going to look like. Matthew Liberatore has not quite found his stride early in the season. Dustin May, after 2 shaky starts to begin the year, has found a footing in the rotation over his last 3 appearances. Andre Pallante […]

Mariners News: Rob Refsnyder, Josh Naylor, and Spencer Torkelson

Good morning! The Mariners completed an exciting three-game sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals yesterday behind a pinch-hit, go-ahead home run from Rob Refsnyder. Luis Castillo will take the mound tonight at 4:40 PM to face the Minnesota Twins at Target Field. With lots of great pitching and hitting performances from this series, what was […]

Tague Davis sets new home run record as Cards sweep Clemson

Tague Davis’ historic season for the Louisville baseball team hit another milestone on Sunday as the sophomore slugger belted his 26th home run of the year, setting a new single season U of L record. Davis’ 26th bomb moved him past Randy Delph (1974) and Chris Dominguez (2009) on the single season list. If that […]

Looking at internal relief help for the Cardinals

There’s been a strategy in baseball of cycling through bullpen arms to get maximum freshness from your fringier relievers. The Cardinals utilized this to some extent last year, but they’ve mostly abandoned it this year. I’ve seen some complaints about it. We are in late April and there’s really only one instance of using a […]

Cardinals Bullpen Wastes McGreevy’s Great Start as Mariners Win 3-2

Michael McGreevy gave the St. Louis Cardinals a crucial quality start and JJ Wetherholt and Nathan Church provided the power, but the bullpen wasted all of it as the Mariners pulled out a late inning victory 3-2. Both Emerson Hancock for the Mariners and Michael McGreevy for the Cardinals gave their teams strong starts Sunday. […]

Mariners Game #30 Preview and Discussion: SEA at STL, 4/26/26

After a wild one yesterday, the Mariners have secured a series win and come into today looking for a sweep. Emerson Hancock takes the mound for Seattle and will look to improve on a slightly shakier performance last time out when he surrendered three homers in a shortened start against the Athletics. Lineups: Josh Naylor […]

Mariners get weird, beat St. Louis 11-9

I have no idea whether this was a good game or not. It was a game in which Bryan Woo gave up four home runs for just the second time in his career; it was a game in which Dominic Canzone and Connor Joe both had pinch-hitting game-tying RBI hits. It was a game in […]
