A St. Louis Cardinals Fan Community
The St. Louis Cardinals weekend series versus the Cincinnati Reds will have to wait until Saturday as the team just announced that Friday night’s game has been postponed due to weather. Saturday will now see a double-header (weather permitting, of course) with the first game being at 12:10pm central time and the night game scheduled […]
On this day, 24 years ago, Jordan Walker was born. Happy Birthday! Young by baseball standards, it feels like we’ve been waiting on him FOREVER! Authors Note: Some of you will fret about the VEB curse, rightfully so. I did a breakdown on Riley O’Brien the day before he blew a save in West Sacramento […]
Game Summary The Pirates re-asserted themselves today to take the game and series from St. Louis, somewhat returning the favor from the Cardinals recent visit to Pittsburgh. The Pirates took no quarter, outscoring the Cardinals 13-2 in the final two games of the set. Dustin May and Braxton Ashcroft lead out in an early pitcher’s […]
After Wednesday night’s dumpster fire, the St. Louis Cardinals wrap up their homestand with a day game against the Pittsburgh Pirates as they try to win the series Thursday afternoon. Dustin May gets the start for the Cardinals while the Pirates will send Braxton Ashcraft to the mound. First pitch at Busch Stadium is set […]
On Monday, I looked at how the pitchers in the upper minors were doing and honestly from a statistical standpoint, it wasn’t great. Mind you, it’s early in the season, and we know pitchers work on things at the expense of the best way they currently know how to get hitters out, and the run […]
Michael McGreevy’s command was not sharp Wednesday night against Pittsburgh, but he toughed his way through 5 innings before turning the game over to the bullpen which is where the game eventually fell apart. That combined with the St. Louis Cardinals offense finding it difficult to get runs across the plate made for an uphill […]
It’s game 2 of the St. Louis Cardinals barrage of games against NL Central rivals Wednesday as Michael McGreevy will try to dominate the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Bucs will counter with Carmen Mlodzinski on the mound for Pittsburgh. First pitch scheduled for 6:45pm at Busch Stadium and game viewable on Cardinals.tv.
It’s time for the St. Louis Cardinals to call up Jimmy Crooks. Ok, so I don’t quite feel it to an ultimatum level like the first sentence reads. Crooks isn’t the Strait of Hormuz, he’s a flawed catcher for a franchise in the middle of a stated “long-term” year. However, I do think there’s a […]
We have seen so many heroic, ridiculously entertaining *but also mortifying Wins this season that it feels like one of those October teams that find ways to win… but in the regular season. Their record in extra innings is 6-1 and they are good in 1 run games. The offense is good at late-inning dramatics, […]
Matthew Liberatore had another strong start, but another not strong ending as he pitched 4 solid innings, but he would not finish the 5th inning as the game got away from him. Fortunately, the Cardinals offense lead by JJ Wetherholt, Nolan Gorman, Alec Burleson and eventually Ivan Herrera picked him up beating the Pittsburgh Pirates […]
The St. Louis Cardinals enjoyed a badly-needed day off Monday, but return to Busch Stadium Tuesday night for a NL Central battle with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Matthew Liberatore gets the start for the Cardinals while the Pirates will depend on Mitch Keller. First pitch scheduled for 6:45pm central time. Here’s the lineup for the Cardinals […]
The Cardinals are off to a 9-5 start in the month of May, continuing their established early-season surprise. It certainly doesn’t appear as though this team is going to let this season go by without a fight, and they’ve been feeding off of the “Tarps Off” trailblazers of the Stephen F Austin Baseball club, who […]
I am a lifelong St. Louis Cardinals fan (now in my sixth decade, thank you very much), but I’m also a baseball fan. Thanks to the massive overhaul that President of Baseball Operations Chaim Bloom successfully kicked off during the offseason, there are many former St. Louis Cardinals on new teams and several of them […]
We welcome back 101 ESPN radio personality and Host of “BK & Ferrario,” Brandon Kiley! BK also hosts the Cardinals podcast “The Redbird Report” with fellow 101 ESPN personality Tanner Hendrickson. This week, Gabe and I dive into all sorts of Cardinals-related topics: the “Tarps off” movement, early-season performances, Roster moves/decisions, and, of course, some […]
Last week, I shared how the hitting prospects in the system were doing. Wasn’t really planning for it to be a weeklong thing, it’s just that the Cardinals seem to have that many prospects worth monitoring. And I definitely didn’t cover everyone too. This week, I’ll cover the pitching prospects. Let’s get started. Memphis Quinn […]
Who’s rising? Who’s falling so far in the minor leagues for the Cardinals? We had on Kyle Reis to speak about that and worked in conversations about who the next man up might be for various spots on the big league roster. As usual when you involved Kyle, it was an entertaining and thought provoking […]
Quiet Sundays can be a good thing, but not when it describes what happened to the St. Louis Cardinals bats as the Royals avoided a sweep winning 2-0. Andre Pallante was not the Cardinals problem Sunday as he gave them 6 2/3 innings allowing 8 hits, 1 earned run striking out 7 with no walks. […]
The Cardinals will try to sweep the Royals on Sunday as Andre Pallante will get the start for St. Louis. Kansas City will send Stephen Kolek to the mound. First pitch scheduled for 1:15pm central time in Busch Stadium. Shirts in the “Tarps Off Terrace” will once again be optional.
Based on almost all preseason projections, the St. Louis Cardinals have outperformed expectations and have shifted the fan view from rebuilding to contending in just a couple short months. Now, as Chaim Bloom has to answer the question “buy or sell”, fans also wonder what this hot start means for this season and beyond. The […]
If the St. Louis Cardinals season becomes something truly special later this year, you can look back to this weekend and recognize that this was that moment when the team and their fans kickstarted it all. The “Tarps Off Terrace” returned to Busch Stadium Saturday and the team responded with another victory over the overwhelmed […]
The I-70 series continues Saturday as it’s game 2 of the St. Louis Cardinals playing host for the Kansas City Royals. Kyle Leahy (4-3, 4.31 PCL, 32 SO) will start the Saturday afternoon affair for the Cardinals while Noah Cameron (2-2, 5.55 PCL, 32 SO) will begin the game for the Royals. First pitch is scheduled for 1:15pm at […]
The 2026 MLB Draft, where the Cardinals hold the 13th overall pick, will take place July 12-14, making it now less than two months away. With the college and high school regular seasons winding to a close, I thought now would be a good time to check in on who the Cardinals may be eyeing […]
The St. Louis Cardinals began rivalry weekend welcoming the Kansas City Royals to town and Jordan Walker was on the welcoming committee hitting his 13th home run leading St. Louis to a game 1 win in the I-70 series, but it would take more than 9 innings to do it. The first three innings of […]
The St. Louis Cardinals return home after a successful west coast road trip to kick off the I-70 series versus the Kansas City Royals. Dustin May gets the start for St. Louis while former Cardinal Michael Wacha will take the mound for Kansas City. First pitch is scheduled for 7:15p in Busch Stadium and the […]
Nolan Gorman has been a long term project in the Cardinals franchise with some obvious upside. The obvious upside, of course, is the fact that when he makes good contact you could build a statue of his pose and the homerun. If you put a Gorman bomb up against a sunset, you might actually watch […]
