His plate discipline has completely changed, and Joe Roderick and Mike Claiborne explain why this version of Walker should have the rest of the National League paying attention. On this episode of Mondays With Mike, Joe and Mike dive deep into what's different about Jordan Walker in 2026. It's not just the power, it's what he's NOT swinging at. Walker's walk rate is up, he's laying off pitches he used to chase, and pitchers are noticing. When a guy with that kind of raw power starts showing discipline, the at-bats become a nightmare for opposing pitching staffs. The guys talk about how Walker has matured at 23 years old and what that growth looks like on a nightly basis.They also break down how a lineup injury opened the door for Walker to move up to the cleanup spot, and whether Oli Marmol should keep him there.

]]> 1474 St. Louis Cardinals to sign Ryne Stanek, per reports - REACTION & ANALYSIS | Cards Central 365 The Cardinals are reportedly closing in on a deal with veteran reliever Ryane Stanek, and Card Central 365 breaks down what it could mean for a franchise clearly leaning into a low-risk, high-reward approach to roster building Multiple reports indicate St. Louis is targeting Stanek as a potential bounce-back bullpen arm who could provide strikeout upside, veteran leadership, and possibly become a valuable trade chip at the deadline if the Cardinals are not in contention. Stanek, a St. Louis native and former first-round pick, had his best seasons with Houston in 2021–22 but struggled in 2024 between Seattle and New York. Despite the recent downturn, his elite fastball velocity, strikeout potential, and experience in multiple bullpen roles make him an intriguing project for the Cardinals’ pitching development group. The show discusses how his presence could stabilize a younger bullpen, take pressure off manager Oliver Marmol, and give the Cardinals flexibility—either as a contributor in a competitive season or as a deadline flip for future assets. The panel also dives into Stanek’s pitch mix, fastball predictability issues, and how St. Louis may attempt to “rebuild” his effectiveness in a pitching-lab environment. With the Cardinals continuing to add depth and prioritize strikeout arms, Stanek becomes a classic “prove-it” signing that fits the club’s transitional strategy heading into 2026.

The duo points out that Wilson Contreras led the team in home runs last season with just 20 — an alarmingly low number that highlights how far the Cardinals have fallen from their recent playoff years, when 30-plus homer seasons from Paul Goldschmidt, Nolan Arenado, and others were the norm They break down how St. Louis has steadily drifted away from being a dangerous power lineup, noting that the last time the Cardinals made the playoffs (2022), they also had multiple hitters topping 30 homers. Since then, the team has relied on scattered, modest power totals rather than a true game-changing slugger. Joe and Brendan discuss whether Nolan Gorman, Iván Herrera, or even Alec Burleson could realistically become that 30-home-run threat, while expressing skepticism about projection systems that underestimate Herrera’s power potential despite his loud contact and limited playing time so far The conversation also explores whether the Cardinals should seek an external solution — a “Jed Gyorko-type” trade or bargain free agent who could unexpectedly become a home run machine — or fully commit to evaluating their young core in 2026, even if it means living with growing pains. Ultimately, the show frames the Cardinals’ power drought as more than a stat quirk — it’s a defining weakness that will continue to limit the team’s ceiling until St. Louis finds (or develops) a legitimate middle-of-the-order thumper.

Schaefer explains why, despite personally wishing for a long-term extension for Donovan, he believes the Cardinals are more likely to trade him while his value is at its peak following an All-Star season, especially given the club’s ongoing payroll reset and prospect-focused approach. The discussion also touches on recent salary-shedding moves, the organization’s long-term rebuild timeline, and why the front office appears to be prioritizing cost control and flexibility over immediate contention.

Cardinals Non-Tender Breakdown | Cards Central 365 On this episode of Cards Central 365, Joe Roderick and Brenden Schaeffer react to the St. Louis Cardinals' recent roster moves following the non-tender deadline. The team has reduced their 40-man roster to 37 players by declining 2026 contracts for left-handed pitcher John King, catcher Yohel Pozo, and pitchers John King Sem Robberse.

Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports Lars Nootbaar had both heels operated on to shave down Haglund’s deformities, a procedure that can affect the Achilles and often requires a lengthy ramp-up. We compare similar athlete cases, including John Wall’s 2019 heel surgery for Haglund’s deformity followed by an Achilles tear months later, and Yoenis Céspedes’ 2018 bilateral heel surgeries and his later 2019 ranch accident that fractured his ankle. We also hit Iván Herrera’s elbow cleanup and Masyn Winn’s right meniscus injury and likely arthroscopic repair, then debate how all of this changes St. Louis’ trade calculus with Brendan Donovan and Nolan Gorman.

]]> 2337 The Caray Show! Chip, Stefan, Chris Preview Cards-Athletics | Cards Central 365 Stefan welcomes listeners to a “special edition” of Cards Central 365, joined by his father, longtime Cardinals broadcaster Chip Caray, and his twin brother Chris Caray, who works with NBC Sports and covers the Athletics. The show centered on the Cardinals’ lopsided Labor Day loss to Oakland (11–3), while also highlighting both teams’ futures and family dynamics. A’s offensive surge: Oakland exploded late, scoring 8 runs between the 6th and 8th innings. They’ve built a reputation as a late-scoring, young offensive team with nearly half their runs coming via home runs. Cardinals struggles: Sonny Gray was hit hard, particularly by back-to-back home runs that shifted momentum. The Cardinals’ bullpen of younger arms couldn’t contain the A’s lineup. Chip’s perspective: He noted the A’s long tradition of roster turnover, but praised their “impressive young offensive bunch” as legitimate long-term threats. The Carays mixed in plenty of humor: Jokes about Chris’ pale complexion and “Twilight vampire casting.” Playful banter over who inherited what traits from their dad. A running gag about hugs, handshakes, and Chip “peacocking” in his new St. Louis role compared to Atlanta. Chip grew reflective, expressing pride in his sons’ careers in broadcasting and appreciation for being able to share the booth and the family’s “business.” Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 2330 no Breaking down the St. Louis Cardinals Roster Roster Breakdown for Opening Day The Cardinals have finalized their 26-man roster for the season. The biggest surprise was Michael Siani making the team, especially since Victor Scott also made it as the starting center fielder. Jose Fermin was initially told he made the roster but was ultimately left off, which raised questions about possible last-minute changes in decisions. Starting Rotation & Pitching Decisions Matthew Liberatore being named to the rotation was a significant surprise, especially with Steven Matz moving to the bullpen. The Cardinals are experimenting with a six-man rotation starting April 16, possibly to manage workloads and accommodate Sonny Gray, whose velocity has been down. Michael McGreevy had a strong spring but will start in Memphis, likely due to roster constraints. Miles Mikolas’ performance in the first few weeks may determine his long-term role, as the team has young pitchers waiting for opportunities. Bullpen moves were expected, with Roycroft and Leahy making the team, while Nick Anderson went unclaimed and will start in Memphis. Bench Construction & Position Players The final bench spot came down to Michael Siani vs. Jose Fermin, and the team opted for Siani’s defensive versatility in the outfield. Masyn Winn is expected to play 162 games at shortstop, making a true backup middle infielder unnecessary. Luken Baker earned a roster spot as a right-handed bench bat. The team might experiment with a defensive-heavy late-game outfield of Nootbaar (LF), Siani (CF), and Scott (RF) to support pitching. Looking Ahead The Cardinals open the season against the Twins, with Sonny Gray set to pitch. Lineup construction discussions will continue, including the leadoff role, with candidates like Masyn Winn, Victor Scott, Lars Nootbaar, and Brendan Donovan.

]]> 3863 Gray and McGreevy start split squad games for St. Louis Cardinals The episode focused on the St. Louis Cardinals' split-squad games, highlighting the contrasting performances of Sonny Gray and Michael McGreevy. Gray, named the team's Opening Day starter, continued to struggle, posting an alarming ERA of 12.56 after another rough outing against the Astros. Meanwhile, McGreevy delivered an outstanding performance, pitching five innings of one-hit ball. The hosts speculated about McGreevy’s role, debating whether he would make the Opening Day roster or begin the season in Memphis. They also discussed position player performances, including Masyn Winn’s struggles at the plate and Victor Scott’s impressive spring, which included his fourth home run. There was speculation about whether Scott could hit leadoff instead of Winn to start the season. The conversation shifted to the Cardinals’ projected Opening Day lineup and rotation, based on MLB and Sports Hub STL projections. The hosts debated various lineup options, the best leadoff choice, and whether Contreras should bat second. They also touched on the Cardinals' bullpen situation, questioning Phil Maton's availability for the start of the season. Later in the episode, they reviewed all 30 MLB Opening Day pitching matchups, highlighting exciting duels such as Braves-Padres, Guardians-Royals (Cole Ragans vs. Shane Bieber), and Pirates-Marlins (Paul Skenes vs. Sandy Alcántara).

The lineup is complicated by balancing at-bats for Nolan Gorman, Lars Nootbaar, Brendan Donovan, and Alec Burleson.

]]> 1427 St. Louis Cardinals can't leave Victor Scott II off the Opening Day roster... right? Podcast Recap: Cards Hub 365 with Joe Roderick & Brenden Schaeffer In the latest episode of Cards Hub 365, hosts Joe Roderick and Brenden Schaeffer discuss the St. Louis Cardinals’ spring training developments as Opening Day approaches. The main topic of conversation centers around outfielder Victor Scott II, who has played his way into the roster conversation with an impressive spring performance. Key Takeaways: Victor Scott’s Case for the Roster Scott has showcased unexpected power, hitting three home runs in fewer than 50 plate appearances. Despite struggling offensively in 2024, his speed and defensive potential make him an intriguing option. The Cardinals face a numbers game—finding a way to fit him into a crowded lineup of 10 deserving everyday players for 9 spots. The possibility of Scott serving as a high-impact bench player, using his speed as a late-game weapon, was also discussed. Cardinals’ Lineup and Depth Considerations The lineup is taking shape, with several players heating up at the right time, including Lars Nootbaar and Wilson Contreras. The hosts analyze whether Burleson and Scott can be kept out of the lineup daily while still getting the necessary playing time for Nolan Gorman and others. Defensive flexibility could be a key factor in how the team distributes playing time across positions. Pitching Staff Outlook Steven Matz impressed with a six-inning, one-run performance, fueling optimism about his role in the rotation. The hosts predict ERAs for key starters, including Sonny Gray (~3.7), Eric Fedde (~3.4), and Matz (~3.8). Concerns remain about Miles Mikolas (potentially around 4.8 ERA) and whether Michael McGreevy can step up if given an opportunity. The ability of Cardinals’ starters to consistently pitch deeper into games could significantly impact the bullpen and overall team success. Other Key Storylines The possibility of Mason Wynn’s durability being a concern, as there are limited backup shortstop options. Roster decisions involving José Barrero and Pedro Pagés will be closely watched as cuts are finalized. Sonny Gray and McGreevy will be the starters in Friday’s split-squad games, a crucial test before Opening Day. Final Thoughts The Cardinals' win total could land anywhere between 80-90, depending on health and whether pitching holds up. The team’s depth and flexibility make them better prepared for injuries compared to previous years. College basketball picks were also a side discussion, with Brenden revealing a bold High Point over Purdue upset prediction in March Madness. With Opening Day just around the corner, the Cardinals’ final roster decisions will be crucial. Will Victor Scott II make the team? And if he does, how will the Cardinals balance playing time?

In the latest episode of Cards Hub 365, hosts Joe Roderick and Brenden Schaeffer discuss the St. Louis Cardinals’ spring training developments as Opening Day approaches. The main topic of conversation centers around outfielder Victor Scott II, who has played his way into the roster conversation with an impressive spring performance.

Key Takeaways:


  • Victor Scott’s Case for the Roster


  • Scott has showcased unexpected power, hitting three home runs in fewer than 50 plate appearances.


  • Despite struggling offensively in 2024, his speed and defensive potential make him an intriguing option.


  • The Cardinals face a numbers game—finding a way to fit him into a crowded lineup of 10 deserving everyday players for 9 spots.


  • The possibility of Scott serving as a high-impact bench player, using his speed as a late-game weapon, was also discussed.



  • Cardinals’ Lineup and Depth Considerations



  • The lineup is taking shape, with several players heating up at the right time, including Lars Nootbaar and Wilson Contreras.


  • The hosts analyze whether Burleson and Scott can be kept out of the lineup daily while still getting the necessary playing time for Nolan Gorman and others.

  • Defensive flexibility could be a key factor in how the team distributes playing time across positions.





  • Pitching Staff Outlook



  • Steven Matz impressed with a six-inning, one-run performance, fueling optimism about his role in the rotation.


  • The hosts predict ERAs for key starters, including Sonny Gray (~3.7), Eric Fedde (~3.4), and Matz (~3.8).


  • Concerns remain about Miles Mikolas (potentially around 4.8 ERA) and whether Michael McGreevy can step up if given an opportunity.


  • The ability of Cardinals’ starters to consistently pitch deeper into games could significantly impact the bullpen and overall team success.


  • Other Key Storylines



  • The possibility of Mason Wynn’s durability being a concern, as there are limited backup shortstop options.

  • Roster decisions involving José Barrero and Pedro Pagés will be closely watched as cuts are finalized.

  • Sonny Gray and McGreevy will be the starters in Friday’s split-squad games, a crucial test before Opening Day.


  • Final Thoughts


  • The Cardinals' win total could land anywhere between 80-90, depending on health and whether pitching holds up.

]]> 2557 Miles Mikolas goes 6 for St Louis Cardinals. Winn scratched with wrist soreness In this episode of Cards Hub 365, hosts Joe Roderick and Mike Claiborne discuss the latest developments from the St. Louis Cardinals' spring training. Key Topics Discussed: Miles Mikolas' Strong Outing Mikolas pitched six solid innings, allowing three runs on six hits and two walks. He maintained good control, retiring eight batters in a row at one point. The hosts highlighted that opposing hitters weren't making solid contact, which is a promising sign as the regular season approaches. Bullpen Struggles in the Ninth The Cardinals' bullpen allowed the Miami Marlins to tie the game in the ninth inning. Zach Weiss, a journeyman pitcher, struggled in his appearance. Claiborne noted that Weiss is unlikely to impact the Cardinals' season. Masyn Winn's Wrist Soreness Shortstop Masyn Winn was scratched from the lineup due to wrist soreness. The hosts emphasized caution, noting that wrist injuries can be tricky. However, they speculated that it was likely a precautionary move rather than a serious issue. Opening Day Roster Battles Several players, including Luken Baker, are still fighting for roster spots. With multiple off-days in April, the Cardinals have flexibility in their roster decisions. Final Spring Training Stretch With just a few games left in spring training, players on the roster bubble are making their last push to secure a spot. Former pitcher Brad Thompson weighed in, explaining that this time is critical for players on the fringe of making the team. Upcoming Start for Steven Matz Matz has had an impressive spring, showing consistency and efficiency. The hosts will be watching his upcoming start against the Washington Nationals to see if he can continue his strong form. Broadcasting and Media Updates Claiborne wrapped up the discussion by mentioning his final spring training broadcast, highlighting the importance of listening to radio coverage as some games are not televised. Final Thoughts: The Cardinals are nearing the end of spring training with relatively good health, but final roster decisions remain. Mikolas looks ready for the season, while the bullpen still has some question marks. Masyn Winn’s status will be closely monitored as Opening Day approaches.

]]> 1067 Cards Hub 365: Pallante Starts in Cardinals Spring Training Recap of Cards Hub 365 Podcast – Hosted by Joe Roderick and Hunter Mulholland In the latest episode of Cards Hub 365, hosts Joe Roderick and Hunter Mulholland discuss the ongoing battle for a spot in the St. Louis Cardinals' starting rotation during spring training. The focus of this episode was on Andre Pallante’s performance as he competes for a role against Michael McGreevy. Key Takeaways from the Podcast: Andre Pallante’s Struggles: Pallante started against the Toronto Blue Jays, pitching five innings while allowing six hits, three runs (two earned), and striking out five. His ERA remains high at 6.92, raising questions about his future role on the team. Michael McGreevy’s Case for the Rotation: McGreevy continues to impress, despite giving up a home run to Juan Soto in a previous start. His solid outings are putting pressure on Pallante, making it increasingly likely that he could earn a rotation spot. Pallante’s Future – Rotation or Bullpen? The discussion centered on whether Pallante would start the season in the bullpen, where he has performed well in the past, or remain stretched out as a depth starter in Triple-A Memphis. With left-hander Matthew Liberatore also serving as a long relief option, the team must determine how many long relievers they want to carry. Bullpen and Rotation Outlook: Ryan Helsley and JoJo Romero both had solid outings in relief. The Cardinals are still evaluating their bullpen structure, including potential roles for Steven Matz and Miles Mikolas. Sonny Gray is set to start against the Marlins, and his workload will be closely monitored as opening day nears. Jordan Walker Returns to Action: After missing a week with a minor knee issue, Walker returned to the lineup, a positive sign for the Cardinals’ outfield plans. His return, however, adds to the competition for playing time between Lars Nootbaar and Alec Burleson, both of whom homered in the game. Crowded Outfield Decisions Looming: With Burleson, Nootbaar, and rookie Victor Scott II vying for playing time, questions remain about Brendan Donovan’s role. The hosts debate whether Donovan will play more outfield or second base, depending on how the lineup shakes out. Other Roster Updates: Riley O’Brien was optioned to Memphis, reducing the number of bullpen candidates. José Barrero’s solid hitting this spring could impact fringe roster players like Matt Koperniak, likely sending him to Triple-A to start the season. The Cardinals defeated the Blue Jays 9-5, though Toronto did not send many of their regulars for the game. Looking ahead, Sonny Gray’s next start will be a key focus as the team prepares for opening day on March 27. The episode concluded with reminders of upcoming postgame shows for the St. Louis Blues and St. Louis City SC, as well as a special NCAA Tournament selection show the following evening.

]]> 2146 Cardinals Sign Maton, Graceffo Optioned, Solid Day for Matz Key Topics Discussed: Phil Maton Signing: The Cardinals have signed veteran reliever Phil Maton to a one-year, $2 million deal. The hosts discussed how the team pursued him last year but couldn't reach a deal until now. They see Maton as a solid bullpen addition who could either help stabilize the team or become a trade asset if the Cardinals struggle. Bullpen Discussion: With Michael McGreevy and Gordon Graceffo in the mix, the Cardinals' bullpen will likely be a revolving door throughout the season. The potential for trading Ryan Helsley and how bullpen roles could evolve was also analyzed. Gordon Graceffo Optioned: The decision to send Graceffo to Triple-A suggests the team wants to keep him stretched out as a starting pitcher, rather than moving him into a bullpen role early in the season. Cardinals' Offensive Struggles in Spring Training: The team has struggled offensively, ranking among the worst in MLB for spring training scoring. While the hosts acknowledge spring training stats aren't always predictive, they note concerns over whether certain players will rebound. Yvonne Herrera’s Strong Spring: The young catcher has been impressive offensively, which could force the Cardinals to give him significant playing time, even at DH when not catching. Potential Role for Luken Baker: With his strong spring performance, Baker could see time as a right-handed bat off the bench or even get starts at DH against left-handed pitching. Rotation Depth Chart: Brendan speculated that McGreevy might be the Cardinals' sixth starter option, followed by Graceffo, and that Matthew Liberatore may be destined for a bullpen role. Other Discussions: The unpredictability of relief pitchers and how bullpen arms can drastically change effectiveness year to year. The impact of coaching and minor adjustments in pitch grips that can revive a reliever's career. The Cardinals' offensive lineup projections, debating whether key players will improve or struggle. Quick updates on the Blues, Mizzou basketball, and a St. Louis Billikens win. Final Takeaways: While the Maton signing is a low-risk move, the Cardinals' overall bullpen strategy remains a work in progress. The team’s offensive struggles in spring training are concerning, but many key players are expected to bounce back. The competition for playing time at catcher and DH will be worth watching, especially with Herrera’s emergence. The rotation and bullpen depth remain fluid, with young arms expected to get opportunities throughout the season. Learn more about your ad choices.

The lineup featured mostly Major League-level players, yet they managed just two hits against pitcher Paul Blackburn, who had an ERA close to five last season. Miles Mikolas delivered a strong performance, pitching five innings and allowing only one run. Concerns About the Offense: Despite the presence of regulars like Jordan Walker, Lars Nootbaar, and Nolan Arenado, the offense was lackluster. This is a concerning trend, given that the season is approaching and the team has a new hitting coach. Schaeffer and Roderick questioned whether the Cardinals can truly improve after an underwhelming offseason with little roster movement. Fan Buy-In & Outlook for the Season: The hosts discussed whether fans will remain engaged if the team starts slowly. The team’s inconsistent offensive performances in spring training have raised doubts about whether they can rebound from last year’s struggles. Betting lines have the Cardinals projected for around 77-78 wins, with Roderick leaning optimistically toward 87 wins but acknowledging the team’s wide variance. Pitching Bright Spot: Tekoah Roby One major highlight was prospect Tekoah Roby’s dominant two-inning outing, where he struck out four batters. The hosts debated whether Roby could contribute at the Major League level this season, either as a reliever or a late-season starter. Looking Ahead: The Cardinals will continue their spring training schedule, including a breakout prospect game on Friday. The hosts emphasized the importance of seeing a full-strength lineup perform better in the final weeks before Opening Day.

]]> 2407 Cards Hub 365: Fedde Falters, Barrero Asserting Himself For Bench Role? Pitching Struggles Continue The hosts discussed the struggles of Cardinals starting pitchers, particularly Eric Fedde and Sonny Gray, both of whom gave up home runs in their latest outings. While some of the struggles could be attributed to pitchers "working on things" during spring training, the concern is that Fedde and Gray are supposed to be the top two starters. The importance of the bullpen was emphasized, as weaker starting pitching could put extra strain on relievers. Center Field Battle Victor Scott II has impressed in spring training and appears to have the inside track for the starting center field job. Lars Nootbaar is also getting a lot of reps in center field, possibly as a backup plan in case Scott struggles. Michael Siani, who was once in the conversation, has had a rough spring (batting .046) and could start the season in AAA. Jose Barrero Making a Case for the Bench Infielder Jose Barrero has performed well in camp and is pushing for a spot on the Opening Day roster. The issue is that he's not currently on the 40-man roster, meaning a roster move would need to be made. His versatility and right-handed bat could make him a valuable piece off the bench. Potential Rotation Adjustments The hosts discussed the idea of using piggyback starts, where two pitchers split a game to maximize innings and limit bullpen stress. Matthew Liberatore and Michael McGreevy were mentioned as potential long-relief or piggyback options. Concerns were raised about velocity dips for pitchers like Andre Pallante, though the hosts were optimistic about his role. Trade Speculation & Season Outlook Some fans are already speculating about potential trades involving pitchers like Fedde or Steven Matz, but the hosts pushed back, noting the Cardinals lack depth. They emphasized the importance of maintaining innings-eating starters rather than moving them for short-term gains. The offense remains a question mark, particularly in terms of consistency from players like Nolan Arenado, Nolan Gorman, and Lars Nootbaar. The final 10 games of spring training will be crucial in setting the tone for the season. Final Thoughts The hosts reminded listeners that spring training is still ongoing, and overreactions aren't helpful. The Cardinals’ coaching staff is closely evaluating players, and final roster decisions will be made soon. The team must find a balance between developing young talent and competing in 2024.

The infield competition remains tight, with Jose Barrera and Jose Fermín battling for utility roles. Nolan Gorman’s inconsistencies were noted, though his recent improved hitting gives hope. Alec Burleson's role remains uncertain despite his strong offensive contributions last year.

]]> 2620 Looking at Willson Contreras' Spring Main Topic: Willson Contreras’ Move to First Base The hosts focused on the major offseason decision to transition Willson Contreras from catcher to first base. They highlighted how this change has received little national attention despite its significance. They discussed how Contreras, relieved of catching duties, now has the opportunity to fully focus on his offense, potentially leading to a breakout season. Key Points: Contreras’ Offensive Potential: Without the burden of managing a pitching staff, Contreras could have a more productive offensive year. He has already shown power, with multiple 20+ home run seasons despite limited plate appearances. If he reaches 600+ plate appearances, he could become a 30-35 home run hitter, ranking among the top offensive first basemen in the NL. Adjusting to First Base: The lack of news about his defensive transition is viewed as a positive sign. His experience as a catcher handling low throws and quick reactions may aid in his transition. Spring Training Performance & Outlook: Contreras has been hitting well early in spring training, showing power and efficiency. The Cardinals' success this season could depend on his offensive production. Comparisons were made to other first basemen like Pete Alonso, Matt Olson, and Freddie Freeman. Other Topics Discussed: The importance of Brendan Donovan’s development. The Cardinals’ overall outlook for the season, with playoff hopes dependent on key players stepping up. A discussion on baseball cards, including the Cardinals’ social media post featuring players’ childhood pictures and the resurgence of card collecting. Closing Thoughts: The episode emphasized that if Contreras thrives offensively and his defensive transition goes smoothly, he could be a key factor in the Cardinals’ success.

]]> 1650 Fan overreaction and a look at the bullpen Recap of the Latest "Cards Hub 365" Podcast with Joe Roderick & Brendan Schaeffer In their latest episode of Cards Hub 365, hosts Joe Roderick and Brendan Schaeffer broke down the St. Louis Cardinals' rough spring training loss to the Washington Nationals, a 12-1 blowout. While acknowledging fan frustrations, they emphasized that spring training performances should be taken with caution, as the real test comes once the regular season begins. Key Discussion Points:🔴 Spring Training Overreactions: The hosts noted that many fans are already in panic mode, treating the team’s struggles as a sign of another disastrous season. They pointed out that other competitive teams, like the Phillies and Twins, also have poor spring records, but that doesn’t dictate regular-season outcomes. ⚾ Pitching Performance Analysis: Takoa Roby: While his box score looked rough (2 IP, 4 H, 3 R, 2 ER, 1 HR), Schaeffer defended him, saying he showed resilience after early trouble. A misplayed fly ball in center field hurt his outing. Gordon Graceffo: Unlike Roby, Graceffo’s struggles were more concerning. He walked multiple batters and allowed hard contact, raising questions about whether his role will be as a starter in Triple-A or a bullpen arm in the majors. 🔥 Eric Fedde’s Value to the Cardinals: The hosts debated whether Fedde, who has a 3.72 ERA in St. Louis, should be traded. Some see him as a valuable trade chip, but Roderick and Schaeffer believe he is more useful in the Cardinals' rotation, especially considering the team’s lack of pitching depth. ⚡ Concerns Over the Offense & Hitting Coach Brant Brown: The team’s offensive struggles were highlighted, with some fans questioning the impact of new hitting coach Brant Brown. The hosts agreed that while Brown was hired to improve situational hitting, the players ultimately need to perform, and spring training numbers don’t always tell the full story. 🔜 Upcoming Events: The Cardinals play an evening game against the Astros tomorrow. The Spring Breakout prospects game is set for March 14, where young talents like Quinn Matthews and J.J. Wetherholt will be showcased.

]]> 2108 McGreevy and Pallante start in Split Squad wins, Walker leaves with injury Here's a recap of the latest Cards Hub 365 podcast hosted by Joe Roderick and Mike Claiborne: The St. Louis Cardinals had a successful day, sweeping their split-squad games against the Mets and Nationals. The highlight performances included Mason Wynn getting his first hit, Nolan Arenado driving in runs, and Victor Scott continuing his strong hitting. Pitchers Michael McGreevy and Andre Pallante both delivered solid outings, with McGreevy throwing three scoreless innings in West Palm Beach and Pallante doing the same in Jupiter. However, the most concerning news was an injury to Jordan Walker, who appeared to tweak his knee while making a routine play. The severity is still unknown, and further evaluation will take place in Jupiter. Other key discussions included the potential role of Victor Scott II, who is making a strong case to start the season in the majors, and the ongoing competition for rotation spots. Matthew Liberatore also had a strong outing, but his role might be more valuable out of the bullpen. McGreevy remains an intriguing option as a starter if injuries create an opportunity. The show wrapped up with talk about MLB’s top 100 prospect rankings, with J.J. Weatherholt surprisingly listed as the Cardinals’ top prospect. Claiborne expressed skepticism over how these rankings are determined, while Roderick noted the continued debate over Takoa Roby’s place in the organization. Looking ahead, Sonny Gray is set to make his first spring training appearance, with expectations for him to throw around 50 pitches. Claiborne praised Gray’s preparation and approach to pitching. Overall, the episode covered the Cardinals’ positive performances, roster battles, injury concerns, and future pitching plans. Learn more about your ad choices.

Other key discussions included the potential role of Victor Scott II, who is making a strong case to start the season in the majors, and the ongoing competition for rotation spots. Matthew Liberatore also had a strong outing, but his role might be more valuable out of the bullpen. McGreevy remains an intriguing option as a starter if injuries create an opportunity. The show wrapped up with talk about MLB’s top 100 prospect rankings, with J.J. Weatherholt surprisingly listed as the Cardinals’ top prospect. Claiborne expressed skepticism over how these rankings are determined, while Roderick noted the continued debate over Takoa Roby’s place in the organization. Looking ahead, Sonny Gray is set to make his first spring training appearance, with expectations for him to throw around 50 pitches. Claiborne praised Gray’s preparation and approach to pitching. Overall, the episode covered the Cardinals’ positive performances, roster battles, injury concerns, and future pitching plans. Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 2298 How much should we read into Spring Training lineups? Comparing Brendan Donovan to Ben Zobrist In this episode of Cards Hub 365, hosts Ryan Fagan and Joe Roderick dive into the St. Louis Cardinals' Spring Training and analyze what the lineup choices might indicate. Key Topics Discussed: Spring Training Standings: The Cardinals' record in the Grapefruit League doesn’t hold much significance, as early results rarely reflect regular-season performance. Comparison to teams like the Rockies, who had a strong start in Arizona, but that doesn’t necessarily mean future success. Brendan Donovan & Nolan Gorman’s Positions: Donovan started at second base, while Gorman recently played third base. Joe speculated this could signal potential roster moves, including Nolan Arenado trade rumors. Ryan played devil’s advocate, suggesting these moves are just routine adjustments to give players experience. Nolan Arenado’s Future & Trade Speculation: Discussion on whether Arenado’s no-trade clause limits potential suitors. If injuries occur among the five teams he’s willing to accept a trade to, it could shake things up. The Cardinals' roster depth means moving Arenado would open opportunities for young players. Brendan Donovan’s Potential Impact: Comparison to Ben Zobrist (2009 season) as a versatile utility player who could be an MVP-caliber contributor. Donovan's ability to play multiple positions and improve his batting approach could make him the Cardinals’ most valuable player. Willson Contreras at First Base: Discussion on Contreras being ranked 6th-best first baseman in MLB despite limited experience. His offensive numbers last year ranked him among the top four first basemen. Concerns about his transition from catcher to first base, especially replacing Paul Goldschmidt’s elite defense. Albert Pujols Named Dominican Republic Manager for the 2026 WBC: Excitement around Pujols managing the Dominican Republic in the World Baseball Classic. Discussion on Yadier Molina managing Puerto Rico and the intense rivalry between these nations. Joe shares his WBC experience, calling Dominican Republic vs. Puerto Rico the most electric game he’s ever covered.
