Every week, two of the Best Fans in Baseball (TM) bring you all the news and analysis you need about the St. Louis Cardinals. With wild monkeys roaming the streets of St. Louis, Daniel (@C70) and David (@iPopEditor) talk about a little less interesting news. The Cards dropped their streamer this week, so what does that mean for both the viewing fanbase and the payroll? What does the club see in Ryne Stanek that they signed him to a deal? Will the Alex Bregman signing loosen things for Nolan Arenado? All that and much more!

Every week, two of the Best Fans in Baseball (TM) bring you all the news and analysis you need about the St. Louis Cardinals. Well, maybe more like every month, but after a gap Daniel (@C70) and David (@iPopEditor) are back to cover some of what has happened and some of what might happen. Was the timing of the Sonny Gray trade a little surprising? Did that trigger Willson Contreras to want out of town? What kind of activity will we see this week in Orlando? All that and much more!

Every week, two of the Best Fans in Baseball (TM) bring you all the news and analysis you need about the St. Louis Cardinals. OK, every week is a little bit of a stretch, but after a month away Daniel (@C70) and David (@iPopEditor) finally get back to business. The guys talk about some takeaways from the Chaim Bloom press conference, how exciting and interesting the 2025 playoffs were, and what they'd like to see from Bloom as the offseason trade and free agent market opens. Good to be back, come give it a listen!

Every week, two of the Best Fans in Baseball (TM) bring you all the news and analysis you need about the St. Louis Cardinals. The 2025 season has come to a close and Daniel (@C70) and David (@iPopEditor) are here to mark the occasion. Was intentionally walking Michael Busch on Saturday a good thing or a troll job? Should the closing lineup have been a little more robust? And the less said about Miles Mikolas the better. The guys also talk about the upcoming press conferences by John Mozeliak and Chaim Bloom plus the fates of the no-trade-clause guys. A rough season but, hey, we aren't Mets fans!

Every week, two of the Best Fans in Baseball (TM) bring you all the news and analysis you need about the St. Louis Cardinals. We've seen the last of the Cardinals at Busch Stadium for 2025 and while there are still some more games, there was a lot of finality this weekend. Miles Mikolas made his last start on the home mound, John Mozeliak watched his last games from the POBO suite, and Nolan Arenado walked off to a huge ovation without even playing. Daniel (@C70) and David (@iPopEditor) talk about some of the endings and some of the beginnings, starting with Chaim Bloom and what he might do this winter. How can Cardinal fans stay engaged when a rebuild is coming? Let's find out together.

Every week, two of the Best Fans in Baseball (TM) bring you all the news and analysis you need about the St. Louis Cardinals. It was a very rough week for the Redbirds (well, not the Springfield ones) and Daniel (@C70) and David (@iPopEditor) aren't terribly inclined to talk about it. They do give some kudos to Miles Mikolas (of all people) while talking about the pitching problems next year may have. Are we expecting too much from Chaim Bloom or will this actually be a busy offseason? Plus Masyn Winn gets shut down, finally. All that and more on this week's outing!

Every week, two of the Best Fans in Baseball (TM) bring you all the news and analysis you need about the St. Louis Cardinals. With the Cards about to take on the Mariners, Daniel (@C70) and David (@iPopEditor) dive into a few things team related. Would Sonny Gray waive his no-trade this winter? Would the Cardinals actually be able to trade him? How about the buzz around Jordan Walker this week? Was it a big deal? The guys also remember back to September 8, 1998.

Every week, two of the Best Fans in Baseball (TM) bring you all the news and analysis you need about the St. Louis Cardinals. The Cards took two of three from their closest wild card rival but splitting with Pittsburgh before that took a lot of wind out of the sails, if it was there to begin with. Daniel (@C70) and David (@iPopEditor) talk about the flagging offense, what to watch for in September, and who the 2026 catcher might be among other things. Spend your Labor Day with the guys!
