In this episode of The Bernie Show, Bernie Miklasz breaks down five things he loves about the Cardinals’ strong 4-2 start to the 2025 season — recorded just before the Boston series begins.

He dives deep into the emergence of Lars Nootbaar as a top-tier leadoff hitter and clubhouse leader, praises the impressive performance of the team’s young core (Herrera, Scott, Walker, Gorman, Winn), and highlights a noticeable shift in the team’s hitting approach under new coach Brant Brown.

Bernie also shares insights on how the Cardinals’ catchers and outfield are already outperforming last year’s dismal numbers — and why fans should be excited.
