With Allen (@amedlock1) back in the saddle, he and Daniel (@C70) spend some time talking about the end of the Cardinals' season as they have guaranteed themselves back-to-back losing seasons for the first time in basically forever. Is this regression or fatigue? What needs to happen this winter, assuming the CBA allows it? What are the guys looking for out of the last two games of the 2026 season? Names like Ivan Herrera, Tekoah Roby, Victor Scott II, Matthew Liberatore, and Blaze Jordan, among others, make an appearance. Make us a part of the final weekend!

With Allen (@amedlock1) and Daniel (@C70) unable to make their calendars mesh, Daniel brings in Scott Plaza (@MrPlaztastic17), star of podcast and blog, to talk about the end of the Cardinals season. The guys discuss Kyle Leahy's usage, the curious lack of trying anyone else--even occasionally--in the closer role, Leo Bernal and what he means to the roster, and overall what 2026 was like and what we can take from it. Plus a little shade thrown at a former Dodger who seems obsessed with arm speed....

A wild and infuriating spectacle in Colorado Friday night kicks off Daniel (@C70) and Allen (@amedlock1) talking about the week that was in St. Louis Cardinals baseball. Hancel Rincon will never forget his debut, though maybe not for the best of reasons. What exactly what Doug Eddings's problem and did he take it out on the Cardinals with that play at the plate? How many terrible things can one umpire do in the span of like 5 minutes? The guys also discuss the series win against Los Angeles, the loss of Hunter Dobbins for 2027, and the upcoming Hall of Fame weekend for Albert Pujols and Yadier Molina. Make sure you are up to dress code and join us!

While Cardinals players seem to be dropping like flies as the IL piles up, apparently Daniel (@C70) and Allen (@amedlock1) are having some similar issues.

Can Nolan Gorman save his job? How much do they miss Masyn Winn? All that and more, as we ask you forgive the glitches!

The Cardinals have had a remarkable run of keeping their starting pitchers healthy. Then on Friday, one goes on the IL and one leaves the game with an injury. Daniel (@C70) and Allen (@amedlock1) talk about the injuries to Andre Pallante and Hunter Dobbins and speculate about their replacements. Also, Everson Pereira left Friday's game after being hit by a pitch, perhaps breaking his hand. Who would come up in his place? There's also discussion about the wild card race and Oli Marmol's chances of being Manager of the Year. Come spend some time with the guys!

The calendar, forcing the guys to wait until Saturday to record, helped out Daniel (@C70) and Allen (@amedlock1) with fresh news to discuss.

The guys talk about what to expect from Baez and how much patience the fan base will have with him. They also discuss Matthew Liberatore's good start on Friday and the future of the rotation, plus who they trust in the bullpen. Lots of good chatter so come give it a listen!

It took until almost the very end, but the Cardinals made a couple of trades that sent old friends out and brought new prospects in. Daniel (@C70) and Allen (@amedlock1) talk about the impact losing Dustin May, JoJo Romero, and Lars Nootbaar would have (perhaps not as much as you'd think) as well as the exciting new world that the Cards are in with regards to the farm team. They also discuss the series win against the Yankees and touch on the upcoming schedule. It will be an interesting last couple of months, no May about it!

Last year out of the All-Star Break the Cardinals went to Arizona, got swept, then lost a series to the struggling Rockies.
