The winter meetings came and went and for the Cardinals, it was a quiet one, at least on the face of it. Daniel (@C70) and Allen (@amedlock1) talk about Willson Contreras's availability, the lack of activity in Orlando, and when we might see some activity. There's also discussion of Chaim Bloom's comments about Ivan Herrera's training and the draft lottery disappointment. All this and a few rabbit trails wandered down as we get ready for the holidays!

It's been a little bit since the guys got together, but Daniel (@C70) and Allen (@amedlock1) always pick up where they left off. How surprising was the Sonny Gray trade, at least in timing? What are the expectations for this week at the winter meetings? How clear is the change in philosophy from the change in the front office? Plus some talk about the contention window and what 2026 might look like. Give it a listen!

The holiday season is upon us and so Daniel (@C70) and Allen (@amedlock1) are talking turkey. The Cards have stuffed their 40-man roster with some new seasonings while some other trimmings have been discarded. Can we read anything out of Chaim Bloom's carvings? Can Jordan Walker and Nolan Gorman be a featured dish or are they destined to be the casserole that gets overlooked? Could Bloom cook up a trade before the big gathering? Tuck in your napkin and enjoy another podcast serving!

Daniel (@C70) continues his tour around the majors with a stop in Denver, talking with Shannon (@LoveTheRox) about being a Rockies fan. What's it like being a season ticket holder of this team? What got her involved in baseball and how did she get started online? Is Paul DePodesta the answer? And is she disappointed the Rockies didn't set the record last year? Plus talk about Matt Holliday and Nolan Arenado for the Cards fans listening. Come give it a listen!

After a little time off, Daniel (@C70) and Allen (@amedlock1) get back to talking baseball. The guys discuss the playoffs before turning to some of the moves the Cardinals made this week. Where do we see the hand of Chaim Bloom? Do any of these moves really mean anything or will they be quickly forgotten? There's also discussion of why no Cardinal personnel filled any open managerial/front office spot, what the jump from college to pro may be like for Tony Vitello, and lots of CBA worry. Plus Alec Burleson and Masyn Winn won awards! Come give it a listen!

Daniel (@C70) continues his look around baseball, talking with Gregg Masterson (@greggtmasterson) about his Twins fandom. How did he get tied into the Twins and what kept him there? Why is the '87 team not nearly as discussed as the '91 champs? How did he get into content creation? The guys then talk about the MLB Fan Council, especially given the attention it has gathered this week. What hope is there as a Twins fan for the future? And, for the Cardinals fans, some talk about Sonny Gray. It's a packed show!

With still no direct Cardinals news given the playoff hiatus, Daniel (@C70) and Allen (@amedlock1) spend some time with a few other topics. The postseason has been remarkable, even if the expected NL winner turned out to be the actual NL winner. Is that just a function of payroll? Is Shohei Ohtani the greatest ever? The guys then dig into a little bit of the injury news, with three Cardinals going under the knife recently, and how that might affect Chaim Bloom's approach. They wrap it up talking about the former Cardinals skipper now being the former Padres skipper as well. Come enjoy this random assortment of baseball talk!
