With a major snow storm bearing down on both of them, Daniel (@C70) chats with Lynn Worthy of the Post-Dispatch (@LWorthySports). (The storm kept Allen (@amedlock1) from joining the fun.) Daniel and Lynn talk about the changes in the job after shifting to the columnist side of things before tackling the current Cardinals squad. There's a large delta on what this team could be which makes it fascinating. Who is going to emerge as a leader should Brendan Donovan get traded? What's the personality going to be? The guys also get into Chaim Bloom's tenure and what the future holds there. A good conversation to help you think warm baseball thoughts!

The winter meetings came and went and for the Cardinals, it was a quiet one, at least on the face of it.

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?

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!

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.
