Jim Hayes joins Chris to discuss the Cardinals upcoming offseason, and address sizzling allegations of greasing the palms of local youth umpires.

Rick Gehman of RickRunGood.com is back to preview the PGA DFS weekend as the tour heads to The Bermuda Championship with The Masters just a few short weeks away.

What happens now? The season is officially over and free agency for some popular Cardinals starts soon. We also talk about the questionable pitching change in last night’s Dodgers/Rays World Series game. Brian Walton looks at renewing Jeff Albert’s contract and if it’s time to scrap his approach. The numbers show that slugging is way down and the team is closing in on last in the league in hits. We talk DH for 2021 and more too:

Jack Flaherty joins Chris to talk about heading into an offseason after a wild 2020 MLB season, his appreciation for Yadier Molina & Adam Wainwright, and what he's made of the rest of the professional sports world over the last few months. Chris and Jack also listen in to the first interview they ever did together, the night Flaherty was drafted by the Cardinals in 2014, and react to the chat six years later.

Cardinals vet Adam Wainwright joins me today to talk about free agency, his attachment to Yadi and more. He gives us insight on how hard the shutdown was for him personally and his mentality for the complete game on his 39th birthday. Does he think about leaving St. Louis this year? Are he and Yadi a package deal? How close is a broadcasting career? An update too on his great charity, Big League Impact. Listen here:

Chris gives his thoughts on the weekend, including Clayton Kershaw & the Dodgers taking a 3-2 lead over the Rays in the World Series, and Mizzou’s win over Kentucky.

Derrick Goold of stltoday.com reports to us live today from the World Series down in Texas. We get his thoughts on ex-Cardinal contributions to this intense series as well as reasons behind the trades that got them there. Some good information too on what could be a delayed spring training in 2021. He tells us about the neutral site and the chances of it lasting beyond 2020 plus some names potentially in the mix for the Cardinals to sign this off-season.

It's a football Friday on The Chris Hrabe Show! Sports Illustrated's Ben Heisler helps set your DFS lineup and gives his perspective on the gambling markets, and Peter Edmiston from WHBQ Radio and The Athletic joins from Memphis with perspective from SEC Country.

Brian Barnhart, voice of Fighting Illini football, joins me this morning to preview the start of their unique season tonight. The team heads to Madison with Lovie Smith and his staff. Some great transfer students to talk about as well as returning players. Brian says the receivers are as deep as they've ever been. We also discuss the recruiting efforts made in St. Louis and Missouri. Should be a fun 8+ games. Listen here:

Tony La Russa managing again? It could happen in Chicago and a lot of Cardinals fans are behind it. We break it down with Ben Frederickson of stltoday.com.

We talk about the Gold Glove nominations and the process behind it this year. No Yadi this year much to his chagrin. It’s all done by numbers this year which has propped up some unexpected names. Tyler O’Neill?

Mookoe Betts is fun to watch and Randy Arozarena isn’t half bad either. Consensus is that the World Series will be entertaining at the least. We take a look at the matchups going forward.

We break down the Mizzou/Kentucky game tomorrow and take a look at the Big 10/Illini campaign too. Listen here:

It's Thursday, so that means Danny Mac is in studio hanging out with Chris on The Chris Hrabe Show! Chris & Dan talk about the players that are scattered around baseball from the NL Central clubs, and how financial implications of this offseason could impact how clubs operate at both the major league and minor league levels. Also, will Yadier Molina reach free agency, or re-up with the Cardinals first?

Finally, it's another "Thursday List." This week, the topic is, "sports fans faux pas." Send your submissions to the guys to get in on the list!
