The St. Louis Cardinals BROKE Their Best Reliever | The Bernie Show
Bernie Miklasz takes a deep, data-driven dive into the mysterious decline of Cardinals closer Ryan Helsley. From a dominant 2024 campaign to one of the worst fastballs in baseball this season, Bernie breaks down the alarming trends, pitch selection issues, and organizational failures holding Helsley back.
With the trade deadline looming, is it too late for the Cardinals to salvage his value? And will the front office make another short-sighted mistake?
