Why the Dustin May Gamble is Perfect for St. Louis
Critics are already blasting the Cardinals for signing injury-prone pitcher Dustin May, but they are missing the bigger picture of what a rebuild actually looks like. Bernie Miklasz breaks down why this low-risk, high-upside gamble is exactly the kind of move Chaim Bloom should be making right now.
In this video:
- The Rebuild Reality: Why signing aging stars like Verlander or Scherzer makes zero sense for St. Louis in 2025.
- The "Pierpont" Effect: How Director of Pitching Matt Pierpont’s success in Seattle could unlock May’s potential.
- Medical Deep Dive: From elbow surgeries to a torn esophagus, we review May's traumatic road back to the mound.
- Historical Context: Comparing May to past Cardinals reclamation projects like Chris Carpenter and Jason Isringhausen.
- Pitch Lab Analysis: A look at May's elite sweeper spin rate and what changes he needs to make to his pitch arsenal.
