Latest blog entries from St. Louis teams across every league
As the 2026 MLB trade deadline nears, St. Louis Cardinals fans want a quick fix. Here is why Chaim Bloom must stay the course and not make any additions that will hurt their long-term future. Instead, he must still sell.
After a tumultuous past three seasons, the St. Louis Cardinals enter 2026 with a clean slate throughout the organization. The franchise has seen many promising young stars take leaps forward throughout their farm system this season; now that we have a decent sample size, let’s take a look at who is shining above the others. […] The post Top Standouts in the St. Louis Cardinals’ Farm System appeared first on Just Baseball .
The St. Louis Blues didn't enter a full rebuild at last season's NHL trade deadline and instead got hot at the end of the year. Going into next season, could the Blues be contending, rather than rebuilding?
Roster changes could be coming in St. Louis this summer, but don't expect to see the Blues move center Robert Thomas. According to multiple reports, the Blues have pulled Thomas off the trade market, despite being involved in trade conversations around the veteran center, dating back to January. Thomas, 26, is signed for $8.1 million AAV until the 2031-32 season. Thomas owns a full no-trade clause and would have to approve any move. Thomas led the Blues in scoring last season, recording 25 go...
With the massive upgrades to the St. Louis Cardinals facility in Jupiter, Nolan Gorman is working to fix his swing in the cage rather than in live games before returning to action.
The St. Louis Cardinals surpassed expectations for the first third of the season but things have gone back towards that low baseline in recent weeks. With minimal support brought in to help a makeshift starting rotation, it should not be surprise that the holdovers from the previous season have been pretty much as anticipated. Outside […]
St. Louis Cardinals prospect Joshua Baez has stolen headlines with his home run power, but his arm and speed are also very good tools. Baez used his arm on Saturday to nail a runner at home. Baez will make his Major League debut soon.
The St. Louis Cardinals felt like a team with nothing to lose when the 2026 season began, but an unexpectedly strong start has now vaulted them into a time where there suddenly seems to be greater expectations of what they can achieve. How they deal with this will tell us a lot about what kind […]
The St. Louis Cardinals began 2026 in a full-scale rebuild under new president of baseball operations Chaim Bloom, trading away veterans Sonny Gray, Nolan Arenado and Willson Contreras to restock a depleted farm system. The result is a rotation headlined by Matthew Liberatore, Dustin May, and Michael McGreevy, a functional but uninspiring group that lacks […] The post Cardinals’ perfect trade offer for Mets’ Freddy Peralta appeared first on ClutchPoints .
This week, I am joined by AAA RHP Ryan Murphy and his father, Chuck, for a special Father’s Day episode. So often on this site, we focus solely on the numbers and performance, but we lose sight of the human element to sports, and as we know, Tony La Russa used to famously quote, “Men, […]
The Kansas City Royals produced one of the season’s best defensive plays Friday night, with Tyler Tolbert and Michael Massey right in the middle of it. Their remarkable eighth-inning sequence helped preserve a 6-5 win over the St. Louis Cardinals at Kauffman Stadium. The play unfolded with Kansas City holding a slim lead and the […] The post Royals’ Tyler Tolbert, Michael Massey connect for unreal out vs. Cardinals appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Blair Kerkhoff writes that Tyler Tolbert came up big in the Friday win over the Cardinals. “You never know when your name is going to be called,” Tolbert said. “You just have to be ready.” That was the case throughout the game for Tolbert. In the sixth inning, after failing to get down a pair […]
The St. Louis Cardinals seemed destined for a rebuild after an offseason of limited adding to the roster. In fact, anything resembling a veteran player became a topic of trade discussion. Four contributors donned new threads by spring training. Right-handed pitcher Sonny Gray and first baseman Willson Contreras found themselves in Boston. Nolan Arenado, who […] The post Two Veterans Have Surprising St. Louis Cardinals Eyeing October appeared first on Just Baseball .
Sonny Gray was brutally honest in his assessment of the Red Sox, saying they're "not a good team" after accepting a trade out of St. Louis this offseason.
I really don’t know what to think about Andre Pallante. After a bad 2025 season, I was pretty ambivalent about him. Sure he showed some promise in 2024, but even when he is pitching well, he doesn’t get a ton of strikeouts or do anything overly flashy. Yet here we are approaching the midpoint of […]
The St. Louis Cardinals and Kansas City Royals will take a one-day break in the middle of their three-game series in deference to the World Cup.
The Florida Panthers could be facing a significant vacancy in net, and the trade market may hold their answer. Sergei Bobrovsky is a pending unrestricted free agent, his contract talks with Florida have stalled, and if he walks on July 1, the two-time defending champions would be without a proven NHL starter for 2026-27. Nick Kypreos of Sportsnet recently linked Jordan Binnington to the Panthers on his trade board, and David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period independently suggested the same dest...
The Royals hit eight doubles in last night’s game to dominate the Cardinals; they added five more tonight en route to another victory. This time, they won 6-5 over their cross-state rivals. Seth Lugo made his return from the 7-day concussion IL tonight, and it didn’t start great. He walked Iván Herrera with one out, […]
Michael McGreevy did not have his best game Friday night in Kansas City. His outing started decent, but the latter innings not so much. Unfortunately, the St. Louis Cardinals offense didn’t accomplish much either as the Royals were too much for them again. You wouldn’t know that Kansas City has the sixth worst record in […]
Matthew Liberatore lasted just 1.2 innings on Thursday as he got dominated by the Kansas City bats. He gave up seven runs on 48 pitches, making it his shortest and most expensive outing of the year. The St. Louis Cardinals ultimately lost in a massive 14-6 blowout. The Royals made contact on 19 of their […] The post “The Loss Is on Me” – 26YO Cardinals Pitcher Feels Dejected After Shocking Start Against Royals appeared first on EssentiallySports .
Before the season started, the Royals moved the fences in. The idea was that it would balance the offensive profile of Kauffman Stadium to be a bit closer to the league average. One thing that many people discussed was that it might lead to more home runs but fewer doubles. You would not have known […]
The St. Louis Cardinals will try to pretend Thursday’s game against the Kansas City Royals never happened as they’ll send Michael McGreevy to the mound for a hopefully different result. The Royals have Seth Lugo ready to go for Friday night’s game which will be watchable only on Apple TV+. First pitch is scheduled for […]
On Juneteenth, a look back at Tom Alston, the man who broke the color barrier for the St. Louis Cardinals
Kansas City Royals star shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. exited the team’s game on Thursday against the St. Louis Cardinals with a knee injury. The Royals earned a 14-6 win, but all attention was on Witt’s injury after the game. Tricia Whitaker of Apple TV provided an update on Witt’s injury status on Friday before the […] The post Royals’ Bobby Witt Jr. gets ‘best case scenario’ injury update appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The San Diego Padres staved off the sweep against the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday. They still lost the series, but the offense outscored St. Louis eight runs to seven across the series. That’s mostly due to the Friars’ six run outburst in the series finale. That performance gives the offense some momentum heading into […]
