Latest blog entries from St. Louis teams across every league
The St. Louis Cardinals will try to achieve the baseball equivalent of a Rocky Mountain High Saturday night as they do battle with the Colorado Rockies in game 2 of the weekend series. Matthew Liberatore gets the start for the Cardinals while the Rockies give the baseball to RPH Mason Adams. First pitch is set […]
After dropping the series opener to the St. Louis Cardinals (71-71), the Colorado Rockies (54-87) look for some magic on Harry Potter night at Coors Field. The Rockies seemed to have yesterday’s game in hand, surging to a 6-4 lead after a strong sixth inning and carrying that into the top of the ninth. A […]
The St. Louis Cardinals experienced unprofessional umpiring last night from Doug Eddings, and now his story is not lining up after Colorado Rockies catcher Hunter Goodman denied a claim of his that he asked to have Hancel Rincon's hat checked.
The St. Louis Cardinals were subjected to an ugly moment from umpire Doug Eddings on Sept. 4, but the Double-A Springfield Cardinals are capitalizing on the incident with good humor by promoting a "crooked cap giveaway" on Sept. 10.
It was a wild scene in Colorado on Friday night when umpire Doug Eddings decided to call out Rockies rookie pitcher Hancel Rincon for... wait for it... wearing his hat a bit crooked. It all devolved from there, and by the end of it, St. Louis Cardinals manager Oli Marmol was ejected, the Rockies were granted an undeserved run on a brutal call at the plate, and Eddings is being destroyed all across baseball. Rincon, a 24-year-old from the Dominican, was making his major league debut . In the mi...
St. Louis Blues center Robert Thomas' name was in trade rumors last season, but the Blues have recommitted to him, naming him captain of the team this week. Thomas' two-way game is impressive, but if he wants a spot on Team Canada at best-on-best tournaments, he needs to continue growing his game.
MLB umpire Doug Edding disgraced both himself and the sport with his conduct against St. Louis Cardinals rookie pitcher Hancel Rincón on Friday night.
Doug Eddings has had several run ins with the St. Louis Cardinals prior to Friday night's fiasco with Oli Marmol.
As the Cardinals fight for a Wild Card spot, manager Oli Marmol fiercely defended his players during a heated argument with an umpire over Hancel Rincon. The St. Louis Cardinals are among the tight group of NL contenders who will need external help to secure a spot in the Wild Card Series. As the Redbirds fight down the stretch, manager Oli Marmol is playing every game like it’s his last—and a heated confrontation with home-plate umpire Doug Eddings over rookie reliever Hancel Rincon proved ...
If the season ended today, Sal Stewart is the presumed National League Rookie of the Year. This bothers me. As you may be aware, I am a fan of the St. Louis Cardinals. The Cardinals hired a new fellow by the name of JJ Wetherholt to play second base and bat leadoff for them this […]
The St. Louis Blues reshaped their roster for the 2026–27 season, which saw them add center depth, defensive stability, and physicality while parting ways with their leading goal scorer from the past three seasons.
Baseball umpires could be known to sometimes have some control issues, but rarely has it ever been taken to the level that Doug Eddings took it on Friday night when the St. Louis Cardinals visited the Colorado Rockies. Eddings stopped play in the sixth inning when he appeared to tell Hancel Rincón, making his Major…
Chris Sale has needed to counter Cristopher Sanchez, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Brandon Pfaadt, Gerrit Cole, and Jacob Misiorowski in the last month. While the Braves haven’t beaten them all with Sale leading the way, the results have been terrific. How about 67 strikeouts, 4 walks and 1 home run allowed in 52 innings pitched in the […]
St. Louis Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said home plate umpire Doug Eddings made a "power-hungry move" by telling rookie pitcher Hancel Rincon to fix his hat in the middle his MLB debut Friday at the Colorado Rockies.
Hancel Rincon's MLB debut was unlike any other.
The Rockies spent much of Friday night letting opportunities slip away, then finally broke through in a four-run sixth inning that turned a 4-1 deficit into a 5-4 lead. TJ Rumfield added insurance with a 441-foot home run an inning later, and the bullpen carried the two-run advantage into the ninth. Then it disappeared. Jordan […]
St. Louis Cardinals manager Oli Marmol tore home plate umpire Doug Eddings apart in his postgame interview following a poor showing by Eddings.
Game Summary Andrea Pallante pitched 5 stout innings to get the Cardinals started. Gorman, Saggese, Burleson and Walker drove in early runs to stake the Cardinals to an early 4-1 lead. Unfortunately, the Cardinal bullpen melted down yet again, with a disastrous debut by Hancel Rincon, allowing the Rockies to go up 6-4. But a […]
Umpire Doug Eddings missed multiple important calls, had a laughable reason for a pitch violation on Hancel Rincon, and ejected Oliver Marmol in the St. Louis Cardinals game against the Colorado Rockies.
The St. Louis Cardinals head east from California, but not that far east as they’ll land in Denver on Friday for a weekend series against the Colorado Rockies. Andre Pallante returns from the injured list to the mound for the Cardinals while the Rockies will give the ball to Ryan Feltner. First pitch is scheduled […]
The Orioles handed Colorado its franchise-record 10th consecutive home loss Monday night when Colton Cowser robbed Jake McCarthy of a potential two-run walk-off home run to preserve a 2-1 Baltimore win. The Rockies responded with a 4-2 win Tuesday before taking Wednesday’s finale 6-5 in 11 innings. Colorado was down to its final strike in […]
This week’s mailbag at MLBTR will tackle questions on the 2026 Rookie of the Year races, William Contreras’ future in Milwaukee, Brayan Bello’s trade candidacy, the outlooks for Spencer Torkelson and Nolan Gorman in Detroit and St. Louis, and more. (Note: questions are lightly edited for clarity and brevity.) Let’s get into it! How do […]
Coming off a good series in Los Angeles (any winning series there is good), the Cardinals make their only 2026 trip into Denver this weekend for a three-game set. Grandkids will be in tow as I take in these games in person. The Rockies appear to be playing out the string, prepping more for next […]
September 4: Goold’s report indicates that Dobbins had a procedure on his UCL but it was not quite a full Tommy John surgery. His earlier reconstruction, from his 2021 surgery, was not replaced but rather mended the ligament. This week’s surgery also repaired his flexor tendon. September 3: Cardinals pitcher Hunter Dobbins underwent reconstructive elbow […]
Although Robert Thomas’ name has popped up on NHL trade boards over the last several months, the St. Louis Blues sent a strong message about his future by naming the forward the 25th team captain in franchise history on Wednesday. Thomas, who has led the Blues in scoring in each of the last three seasons, […] The post What Robert Thomas said about being named 25th captain in Blues history appeared first on ClutchPoints .
