Head coach Craig Berube was fired on May 13th , after meeting with the Toronto Maple Leafs general manager, John Chayka, and executive advisor of hockey operations, Mats Sundin. The group met on the weekend, before GM Chayka would pull the trigger and restart the team's hunt for a coach after Berube's two seasons behind Toronto's bench. Once thought to be a premier coaching prospect in the NHL after winning a Stanley Cup with the St. Louis Blues in 2019, Berube's stock has f...
The Royals are now in the midst of their second losing streak of at least five games. They only have a single five-game winning streak to counter them. They could start another one of those today, but it’s hard to believe it while they’re losing. Noah Cameron was surprisingly good for the Royals last year. […]
The I-70 series continues Saturday as it’s game 2 of the St. Louis Cardinals playing host for the Kansas City Royals. Kyle Leahy (4-3, 4.31 PCL, 32 SO) will start the Saturday afternoon affair for the Cardinals while Noah Cameron (2-2, 5.55 PCL, 32 SO) will begin the game for the Royals. First pitch is scheduled for 1:15pm at […]
Manon Rheaume is a name that is forever etched in Tampa Bay Lightning history. On September 23, 1992 (back when the Tampa Tribune was just 25 cents) she appeared in a pre-season game for the Lightning against the St. Louis Blues, stopping seven of nine shots in one period of play. Her debut marked the first time a woman participated in one of the four major North American sports leagues.
Rheaume would appear in two games for the Atlanta Knights that season, posting a 0-1-1 record with a 6...
The 2026 MLB Draft, where the Cardinals hold the 13th overall pick, will take place July 12-14, making it now less than two months away. With the college and high school regular seasons winding to a close, I thought now would be a good time to check in on who the Cardinals may be eyeing […]
The Royals’ bats continued the vanishing act they have taken on the road so often this year, and the Royals dropped the series opener to the Cardinals. Michael Wacha, for the first time since his last start, did his job. He pitched six innings, allowing three runs. Would you like more innings and fewer runs? […]
The St. Louis Cardinals began rivalry weekend welcoming the Kansas City Royals to town and Jordan Walker was on the welcoming committee hitting his 13th home run leading St. Louis to a game 1 win in the I-70 series, but it would take more than 9 innings to do it. The first three innings of […]
We're learning of a potential massive trade that would have had a major impact in the Western Conference. According to plugged-in insider Michael Russo, the Minnesota Wild offered the St. Louis Blues Jesper Wallstedt and Danila Yurov at the deadline for Robert Thomas. The Blues rejected the offer.

The St. Louis Cardinals return home after a successful west coast road trip to kick off the I-70 series versus the Kansas City Royals. Dustin May gets the start for St. Louis while former Cardinal Michael Wacha will take the mound for Kansas City. First pitch is scheduled for 7:15p in Busch Stadium and the […]
The last time we gathered here for one of my recaps, the Royals had just won the second of two straight against the Detroit Tigers. It was the third straight weekend the Royals had won the first games of a weekend series, and the first two weekends had ended in a sweep. Things were looking […]
The Minnesota Wild wanted to go all-in this season, but the St. Louis Blues had other ideas. There's been multiple reports surfacing that the Wild made a serious trade offer for Blues' center Robert Thomas, which included goaltender Jesper Wallstedt and forward Danila Yurov. The Minnesota Wild went after Robert Thomas and offered up Danila Yurov and Jesper Wallstedt at the deadline, but the Blues passed 👀 (via @RussoHockey ) pic.twitter.com/AFPNlxrPB0 — B/R Open Ice (@BR_OpenIce) May 15, 2026 ...
The Cardinals have missed the playoffs in each of the last three seasons, suffering losing seasons in two of those years. After losing 84 games last year, they traded away veterans Willson Contreras, Brendan Donovan, Nolan Arenado, and Sonny Gray. They now have the second-youngest lineup and fourth-youngest pitching staff, and have gotten off to […]
Nolan Gorman has been a long term project in the Cardinals franchise with some obvious upside. The obvious upside, of course, is the fact that when he makes good contact you could build a statue of his pose and the homerun. If you put a Gorman bomb up against a sunset, you might actually watch […]
The Arizona Cardinals knew that, despite being one of the fourth-place finishers in last year’s regular season, their schedule this year wasn’t going to be an easy one. In fact, it is the third most difficult based on the 2025 win-loss records of their upcoming opponents. Part of the issue is the fact that three […]
Authors note: The data in this article is from early this past week. The theme was written before yesterday’s come-from-ahead, then come-from-behind win, but you will see many of characteristics I laid out here played out in the series ending game against the A’s. To start with a high-level summary, the 2026 edition of the […]
The A’s took on the St. Louis Cardinals today at Sutter Health Park in the rubber match of the three-game interleague series. After dropping the opener Tuesday, the A’s bounced back with a 6-4 victory last night. Taking the mound for the Athletics today is 28-year-old lefty Jacob Lopez. He faced off against Michael McCreevy […]
Game Summary Today’s game featured stingy starting pitching from both the A’s starter Lopez and the Cardinals Michael McGreevy. McGreevy lowers his ERA to 2.10. Jordan Walker and Victor Scott II hit homeruns, leading the Cardinals to a late 3-1 lead. However, the Cardinals bullpen was unable to hold the lead against the powerful A’s […]
The St. Louis Cardinals will wrap up their west coast swing Thursday afternoon as Michael McGreevy will start the game against the Athletics. Left-hander Jacob Lopez is scheduled to take the mound for the Athletics. First pitch scheduled for 2:05pm central time in Suter Health Park in Sacramento. Game broadcast on Cardinals.tv.
Last night the A’s tied up this inter-league three-game series with the St. Louis Cardinals at Sutter Health Park in West Sac, and today we get the rubber match at 12:05 PM. The Athletics currently reside in first place in the American League West with a 22-20 record, while the Cards are in third place […]
On Monday, I covered the hitters on the Memphis Redbirds (AAA) and Springfield Cardinals (AA). I was trying to fit the Peoria Chiefs (A+) and Palm Beach Cardinals (A) on there, but realized there were a few names that would have been cut that I didn’t necessarily want cut. And I knew I could include […]
For everyone who wondered why it took so long to fire Berube after the GM hire of 10 days ago, this is going to be an interminable wait.
Matthew Liberatore had a really strong 4 innings, but it was a 41-pitch 5th inning that ended his night and allowed the Athletics to beat the St. Louis Cardinals 6-2. After a relatively quiet first three innings, the Cardinals were first to score in the top of the 4th inning when Nolan Gorman singled to […]
The A’s got back in the win column on Wednesday evening, bouncing back from a series-opening loss by beating the St. Louis Cardinals 6-2 in convincing fashion in front of the Sacramento crowd. And a certain outfielder had an… electric debut. Too much? Ginn dominates again Right-hander J.T. Ginn entered this contest coming off the […]
The St. Louis Cardinals California vacation continues Wednesday night as Matthew Liberatore will start the game for St. Louis. J.T. Ginn will take the mound for the Athletics. First pitch at Sacramento’s Sutter Health Park is scheduled for 8:40pm central time and the game will be televised on Cardinals.tv.
The A’s are back at it looking to put an end to this two-game losing streak. At 21-20 the A’s are close to the .500 mark and would like to avoid hitting that threshold tonight. They’ll face the St. Louis Cardinals again in this one and with the Mariners just one game behind and on […]
