Latest blog entries from St. Louis teams across every league
After a disappointing end to Monday’s game when the bullpen imploded, the St. Louis Cardinals will try again Tuesday night as Matthew Liberatore will start against the Washington Nationals who will send Cade Cavalli to the mound. Start time is 5:45pm central time as the game is scheduled to be viewable on Cardinals.tv. Here’s the […]
After snapping their losing streak with a comeback win last night, the Nats are looking to win their second series of the season tonight. The Nationals bats have been red hot to start the season, while the pitching staff has been hot garbage. Hopefully the Nats arms can put up more zeroes tonight. With a […]
The West Coast trips have been notorious for tripping up their Eastern time zone counterparts in all sports in the newly expanded ACC, but so far, so good for the Clemson Tigers, who just completed the road trip with a much-needed series win over fellow conference foe Stanford, followed by a Monday night victory over […]
This week, Gabe, Scott, and I were joined by new site writer Matt Smith to answer fan questions! Thank you to Old Jake and Grammer for their submissions. We discussed at length Masyn Winn hitting in the 4 spot, Pedro Pages Vs Jimmy Crooks, Dustin May, and more! Next week, we will be joined by […]
After a disappointing 3-2 Colorado Avalanche loss happened on Sunday in Denver against the Blues, the teams head east to complete the home-and-home in St. Louis. Colorado will once again have the opportunity to clinch the top seed in the West while St. Louis desperately needs a win to keep their playoff hopes alive. Colorado […]
How about this Washington Nationals offense folks! Despite some bullpen shenanigans, the Nats snapped their five game losing streak with a comeback win against the Cardinals. The Nats started the game well and ended it well. In the end, that was enough to give them a 9-6 win. James Wood also looks to be getting […]
Andre Pallante started the game wild, but was able to bring the game under control giving the St. Louis Cardinals a chance to win. It looked like they would win with clutch home runs from Ramón Urías and Jordan Walker, but the Cardinals bullpen blew it in the late innings as the Nationals came from […]
Craig Button joined That's Hockey to discuss.
The Nats pitching staff got absolutely clobbered this weekend against the Dodgers. Once upon a time, the Nats had a 3-1 record, but now after losing five straight, they are 3-6. However, they are finally facing a team that is not expected to be super competitive this year. This matchup with the Cardinals will be […]
In late November, the Red Sox made their first of two significant offseason trades with the Cardinals, acquiring veteran starter Sonny Gray and cash considerations for right-hander Richard Fitts, left-handed pitching prospect Brandon Clarke, and a player to be named later or cash considerations. On Monday, Boston completed the deal by sending minor league righty … Continue reading "Who did Red Sox send to Cardinals to complete Sonny Gray trade?"
I hope everyone had an enjoyable Easter long weekend…I certainly am happy that I used a few holiday days to stretch it to a full 7 days without doing my day job. Moving on to look at the Western Conference’s wildcard race before action gets underway on Monday. The Winnipeg Jets are currently 3 points behind the Nashville Predators & Los Angeles Kings, who are tied for the 8th and final spot. The San Jose Sharks are only 2 points back of those clubs and 1 up on the Jets, while the St. Loui...

Everything was going the Nationals’ way for most of yesterday’s game, as they had a 6-1 lead entering the 6th inning thanks to a 2-run Luis Garcia Jr. home run, a Keibert Ruiz single which ricocheted off the first base bag, allowing CJ Abrams to score, and a 3-run laser home run off the bat […]
I TOLD you March is problematic So since we last left the Nats they... became the Nats we expected. Joey Weimer is not a secret superstar. The pitching is not just fine. They actually didn't do a bad job hitting against LA but it wasn't enough. The good news is they are done with perennial playoff teams for a series. The bad news is the next week isn't super easy - at least if you believe the early season results. St. Louis looks to be an average team, while Milwu...
The Detroit Tigers were unable to complete the sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals at home on Sunday night, falling 5-3 to end their first homestand of the 2026 campaign.

As most of you know, I was lucky enough to be invited to attend Winter Warmup as a reporter. Last year, I used that experience to write several season previews. Due to the late start of the top 20 prospect series (caused by waiting for Brendan Donovan to be traded), my Winter Warmup stories have […]
The Minnesota Wild are in their win-now window and could look to make more big moves during the offseason because of it. The biggest roster need that they should be looking to address during the summer is a top-six center. Because of this, let's take a look at three centers who the Wild should make a push for during the offseason. Robert Thomas, St. Louis Blues With the Wild in need of a star center in their top six, it would not be shocking if they kicked tires on Thomas this summ...
With the St. Louis Blues still working to earn a wild card position in this year’s playoffs, and the Avalanche on the cusp of a Central Division title, there was plenty to play for, and Ball Arena was the scene on Easter Sunday evening. Colorado comes in on the second of a back-to-back, having beaten […]
