Latest news and updates about the Cardinals
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 […]
The St. Louis Cardinals could get right back in the playoff chase this weekend with a sweep of the Colorado Rockies after they took a series win over the Los Angeles Dodgers. If not, their season is likely over.
The St. Louis Cardinals traded Tommy Edman for Erick Fedde and Tommy Pham at the 2024 trade deadline, but Miguel Vargas became the star of that trade, and would fill their third base void had they acquired him. This is a huge what if.
The Cardinals have hovered around the .500 mark coming into September the past three seasons, but this year has a positive feeling for the future.
For the first eight innings of Thursday’s contest against the St. Louis Cardinals, the absence of Shohei Ohtani in the starting lineup was emphatically felt. Ohtani had went 0-4 with four strikeouts during Wednesday’s 8-6 extra-inning loss to St. Louis, and the Dodgers decided to give him the night off. Although the offense floundered throughout […]
St. Louis Cardinals' starter Hunter Dobbins will miss the entire 2027 season after elbow surgery. Between prospects Cooper Hjerpe, Jurrangelo Cijntje, and Tekoah Roby, the Cardinals have options for next year. Or, they could make another signing.
When I learned late last year that the Cardinals intended to make Kyle Leahy a starter, my first impression was….hmmm. I sifted some data on his past as an MiLB starter and was profoundly unimpressed. His starting history, last at AA, was quite similar to many young pitchers who never see a major league mound. […]
The Los Angeles Dodgers cut it close on Thursday night in the final game of a three-game set against the St. Louis Cardinals, looking to avoid a sweep at home against a team that’s looking to stay in the postseason hunt. With Shohei Ohtani getting a rest day amid growing injury concerns, the Dodgers offense […] The post Dodgers’ Teoscar Hernandez walks off Cardinals with clutch 9th-inning line drive appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The Dodgers stared in the eyes of a third straight defeat, but a walk-off double by Teoscar Hernández lifted the Dodgers to a 3-2 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday. The Cardinals were the first to strike against Tarik Skubal, as after St. Louis put the first two men on with a pair […]
The St. Louis Cardinals were not intimidated to be facing off with Tarik Skubal and the Dodgers. They came out of the gate swinging – literally – and Quinn Mathews did his part to give the Cardinals a fighting chance Thursday night in Los Angeles. They came so close to sweeping the Dodgers, but the […]
A tragedy unfolded near Dodger Stadium as the Los Angeles Dodgers hosted the St. Louis Cardinals for a three-game series. As the Cardinals secured the series on Wednesday, the LAPD discovered the corpse of a man hanging only a few hundred metres away from the stadium. On Wednesday, the first pitch of the game was […] The post Man’s Dead Body Tragically Found Hanging Near Dodger Stadium During Game appeared first on EssentiallySports .

First pitch scheduled for 9:10pm central time at Dodger Stadium and the game broadcast will be […]
Taking into account what happened in the first two games of this series against the Cardinals, carrying a certain pessimism into the final game of this series would be reasonable. Depending on the outcome of this matchup, this could qualify as the most frustrating series of the year—once being blown out and a second time […]
Since the Colorado Rockies are enjoying a much-needed day off before welcoming the St. Louis Cardinals to Coors Field on Friday, I figured it could be a good opportunity to pay some attention to the farm system with a game discussion thread, as all four Rockies affiliates are at home this week. We will update […]
As there has been growing concern about Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani and whether or not he’ll be making his return to the mound this season, the latest comments from manager Dave Roberts provide major insight into the team’s thinking. With the Dodgers losing to the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday in 10 innings, […] The post Dave Roberts’ 3-word response on Dodgers’ Shohei Ohtani not pitching again this season appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The St. Louis Cardinals do not have their long-term center fielder on their active roster. While a prospect like Josiah Ragsdale, Tai Peete, Won-Bin Cho, or Trevor Condon could become that, they may look outside for a trade or free-agent signing as well.
Shohei Ohtani's availability is in question after he struck out four times while batting Thursday night against the St. Louis Cardinals, according to Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts.
Shohei Ohtani’s recent struggles have now forced the Los Angeles Dodgers to question whether allowing him to play through his physical issues is really helping the team. After the Dodgers suffered another loss to the St. Louis Cardinals and dropped the series at home, Dave Roberts admitted that the superstar didn’t look like himself at […] The post “Really Not Helping Anyone”: Dodgers’ Manager Drops Bold Take On Shohei Ohtani’s Injury Concerns After Yet Another Loss to Cardinals appeared fir...
Yes, it’s that time. Last week saw the end of the Dominican Summer League season. In fact the Cardinals’ affiliate ended earlier than that, because they did not make the playoffs. The Florida Complex League ended well before that: though unofficial games have been played since then, games with actual recorded stats I can find […]
The St. Louis Cardinals have a new enemy in the Stan Kroenke-owned Los Angeles Angels, who also have a fresh general manager in John Mozeliak. The draft-and-develop Cardinals will now attempt to outperform the moneybags Angels in terms of a title.

It looked like the Los Angeles Dodgers were going to run away with the game on Wednesday against the St. Louis Cardinals after Freddie Freeman hit a three-run shot to put them up in the first inning, But as the old adage goes, it’s not about how you start, it’s how you finish. The Dodgers […] The post Dodgers still winless in Cardinals series after unfortunate 10th inning appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Since I am not a St. Louis Cardinals coach, I can’t say for sure that I know what the plan was for Wednesday night’s game against the Dodgers, but I’m fairly certain walking 4 batters in the first 2 innings wasn’t it. Brycen Mautz had a less-than-ideal start for the Cardinals while Yoshinobu Yamamoto was […]
For two months, Freddie Freeman was practically mute at the plate, at least when it came to home runs. All that changed on Wednesday night as the Los Angeles Dodgers faced the St. Louis Cardinals at home. In the bottom of the 1st inning, Freeman blasted one out to left-center field with two runners on.
