A St. Louis Cardinals Fan Community
The St. Louis Cardinals continue their weekend in Minneapolis as it’s game 2 versus the Minnesota Twins Saturday. Matthew Liberatore will make the start for the Cardinals while LHP Connor Prielipp will be on the mound for the Twins. First pitch is scheduled for 1:10pm central time at Target Field and the broadcast will be […]
Last week, I did my best to quantify how the Cardinals’ minor league pitching talent was developing so far this year. When looking at both team level statistics and individual breakouts, I concluded that 2026 has been a net positive for the pitching pipeline. Today, I want to do the same review for the Cardinals’ […]
Friday night’s game in Minnesota was a turning point of sorts for the St. Louis Cardinals after several roster moves one of which was the debut of Blaze Jordan. He contributed along with a bomb from Alec Burleson, but the St. Louis Cardinals bullpen would blow a lead late as the Minnesota Twins beat the […]
After taking 2 out of 3 from the New York Mets, the St. Louis Cardinals travel to Minnesota to take on the Twins. Friday night, it’s Kyle Leahy on the mound for the Cardinals as he’ll do battle with Joe Ryan, the starter for the Twins. First pitch is scheduled for 7:10pm central time at […]
Since most of the conversation lately seem to have zigged towards the Nolan Gorman question and somewhat the Riley O’Brien question, I decided to zag in another direction. My curiosity? Of the minor leagues prospects we’ve been watching, who has the most interesting pitch shape metrics (ie. the under the hood stuff)? We seem to […]
Game Summary The Mets take a see-saw game as Juan Soto doubles and scores a run to tie the game and homers to bring in the winning run as the Mets with 5-4. Hunter Dobbins gave up 2 homerun and 3 runs in the first inning for a rough start. The Cardinals tagged 3 home […]
The St. Louis Cardinals will continue their joyride in New York Wednesday afternoon as Hunter Dobbins will get the start for the Redbirds. The New York Mets will hope Christian Scott can pull off a miracle as he will take the mound for the metros. First pitch is scheduled for 12:10pm central time and the […]
On Monday, I covered the position player depth. My bad on not including Thomas Saggese at shortstop. Even though I think I’m lower on his defense there than most, the Cardinals do clearly consider him SS depth, so he should have been listed. Today, I want to address the pitching depth. I’ll take a different […]
The St. Louis Cardinals are really enjoying their tour of New York. The Redbird bats were ready for action and Andre Pallante was pretty sharp as the Cardinals easily beat the Mets for their 6th straight victory. The St. Louis Cardinals did not hesitate to let the New York Mets know they would be scoring […]
The St. Louis Cardinals will try to win the series against the New York Mets Wednesday night as Andre Pallante takes the mound for St. Louis. The Mets will ask Christian Scott to try and stop the Cardinals. Good luck with that, Mr. Scott. You’ll need it. First pitch is set for 6:10pm central time […]
Today I am here to talk about the Saint Louis Cardinals and their statistical idiosyncracies, subtle characteristics, and peculiar statlines that could give us a better idea of who that player really is. The devil is in the details. The story is under that last rock unturned. You get the picture. Hitting DH/C: Ivan Herrera […]
Dustin May tossed a gem and he finally got the run support he deserves as the St. Louis Cardinals and their bats made a loud entrance into the Big Apple as they beat the New York Mets Tuesday night. I’m delighted to tell you that it will take awhile to explain how the Cardinals jumped […]
After a successful homestand against the Cincinnati Reds, the St. Louis Cardinals begin a road trip in New York Tuesday night taking on the Mets. The Cardinals starter will be Dustin May while the Mets are expected to start Freddy Peralta. First pitch scheduled for 6:10pm central time with the TV broadcast being handled by […]
The St. Louis Cardinals are set to be one of the big players at this year’s Amateur Draft. The Cardinals own 6 of the top 86 picks, including 13, 32, 50, 68, 72, and 86 overall. They also have amassed a war chest of 16,612,300, which is the 6th largest behind PIT (19.1 M), TBR […]
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. I think the St. Louis Cardinals have reached the point where they need to stop doing the same thing with Nolan Gorman while expecting something different than what we’ve seen for the past three seasons, but what should that thing be? If […]
Yes, I know, it was supposed to be a “reader mailbag” episode. Yes, I know, it’s my own fault for surveying the same post as the mailbag episode, but I think I received a much more valuable return from you guys on what you want or are hoping for from the podcast moving forward. Therefore, […]
I had been thinking of this idea prior to his article, but when ORSTLcardsfan looked at the hole in the development pipeline this past weekend, I realized I approach pitchers in the farm system differently than position players. With pitchers, it’s a famous saying, but that doesn’t make it not true: you can never have […]
With a couple of exceptions, Michael McGreevy gave the St. Louis Cardinals a good start Sunday. Fortunately, the St. Louis Cardinals woke up in time to complete the sweep of the Cincinnati Reds Sunday. My fear is that the narrative of this game would be all of the runners the Cardinals stranded on base Sunday. […]
The St. Louis Cardinals will wrap up a long homestand on Sunday against the Cincinnati Reds. Michael McGreevy is scheduled to make the start for the Cardinals while RHP Rhett Lowder will take the mound for the Reds. First pitch is scheduled for 1:15pm central time at Busch Stadium and the broadcast will be available […]
The St. Louis Cardinals and the fans at Busch Stadium welcomed Lars Nootbaar back into action this weekend as he made his season debut. I, personally, was more ready for his return than I expected this offseason, as I simply hoped for a healthy return and a quick trade out of St. Louis. As this […]
We zoomed through the first third of the season and now the St. Louis Cardinals have just 100 games to go in this rebuild season. Unlike most rebuilds, this one has been fun and honestly, maybe we are spoiled by being fans of the Cardinals. That was one of the topics of conversations on Cardinals […]
Forrest Gump once said that life is like a box of chocolates because you never know which kind you’re going to get. The same can be said for Matthew Liberatore this season. Will you get good Libby or bad Libby? Saturday, the Cardinals ended up with both versions, but it would be more late inning […]
The St. Louis Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds will play the second game of the weekend series Saturday afternoon at Busch Stadium. For the Cardinals, it’s Matthew Liberatore on the mound as he’ll take on Reds starter Nick Lodolo. First pitch is scheduled for 1:15pm and the TV broadcast will be available on Cardinals.tv. Still no […]
Chaim Bloom and the Cardinals front office have spent the last year feverishly adding as much pitching talent to the farm system as possible. As ORSTLcardsfan noted in his article yesterday, this has been a “re-stock the pitching pipeline” year. I think most of us were happy with the pitchers and types of pitchers brought […]
Kyle Leahy’s finish was better than his start and the St. Louis Cardinals bats were more than enough to overcome the Cincinnati Reds Friday night at Busch Stadium with an honorable mention going to the Reds bullpen for a big assist during the latter half of the game. Trying to explain what happened in both […]
