Latest blog entries from St. Louis teams across every league
After Friday evening’s scheduled game between the St. Louis Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds was rained out at Great American Ball Park, the two clubs will kick off a doubleheader there on Saturday. The first game will commence at 1:10 PM ET. Chris Paddack will make his second start since being picked up by the Reds, […]
Keep an eye on the Edmonton Oilers and St. Louis Blues this summer. There's been plenty of speculation the last 12 months over Jordan Kyrou's future in St. Louis, and while trade talks fizzled out before March's deadline, there's a very good chance that the Oilers circle back with a big trade offer around next month's NHL Draft in Buffalo. Kyrou, 28, is signed through the 2031 season at $8.1 million AAV, and holds a no-trade clause on his contract. There's been some reports he denied a move to...
The St. Louis Cardinals were clear that this season would be a constant desire to compete, but the priorities would be player development and the future. The only thing that is clear right now about Victor Scott II’s development is that what he’s doing to make adjustments is not working against Major League pitching. Is […]
The St. Louis Cardinals weekend series versus the Cincinnati Reds will have to wait until Saturday as the team just announced that Friday night’s game has been postponed due to weather. Saturday will now see a double-header (weather permitting, of course) with the first game being at 12:10pm central time and the night game scheduled […]
Before we get to the Astros, a note: The Cubs moved half a game ahead of the Cardinals into second place in the NL Central when St. Louis lost to Pittsburgh on Thursday. The Astros started the year 6-3, but since then have gone 14-28. Only the Angels (13-28) are worse over that span. So […]
Presenting updated rankings of the top MLB rookies led by a Cardinals infielder on pace for a 20-20 season. The post 2026 MLB Rookie Of The Year: Top 20 Rookies To Watch (May 22) appeared first on College Baseball, MLB Draft, Prospects - Baseball America .
On this day, 24 years ago, Jordan Walker was born. Happy Birthday! Young by baseball standards, it feels like we’ve been waiting on him FOREVER! Authors Note: Some of you will fret about the VEB curse, rightfully so. I did a breakdown on Riley O’Brien the day before he blew a save in West Sacramento […]
The Edmonton Oilers have a critical offseason, as they face, effectively, one more year to show Connor McDavid that they can put a Cup winner around him. Next summer, he'd be heading into his pending UFA year, and that could be the end of the line for him in Edmonton if they haven't made huge strides. To that end, insider Jeff Marek joined Daily Faceoff Live to discuss some of the moves that the Oilers should look to make this summer. And he says Jordan Kyrou of the St. Louis Blues shoul...
Game Summary The Pirates re-asserted themselves today to take the game and series from St. Louis, somewhat returning the favor from the Cardinals recent visit to Pittsburgh. The Pirates took no quarter, outscoring the Cardinals 13-2 in the final two games of the set. Dustin May and Braxton Ashcroft lead out in an early pitcher’s […]
Pittsburgh Pirates vs. St. Louis Cardinals, May 21, 2026, 1:15 p.m. ET Location: Busch Stadium, St. Louis, MO Broadcast: KDKA AM/FM, Sportsnet-PIT Pitching Matchup: Braxton Ashcraft (2-2, 3.09 ERA) vs. Dustin May (3-4, 4.81 ERA) The Pittsburgh Pirates are on the road today against the St. Louis Cardinals looking to grab a win. Please remember […]
On Monday, I looked at how the pitchers in the upper minors were doing and honestly from a statistical standpoint, it wasn’t great. Mind you, it’s early in the season, and we know pitchers work on things at the expense of the best way they currently know how to get hitters out, and the run […]
The Pittsburgh Pirates got a much-need 7-0 win last night over the St.Louis Cardinals. Carmen Mlodzinski pitched a stellar five innings, the bullpen got it done for a change, and Konnor Griffin went 4-for-5 at the plate with 3 runs scored on the evening. That stat line made Griffin the second-youngest player to have 4 […]
Michael McGreevy’s command was not sharp Wednesday night against Pittsburgh, but he toughed his way through 5 innings before turning the game over to the bullpen which is where the game eventually fell apart. That combined with the St. Louis Cardinals offense finding it difficult to get runs across the plate made for an uphill […]
Pittsburgh Pirates vs. St. Louis Cardinals, May 20, 2026, 7:45 p.m. ET Location: Busch Stadium, St. Louis, MO Broadcast: KDKA AM/FM, Sportsnet-PIT Pitching Matchup: Carmen Mlodzinski (3-3, 4.40 ERA) vs. Michael McGreevy (3-2, 2.10 ERA) The Pittsburgh Pirates are on the road today against the St. Louis Cardinals looking to grab a win. Please remember […]
It’s time for the St. Louis Cardinals to call up Jimmy Crooks. Ok, so I don’t quite feel it to an ultimatum level like the first sentence reads. Crooks isn’t the Strait of Hormuz, he’s a flawed catcher for a franchise in the middle of a stated “long-term” year. However, I do think there’s a […]
On Tuesday night, the Pittsburgh Pirates fell to the St.Louis Cardinals 9-6 in 10 innings. That was the ninth extra inning game of the season for the Pirates, which is second in the league right behind the New York Mets, who have 10. The Bucs now have a record of 3-6 in extra inning games. […]
We have seen so many heroic, ridiculously entertaining *but also mortifying Wins this season that it feels like one of those October teams that find ways to win… but in the regular season. Their record in extra innings is 6-1 and they are good in 1 run games. The offense is good at late-inning dramatics, […]
Matthew Liberatore had another strong start, but another not strong ending as he pitched 4 solid innings, but he would not finish the 5th inning as the game got away from him. Fortunately, the Cardinals offense lead by JJ Wetherholt, Nolan Gorman, Alec Burleson and eventually Ivan Herrera picked him up beating the Pittsburgh Pirates […]
The St. Louis Cardinals enjoyed a badly-needed day off Monday, but return to Busch Stadium Tuesday night for a NL Central battle with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Matthew Liberatore gets the start for the Cardinals while the Pirates will depend on Mitch Keller. First pitch scheduled for 6:45pm central time. Here’s the lineup for the Cardinals […]
Pittsburgh Pirates vs. St. Louis Cardinals, May 19, 2026, 7:45 p.m. ET Location: Busch Stadium, St. Louis, MO Broadcast: KDKA AM/FM, Sportsnet-PIT Pitching Matchup: Mitch Keller (4-2, 3.59 ERA) vs. Matthew Liberatore (2-2, 4.40 ERA) The Pittsburgh Pirates are on the road today against the St. Louis Cardinals looking to grab a win.

The Chicago Cubs have been slipping lately, losing seven of their last nine games. They now hold only a half-game lead on the Milwaukee Brewers and just one game on the St. Louis Cardinals in the NL Central Division going into Tuesday's play. The starting pitching woes have started to have an effect, as they've surrendered 26 runs in their last three games, going into Tuesday's play. The Cubs are without several upper-end of the rotation arms, and will need to address that. Per Bob...
It’s time to change the username for the Pirates’ struggles against left-handed pitching. The password? Jhostynxon Garcia playing in the Pirates outfield. Pittsburgh promoted the right-handed slugger to join the major league club on Tuesday prior to the first of a three-game series against the St. Louis Cardinals. The team optioned infielder/outfielder Nick Yorke following […]
The Cardinals are off to a 9-5 start in the month of May, continuing their established early-season surprise. It certainly doesn’t appear as though this team is going to let this season go by without a fight, and they’ve been feeding off of the “Tarps Off” trailblazers of the Stephen F Austin Baseball club, who […]
I am a lifelong St. Louis Cardinals fan (now in my sixth decade, thank you very much), but I’m also a baseball fan. Thanks to the massive overhaul that President of Baseball Operations Chaim Bloom successfully kicked off during the offseason, there are many former St. Louis Cardinals on new teams and several of them […]
We welcome back 101 ESPN radio personality and Host of “BK & Ferrario,” Brandon Kiley! BK also hosts the Cardinals podcast “The Redbird Report” with fellow 101 ESPN personality Tanner Hendrickson. This week, Gabe and I dive into all sorts of Cardinals-related topics: the “Tarps off” movement, early-season performances, Roster moves/decisions, and, of course, some […]
