Latest blog entries from St. Louis teams across every league
It appears that the St. Louis Cardinals are going to be in a position this offseason to trade one of their best players and cash in on his value. Cardinals All-Star 2nd baseman/Outfielder Brendan Donovan is generating “massive” interest across the league from rival teams, according to reports. While personally, this bums me out to […]
The Islanders bounced back from a weaker home return performance against the Blues to pull out a shootout win in the double-shutout meeting with the Kraken, but hanging in the background is injury news to two significant players. Alex Romanov was not having a good season thus far, but the 5-6-month prognosis removes any chance […]
The Rangers come out on top of another low event outing for their second win of the season on home ice.
Many were expecting based on recent reports that Yohel Pozo would return to the St. Louis Cardinals organization for 2026, but not many would have guessed it would be for a major league contract which is what the club just announced. MLB Trade Rumors is reporting that Yohel Pozo’s contract is a split-deal which will […]

Here is some of the latest chatter regarding the Houston Astros and the St. Louis Cardinals I have confirmed these discussions with another source close to the Cardinals organization as well. These discussions match up to conversations I have had on AREA45 on Sportsradio 610 regarding the Astros interest in Brendan Donovan and Sonny Gray, […]
In a surprise to some, the Cardinals added 28-year-old Bryan Torres to the 40 man roster on November 6th. This predated the 40-man deadline by a couple weeks, because unlike Cooper Hjerpe, Leonardo Bernal, and company, Torres had spent seven seasons in the minors, and thus would have qualified for free agency. They added him […]
Last week was an eventful one for MLB and the St. Louis Cardinals as the 40-man roster protection deadline passed as well as the non-tender deadline. The Cardinals added 4 players and subtracted 5 leaving their 40-man count total at 37. Jake, Gabe, and Scott all sat down to discuss the last week of decisions […]

Coming off of a big win over the Blues on Thursday, a game which got the Flyers going again after a four-day layoff, they were back in action last night with a much more challenging task ahead of them — taking down a much tougher (at least as far as place in the standings is concerned) divisional opponent as the Devils came to town. This was another game which could have gone sideways quickly on the Flyers, as they again gave up an early goal, but instead of getting down, they managed not just...
The St. Louis Blues are a bottom-5 team in the NHL, and it will take quite a bit for them to turn things around. They are without true superstars and have goaltending that has been questionable for years. Some things are going to change this season, so some untouchables and players they don't want to trade have been reported or rumored. Frank Seravalli said, "There's a few untouchables, maybe three. I'd say that includes (Jake) Neighbours, (Dylan) Holloway, and probably I'd guess...(Colton) Pa...
The next full season projection for next year was recently released as FanGraphs published the Steamer projections for the 2026 season. The season is expected to be full of growing pains as Chaim Bloom begins the first year of a rebuild of unknown length. While there is plenty of time for the 26-man roster to […]
The Islanders came home from their rousing 6-1 road trip to start a seven-game homestand but could not keep their groove going in a 2-1 loss to the St. Louis Blues. It wasn’t an awful game, just a frustrating one against an opponent that has really struggled but has been inching its way back to […]
The St. Louis Blues and Alex Texier are headed for a divorce, as it's been announced the team will be terminating the forward's contract. Texier was put on the trade block, but the Blues weren't satisfied with any of the offers, waivers was next, nobody claimed him, so now GM Doug Armstrong and Texier's agent have agreed to terminate the deal. The 26-year-old winger was signed for $2.1 million AAV this season, and was a pending restricted free agent. He'll now be able to sign wherever he...
This is an early photo of Cubs Hall of Fame outfielder Billy Williams, and with the scoreboard matchups here it was pretty easy to sleuth this one. This was taken at the original Busch Stadium, formerly called Sportsman’s Park, home of the Cardinals from 1909 to 1966, when they moved into the second Busch Stadium […]
There’s a sense that the St. Louis Cardinals have a special player in JJ Wetherholt. There’s no debating his talent, but can anyone possibly live up to the hype that is building around him? I found an all-star comp that provides an encouraging look at what the Cardinals can expect. When the St. Louis Cardinals […]
For those who went into this Islanders transitional season with low or at least cautiously tempered expectations, the last eight games have been startling, confusing and pretty damn fun. I say eight games, because the 6-1 road trip, which started with some “not great but pulled it off” wins and steamrolled into some “that was […]
The St. Louis Cardinals non-tendered 4 players today including pitcher John King and catcher Yohel Pozo reducing their 40-player roster to 37. John King ended 2025 with a 2-1 record, a 4.66 ERA over just over 48 games appearing in 51 games with a 1.63 WHIP. Yohel Pozo had a .231 batting average for the […]
For the first time in four days, since the close of their back-to-back last weekend on the road, the Flyers were back in action last night, looking to pull off a sweep of the season series with the Blues and quickly begin to gain back some of the ground that they lost in the standings while they were sitting with their long layoff. It was going to be a bit of an uphill battle — four days, even with practice time mixed in, is a lot of days to be off collectively — but the Flyers responded prett...
*Oh wow, the Flyers went to overtime against the Blues last night. That’s wild. Who could have predicted? Anyway who cares, they won! Recap ! *Last night’s game was Hockey Fights Cancer night at the XBox and the Flyers organization made it a really special night for several fans and one much-loved member of the Flyers family. [ Inquirer ] *As was hinted at by the lines at practice earlier this week, Rick Tocchet did a little line mixing last night. And if we’re going to be changing t...
