Podcasts about Fedde

After some of Brett Ballantini's idiotic, angry and/or questionable ramblings in our staff discussions, Malachi Hayes suggested a ... debate? ... of sorts, centered around the White Sox trade of Adrian Houser to the Tampa Bay Rays at the deadline last week. You don't have to listen to the podcast to determine who won the debate: If you are a "gut" fan, you might like my arguments, while if you like reasoned analysis and optimism, Malachi is your guy. (By the way, first round went to Hayes, as Houser had his worst start of the season to open his Rays career.) This was mostly Houser and related debate, but we did move on to other things: Shout-out to pandemic-era media, as multiple technical snafus found the two of us back on Zoom for the podcast! Some of the crux of Brett's biscuit with Houser comes from some raw (albeit small sample-size) stats: No pitcher of 11 games or fewer with the White Sox has ever done better than Houser's 3.0 WAR — and you have to get to 18 games before you find a better (short) season. Additionally, over 125 seasons of White Sox history there have been just 18 better 11-game stretches better than Houser's 2.10 ERA ... and just seven have come in the DH era, and two this century Malachi counters that such stats make it even more urgent/compelling to deal Houser now, without (much) regard to the return. While Brett largely rejects the logic, Malachi pointed out that this deadline runs along the lines of 2024's, where a similiar-ish trade was made in sending out Erick Fedde for Miguel Vargas At some point, do you start collecting quality players rather than continuing to build for the future? Whether Houser is one of those guys, or Fedde was, SOMEONE has to be a building block instead of a trade piece Through process of elimination Brett isolated Malachi's best-case competitive window opening for the White Sox to be 2027. Brett is more of the 2029 belief As time ran out on our free Zoom, Malachi and Brett discussed some of the brighter developments of 2025: Edgar Quero, Kyle Teel and Colson Montgomery Please support our White Sox writing and podcasts.   Learn more about your ad choices.

In this emergency episode, we dive into the St. Louis Cardinals' roster shake-up as veteran pitcher Erick Fedde is designated for assignment following a brutal sweep at the hands of the Colorado Rockies, the league's worst team. We break down Fedde's disappointing 2025 season, where his 3-10 record and 5.22 ERA in 20 starts—capped by a disastrous six-run outing in just three innings against the Rockies—forced the Cardinals' hand. With the team now cemented as sellers ahead of the July 31 trade deadline, we explore what this means for the franchise's future, John Mozeliak's legacy, and the potential trades that could reshape the roster.

Born of a small difference in philosophy on Twitter, Brenden Schaeffer and Josh Jacobs jumped into the podcast studio to debate whether the Cardinals should have traded Erick Fedde in the winter.Of course, this comes after a game in which Fedde gave up seven runs and did not get through the fourth inning, so it's going to be tougher for Brenden to defend his stance - the only reason the Cardinals got Fedde in the first place was to have him as a cost-controlled rotation arm in 2025.But Josh thinks John Mozeliak should have been more creative in establishing the rotation plans this year, which could have included a refresh for Fedde's slot while getting what you could for him via trade in the winter or spring.We debate and discuss that and plenty of other Cardinals topics on a special crossover of B-Schaeff Daily and Philosophical Differences (which may be making a comeback!).Follow this podcast feed for daily Cardinals coverage all year long!
