Tom Ackerman joins the show to discuss the Mizzou Tigers' ups and downs, including a tough loss to top teams and a dominant win against Oklahoma. The SEC is stacked, with teams like Alabama and Auburn leading the charge, while sneaky underdogs like George Mason make waves. Plus, Ackerman gives his take on Nolan Arenado's future with the Cardinals, the recent shake-up in MLB, and Jim Edmonds' unexpected comments about his departure from broadcasting. From March Madness to the MLB offseason, it's all covered with Tom's signature insight and humor. #MizzouBasketball #SECHoops #MarchMadness #MLB #NolanArenado #CardinalsTalk #JimEdmonds #TomAckerman #CollegeBasketball

Is Alex Bregman worth signing even in the short term? Would it even make sense if the Cubs signed him and traded Nico Hoerner to save a few bucks? Who was a bigger prick, Jim Edmonds, Curt Schilling or Troy Glaus? The answer of course is Trevor Bauer. Does Shohei count as a pitcher on the Dodgers' roster? Why would anybody trade for Nolan Arenado and not have him play third? Does Justin Turner have anything left...and we don't only mean hair. Does Jed really think he can't talk about free agents? Why did the Cardinals fall apart and why is it so fun to watch? David Brown is here to answer all these questions, hear the best Charles Barkley story and more.

Every week, two of the Best Fans in Baseball (TM) bring you all the news and analysis you need about the St. Louis Cardinals.  The quiet winter is starting to come to an end and it can't come quickly enough for Daniel (@C70) and David (@iPopEditor).  They talk about what hasn't happened, how the roster could change during the year, Nolan Arenado, and Jim Edmonds's thoughts about the club.  Plus it's the only Cardinal podcast you'll hear this week with a reference to the Book of Revelation!

What did we do to deserve this? In this Cards-heavy episode of the Team of Rivals Podcast, Ron, Elliott, and Pete are joined by special guests Holy Elle and Dan Buffa for a deep dive into the current state of St. Louis Cardinals baseball. The conversation kicks off with Ron expressing his frustrations about the team's stagnant offseason, drawing parallels to the dark days of the early '90s. The group debates the implications of the Cardinals' roster decisions, particularly focusing on the future of former stars like Nolan Arenado and Paul Goldschmidt. The discussion shifts as they analyze the potential impact of new players and the importance of allowing young talent like Mason Wynn and Jordan Walker to shine without being yanked back and forth between the majors and minors. The group shares their hopes and concerns about the upcoming season, exploring whether the team is truly committed to a rebuild or merely treading water. The conversation takes a humorous turn, with the group discussing about Jim Edmonds' recent interview and critique of his broadcasting style. We wrap up with "Ron's Soccer Minute," as he shares his excitement for the upcoming MLS season and City's home opener. Catch up with Elle at www.holyelle.com. Read Dan's latest at doseofbuffa.com.
