Podcast appearances and mentions of John Gant

Three players in big league history have more than one career home run but no other hits. Two were players that got only a cup of coffee or two in the big leagues; the third, believe it or not, was a pitcher. We have their stories. Plus - the Rafael Devers trade, reflecting on Sly Stone and Brian Wilson, and some 1989 baseball cards.Errata: Nolan Fontana was claimed off waivers by the Angels, not the Dodgers. Andy van Slyke won 5 Gold Glove Awards, not 3. Houston replaced Bill Virdon with Bob Lillis in 1982, not Hal Lanier. On June 28, 1997, David Wells wore Babe Ruth's cap, valued then at $35,000, for one inning during a pitching performance - the Yankees fined Wells $2,500. In September 1988, Dave Dravecky was diagnosed with a desmoid tumor in his left arm. He attempted a return in 1989. In his second appearance during a pitch in the fifth inning his humerus bone snapped. Doctors amputated his left arm in 1991 after discovering the tumor had returned.Episodes mentioned:Ep. 72 - Seeing the World Through Baseball w/ Cousin Wolf (Matt Halvorson).

Lucas goes in depth into the pitching matchups for the Tiger series, looking at what has changed for Johan Oviedo and why John Gant has cause for concern.

The St. Louis Cardinals were no-hit for 6.1 innings last night and shutout, losing 4-0 to the Atlanta Braves. John Gant was not terrible, but he got literally zero run support so it didn't really matter what he did. The Cardinals signed two pitchers yesterday, Wade LeBlanc to the majors and Brandickson to the minors. These are not the kind of moves the Cardinals need to be making right now.

Baseball rarely has just one hero, but Tyler O'Neill did his best Superman impression last night. He had two hits, a key stolen base and a remarkable game-ending (and gave-saving) catch. Dylan Carlson and Tommy Edman also added sparkling defensive gems in the sixth to help get the Cardinals out of a jam. John Gant needed every help from his defense he could get, but he delivered his best start when the Cardinals needed it the most.

The St. Louis Cardinals fell to the Los Angeles Dodgers yesterday by the final of 9-4. Chris Taylor put together an at-bat for the ages to sink St. Louis. The bullpen is showing signs of wear and tear, despite it's only June 1. Jack Flaherty leaving due to hurting himself at the plate, which is reason enough for Lucas to want the DH in the NL. This offense needs a boost, but they are clearly not even close to the caliber they need to be.

He struck out 10 in 7.2 innings, surrendering only one run on a Tyler O'Neill home run.

Any sweep is a good sweep, but a sweep against a division foe is always one to celebrate. The St. Louis Cardinals did just that by sweeping the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park over the weekend. A lot of things went well for the Redbirds, scoring 15 runs on 25 hits over the first two games and then Carlos Martinez dominating in game three. Tyler O'Neill looks like a new player, and John Gant is still good at baseball. The Cardinals come back home for a four-game set with the Mets, and Adam Wainwright gets the ball in game one in his first start back from the COVID IL.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

The St. Louis Cardinals are traveling to Pittsburgh for a three game series, their first of the year against the Pirates. Pittsburgh currently sits at 12-12, and Lucas thinks they are over performing. Not to take this series lightly, as JT Brubaker has had a solid campaign so far and he starts tonight for the Buccos. John Gant will oppose him, looking to continue his streak of 3 earned runs or less in each of his starts this season. With Flaherty tomorrow, Lucas thinks it's a W tomorrow, with an unknown starter going Sunday Listen for the full breakdown and the series predictions!Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

The St. Louis Cardinals have their first series win of 2021 with a 4-1 win over the Miami Marlins in game 2. It wasn't the prettiest, but a win is a win. Offensively, the Cardinals weren't able to muster anything against Sandy Alcantara until the 6th when nifty baserunning by Paul Goldschmidt and situational hitting by Yadier Molina gave the Cards the lead. Also, despite moans and groans from many, Matt Carpenter looked as good has he has in a LONG time. On the mound, John Gant gutted through 4 innings and the St. Louis bullpen was electric to slam the door.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Even though Max Scherzer faced the Cardinals for the third time this spring, St. Louis was able to escape with a 4-2 victory. However, Scherzer was still dominant, striking out 7 in 4 innings. It was after he left that Dylan Carlson, Nolan Gorman and Nolan Arenado all drove in runs to give the Cardinals a win. John Gant made a good bid for the starting rotation today and the rest of the bullpen was very good to secure the win.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

For the third time this ST, the St. Louis Cardinals have ended their game in a tie. While it's not "real" baseball yet, there are definitely some things to pay attention to. KK Kim has NOT been impressive in his 2 starts, while Adam Wainwright has impressed more than we was expected to. Tyler O'Neill seems to have found his stroke, if he can produce this lineup gets a jolt of power. Lucas also discusses Tommy Edman, the impressive pitching, John Gant and more on today's show!Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

After the 3 Spring Training games, the Cardinals are 1-0-2. What is there to be excited about/worried about? Be excited about the pitching of Thomas Parsons, John Gant, Daniel Ponce de Leon, Adam Wainwright and more! Be excited about Tommy Edman's fast start and Nolan Arenado's solid contact. Be *slightly* worried about rest of offense getting of to par or subpar starts and KK Kim's ugly outing yesterday. All that said, you also have to keep your head about you since it's only 3 games into spring.

Baseball is officially BACK!! Despite the St. Louis Cardinals and Washington Nationals ending their game in a tie, there is a lot to take away from game one. Jack Flaherty's underwhelming start, the excellence of John Gant and Alex Reyes, the reception Nolan Arenado received and the fact that the starting outfield went 3-6. Lucas gives his short thoughts on the game and then it's part one of the NL Central Roundtable! All 5 hosts of the NL Central teams got together to record a massive crossover.
