Tim makes a case for Jacob deGrom in the Hall of Fame, do you agree with it? Plus on the other end, we’ve got newbie Kade Anderson just brought up amid a playoff race for the Mariners. Mason Miller is insane still and the Phillies are hot! Jordan Walker leads our Quirkjians but little we know, he’s not the only one with quirky homer stats! Randy Arozarena said “I see you PCA, how about THIS?” We had no clue this could happen twice in a decade yet alone twice in a month! And On This Date, we got Bill Freehan, Ted Williams and Ernie Banks! And a little family love for a McKinley in the building! The Wheel of Kurkjian is in need of your help! Go to our website GreatGameOrWhat.com to submit your entries.

Joshua Baez made maybe the greatest MLB debuts of all time — three home runs, three different pitches, three different parts of the ballpark. Nate and Ben soak it in, then dig into a Cardinals team that's back above .500 and squarely in the wild card hunt: Jordan Walker solving the slider, Alec Burleson leading baseball in a brand-new defensive stat, and a rotation that keeps winning while defying every metric.Down on the farm, Rainiel Rodriguez is climbing toward the top of prospect boards. Plus Phillies and Orioles previews, a very strange batch of league news, and the return of an old friend.Have a question or comment for the show?

Cardinals radio voice John Rooney joins Chris and Amy with a recap of the first 3 games of the series, including last night's shutout victory. He comments on the progress that outfielder Jordan Walker has made this season, proposing that Walker may go on a power streak as the season concludes. The Cards are just 3 games out of the 3rd Wild Card spot in the National League.

We're bringing back Blockbuster, burying Columbia House and somehow ending up inside the St. Louis Cardinals draft room. Just another morning where The Rizzuto Show refuses to pick a lane.First, a guy learns how to sing a hit song completely backwards so it sounds right when reversed, which is an incredible amount of effort dedicated to something gloriously unnecessary. Then we discover Free Blockbusters — neighborhood boxes where people swap DVDs, Blu-rays and VHS tapes like Little Free Libraries for people who still remember rewinding things.That sends us straight into a funeral for Columbia House, the legendary “11 albums for a penny” operation that helped build Rizz's music collection and apparently taught an entire generation of children their first lesson in questionable financial decisions. Rizz remembers physically mailing them a penny, getting Guns N' Roses, Mötley Crüe, Def Leppard and Bon Jovi, then receiving bills while possessing the unbeatable legal defense of being approximately 11 years old.Plus, Crap on Celebrities delivers another pile of entertainment gossip and pop culture commentary before we bring in someone with actual credentials and briefly destroy the show's reputation.Cardinals assistant GM of scouting and acquisition and 2006 World Series champion Randy Flores joins the crew to talk Draft365: Scouting MLB's Future Stars and give us a fascinating look at how the Cardinals identify, evaluate and draft future players.Randy breaks down the absurd odds of making Major League Baseball, what scouts see beyond analytics, why struggling can actually reveal something important about a prospect, and how the Cardinals' nationwide scouting operation works. We get into Jordan Walker, Joshua Baez, the pressure facing young athletes and why parents convinced they're raising the next MLB superstar might want to let the kid drive the dream.And with the 20-year reunion of the 2006 World Series champion Cardinals approaching, Randy looks back while also explaining why the organization's current farm system has him excited about what's coming next.So we've got Blockbuster nostalgia, Columbia House childhood crimes, weird internet talent, funny celebrity gossip and legitimate Cardinals baseball insight all crammed into one comedy podcast.Basically, we start with VHS tapes and end with MLB scouting.There was no plan.There rarely is.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Amazon Worker Calls Out Customers Who Keep Ordering This 1 Item—It's Really Annoying: ‘Stop Ordering This'Woman's Petty Response to $45 HOA Fines Has X Saying “Genius”Free Blockbusters are popping up to bring back physical mediaRemember 12 CDs for 1 cent?

Twenty years after helping the St. Louis Cardinals win the 2006 World Series, Randy Flores is back with The Rizzuto Show — except now he's sitting on the other side of baseball, helping find the players who could become the Cardinals' next generation of stars.The Cardinals assistant GM of scouting and acquisition joins this comedy podcast to talk about Draft365: Scouting MLB's Future Stars, a behind-the-scenes look at a side of professional baseball fans almost never get to see.And when we say behind the scenes, we mean it.Flores explains how roughly 23 Cardinals scouts spread across the country evaluate elite high school and college talent, how players make their way onto the organization's radar, and what happens when scouts, analysts, data engineers, performance specialists and actual human eyeballs all have to agree on which teenager might someday be standing at Busch Stadium.Turns out it's slightly more complicated than your uncle saying, “Kid's got a good swing.”Randy also explains just how absurdly difficult it is to reach Major League Baseball. The crew immediately starts Googling percentages, Rafe consults what basically becomes “Gronk AI,” and everyone arrives at the same scientific conclusion:Your odds aren't great.Even the players who get drafted were usually THE player where they came from — the best kid in their town, school or region — only to arrive in professional baseball and discover they're now surrounded by hundreds of other guys who were also the best kid everywhere they came from.Welcome to the world's most emotionally devastating All-Star team.Flores talks about seeing that firsthand after being drafted himself and walking into the Yankees system, where he realized his team was only one of several groups making cuts — inside just one organization. Multiply that by the rest of Major League Baseball and suddenly “making the show” sounds less like a career plan and more like surviving a very athletic Hunger Games.The conversation also dives into Cardinals prospects like Jordan Walker and Joshua Baez, including how the unusual COVID-era draft helped St. Louis feel confident about Walker and how adversity in the minor leagues helped prepare Baez for his eventual opportunity.And despite baseball becoming more obsessed with analytics, Randy explains why scouting still can't be reduced to numbers on a screen. Players leave home. They struggle. They get hurt. They fail for possibly the first time in their lives. Scouts aren't only evaluating what someone can do when everything is going right — they're trying to figure out what happens when baseball punches them directly in the mouth.That's where the human side still matters.For parents convinced they're currently raising the next MLB superstar, Flores also delivers some advice that may save everybody several thousand dollars and one deeply uncomfortable car ride home: if the kid is truly good enough, scouts will find them. Parents can help most by supporting the kid instead of turning every Little League game into Game 7 of the World Series.The pressure is already enormous. Kids now have rankings, social media clips and embarrassing moments that can follow them indefinitely. Randy's advice is refreshingly simple: home should still be the safe place.We also get into Randy's unusual road from an eight-year MLB career to graduate school, broadcasting, coaching, entrepreneurship and eventually a phone call from John Mozeliak asking whether he'd consider becoming a scouting director — to which Randy essentially responded, “Cool. What's a scouting director?”Career planning!Plus, Randy previews the 20-year reunion of the 2006 World Series champion Cardinals and explains what he hopes fans take away from Draft365: behind every prospect is an enormous group of people obsessively trying to keep the Cardinals' pipeline loaded with talent.By the end, Rafe wants to be scouted, Moon wants a job, Jon Lovitz's performance as a scout in A League of Their Own is finally evaluated by an actual professional, and somehow Marla Hooch helps bring the interview home.It's baseball insight, St. Louis Cardinals history and just enough nonsense to remind Randy he willingly walked into a comedy podcast.Twenty-five minutes later, we're all convinced we're getting drafted.We're not.But that's never stopped this comedy podcast before.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Grace Ybarra and Galen Clavio are back on CrimsonCast for a wide-ranging summer conversation that starts with Indiana football and ends somewhere near Erling Haaland, cowboy boots, and barbecue.They open with the six-month anniversary of Indiana football's national championship, the new IU football photo book, and how strange it still feels for Hoosier fans to live in this new reality. The biggest topic is Monshun Sales, the five-star Lawrence North wide receiver who committed to Indiana and gave Curt Cignetti another massive recruiting win. Grace and Galen discuss why Sales choosing IU feels different, what it means for Indianapolis-area recruiting, and why the program's culture and relationship-building continue to matter.From there, the show moves through ESPN banter, SEC Media Days complaining, Big Ten Media Days in Chicago, the upcoming live show at Joe's on Weed Street, Hoosiers in baseball, Kyle Schwarber, Jordan Walker, Chip Kelly's instantly memeable Northwestern construction look, and the beautiful absurdity of Chicago traffic.The final section turns to the World Cup: the tournament's massive U.S. impact, the comedown after six weeks of daily soccer, MLS trying to capture the momentum, the halftime show, grass vs. turf in NFL stadiums, future World Cups, and why Erling Haaland may have been the tournament's biggest personality winner.Book a table for the event at Joe's on Weed St!

The Cardinals have lost four in a row and each one hurt in a different way. They gave away a 7-0 lead to the Diamondbacks. Riley O'Brien hit a guy to bring in the winning run against the Angels. And underneath all of it, the offense has fallen off a cliff — 28th in baseball over the last 30 days, with Jordan Walker and the Furminator the only Cardinals hitting above average.Meanwhile the pitching staff has quietly been top ten over that same stretch. Development or luck? We dig in with the deadline coming up. Plus: John Mozeliak joins the ESPN booth and says absolutely nothing, a Reds and Cubs preview, Who Charted?, and the worst fishing story ever told on this show.Have a question or comment for the show?
