Bernie takes a look at how the Cardinals stack up to the rest of the competition in the NL Central. Bernie points out how the Brewers still are the top challenger, but the Cubs are not going to be a doormat this season. Bernie also lauds the Brewers for being able to get William Contreras on the cheap while the Cardinals had to open up the wallet for Willson. He then explains how the only way to get Bill DeWitt, Jr. to make changes is for him to feel the impact in the wallet as he points out how Mike Matheny's ouster was a direct result of dwindling fan support.

   Royals GM JJ Piccolo has fired manager Mike Matheny and pitching coach Cal Eldred in what can only be described as one of the strangest "house cleanings" in Royals history.  It's not that we don't like Piccolo, but how can an owner hate the direction of the team but give more power to his GM?    In other sports, the MLB playoffs are set and should be better than ever this year with a new format.  Also, Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill opens up about how much money he's saving playing in Florida instead of New York where the Jets were trying to lure him.    The candidates for governor had their second and final debate and Derek Schmidt attacked Lockdown Laura Kelly relentlessly telling her she "failed" Kansas school kids during Covid 19 and asked her if we were all better under Biden.  Her answer to that question was all you need to know about her.    Ted Cruz and Lyndsay Graham sent a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas informing him that if he doesn't start enforcing our laws at the border, the Republicans will impeach him after they take over.   Kamala Harris was in a fender bender and a golf team in Texas had their practice cancelled when they arrived at the course and saw naked women.

For non playoff-bound teams like the Royals, the season ends on Wednesday. They'll get a jump on their team's big decisions, and for the Royals it starts with manager Mike Matheny. Will he be back next season or might he be fired? Already, six managers who started the season have either been replaced or have announced their departures. Two of them, the Philadelphia Phillies and Toronto Blue Jays, are in the playoffs. Matheny will have completed three seasons with the Royals without a playoff run, and the person who hired him, Dayton Moore, is no longer with the club. On today's SportsBeat KC, beat writer Lynn Worthy and columnist Vahe Gregorian break down the future of Matheny and starting pitcher Zack Grienke, who appeared in his final game of the season on Monday and finished with a solid 3.68 ERA.

Oh, those base on balls. The line originated from Frankie Frisch, then manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates as he watched his pitcher pile up walks. Frisch later repeated it often as a broadcaster with the New York Giants. Royals manager Mike Matheny can relate. The Royals issued nine walks in their series opening loss at the San Francisco Giants on Monday, and bases on balls have been a problem all year for Royals starters and relievers. On today's SportsBeat KC podcast, Star columnists Vahe Gregorian and Sam McDowell discuss how this problem has contributed to the Royals' owning baseball's worst record. On the positive side, the Royals have been taking better approaches at the plate and hitting numbers have improved. It coincides with the elevation of Alec Zumwalt as the team's hitting coach.

   The Royals win two of three this weekend over Colorado including their "best win of the year" according to Mike Matheny.  But Royals fans are mostly talking about whether a new downtown ballpark is a good idea.  We break down the sight inside the east loop and if voters even remotely have the stomach to hand over their money to a sports team in America today.    Kurt Busch gets his first win at Kansas Speedway but his 34th overall in a great career that is mostly overshadowed by his brother Kyle.  This was a flawless race for Kurt and I'll tell you why another driver wanted Kurt to win more than himself.    We've had three really high profile mass shootings in the past three weeks by men that couldn't be more different.  White, black, Asian... doesn't matter.  They all have one thing in common that never makes the headline.    And Anthony Fauci says he  has a retirement plan and I  think  he should be fired for saying it.  Seriously.
