Podcast appearances and mentions of Nolan Arenado

Tom Ackerman is joined by Cardinals' President of Baseball Operations, John Mozeliak to break down the Cardinals' roster as the All-Star break approaches. They discuss injuries to Nolan Arenado and Lars Nootbaar, Ivan Herrera's return, and how the break could help with recovery. Mozeliak also talks draft strategy with the 5th overall pick, reflects on past successes like drafting Yadier Molina, and considers the idea of a six-man rotation featuring Sonny Gray and Erik Fedde.

In the second hour of Sports on a Sunday Morning, Tom Ackerman is joined by Lutz Pfannenstiel, John Mozeliak, and Bernie to discuss a range of sports topics. They delve into the St. Louis Cardinals' 5th overall pick in the 2025 MLB Draft, current player injuries including Nolan Arenado and Ivan Herrera, and potential trade deadline strategies. The conversation shifts to St. Louis City SC's upcoming match against the Portland Timbers at Energizer Park, the club's youth development initiatives, and the success of City 2. Highlights from Wimbledon include Carlos Alcaraz's performance in the final against Jannik Sinner. The hour concludes with a discussion on the recent changes in the Blues' broadcasting team, including John Kelly's departure.

Brenden Schaeffer discusses the St. Louis Cardinals losing to the Atlanta Braves on Friday night by a 6-5 score. Matthew Liberatore struggled out of the gate and never really recovered.The bullpen was good, though, with Riley O'Brien and Matt Svanson throwing up zeroes to keep the Cards in the game.The offense posted five runs in the early innings but were unable to get anything across the board thereafter.Nolan Arenado left the game early due to an injury on his right index finger, which is something he has dealt with on and off for a couple weeks at this point.Will the Cards decide to put him on the shelf to use the All-Star break to their advantage for his recovery timeline?

BT and Sal dissect the New York Yankees' perplexing tendency to strike out, arguing that their "all-or-nothing", launch-angle focused approach is hindering their offense despite having plenty of power. Sal champions the idea of acquiring a high-contact, defensive-minded third baseman like Nolan Arenado to balance the lineup, contrasting him with strikeout-prone options like Eugenio Suarez or even Anthony Volpe, who a scout suggests is trying to hit like Aaron Judge. They emphasize the importance of putting the ball in play, even if it's a groundout for an RBI, as opposed to the current lineup's frequent whiffs, which they believe limits run-scoring opportunities.

Here is our first in-depth preview of the St. Louis Cardinals' strategy as the 2025 MLB Trade Deadline approaches! With the Cardinals sitting in the thick of the NL Wild Card race, will they be buyers, sellers, or take a hybrid approach? We dive into the latest rumors, analyze key players like Ryan Helsley, Erick Fedde, and Nolan Arenado, and discuss whether John Mozeliak will bolster the roster or trade expiring contracts to build for the future. From potential targets like a right-handed bat or a starting pitcher to the possibility of moving veterans like Miles Mikolas or Phil Maton, we break down all the possibilities. Plus, we explore how the Cards' surprising season could shape their deadline decisions.

In this "Call of the Day," Eddie from Long Island passionately argues that the struggling Yankees could significantly improve their winning record, particularly in extra innings, if they simply embraced small ball and bunted more often with runners on base. He emphasizes this as a fundamental Little League principle and expresses extreme frustration with the team's current approach. Brendan Tierney and Sal Licata then debate Eddie's point, bringing up hypothetical lineup changes and the merits of potential trade targets like Ryan McMahon and Nolan Arenado, ultimately circling back to the Yankees' perceived aversion to bunting and its impact on their offensive strategy.

Tom Ackerman and John Mozeliak discuss the Cardinals' inconsistent season and recent 8-6 win over the Cubs. Key topics include offensive struggles with runners in scoring position, contributions from Yohel Pozo and Brendan Donovan, and pitching rotation challenges with Miles Mikolas and Jordan Hicks. Injury updates cover Nolan Arenado, Jordan Walker, and Ivan Herrera. Mozeliak also shares insights on trade deadline plans, bullpen management, player development, and postseason hopes.

Hour 2 begins with Lutz Pfannenstiel analyzing St. Louis CITY SC's tight 3-2 loss to Real Salt Lake, discussing defensive challenges, standout young players like Jaziel Orozco and Tyson Pearce, squad depth, and coaching transitions. Next, John Mozeliak joins to update on the Cardinals' inconsistent season, injury reports including Nolan Arenado and Ivan Herrera, pitching rotation struggles, bullpen management, and trade deadline strategy as the team pushes for postseason relevance. The hour wraps with Bernie Miklasz offering a critical take on the Cardinals' offensive struggles, pitching rotation concerns, bullpen usage, player development, and realistic expectations for the Wild Card race and playoff contention.

In this episode, we unpack the St. Louis Cardinals' brutal series sweep to the Pittsburgh Pirates, where they were shut out and left fans reeling. We dive into Erick Fedde's ongoing pitching struggles, including his recent 4.56 ERA and a rough outing where he surrendered seven earned runs, highlighting his issues with misbehaving fastballs and a high walk rate. We also discuss the impact of injuries, with Nolan Arenado battling a swollen right hand and Willson Contreras day-to-day after a pitch hit his hand, both affecting the lineup's output. Join us as we analyze key moments, explore the team's offensive woes against left-handed pitching, and debate what the Cardinals need to turn things around.

Post-Dispatch podcasts page: https://go.stltoday.com/0hfn43 Please consider subscribing: https://go.stltoday.com/9aigz5 After his barehanded play on a slow-rolling grounder ended Tuesday night's game against the Cubs with a stirring, 8-7 Cardinals victory, third baseman Nolan Arenado talked about how much it meant to play meaningful, tense, important games against an archrival. He said he woke up excited, and hadn't been this eager to get to the ballpark in almost two years. A day early, Cubs manager Craig Counsell said he wouldn't be the "hype man" for the series. The oldest rivalry in Major League Baseball between two teams that have not left their cities, Cubs-Cardinals was long defined by one team's brand as champion and the other as lovable losers, but that's so Y2K, man. Now the rivalry happens in cycles, and for the first time in several years the Cardinals and Cubs were snug in the standings when they played this past week at Busch Stadium. Does that give the rivalry renewed verve, or does the change in schedule make it just another division series?  Chicago Tribune baseball writer and Cubs beat writer Meghan Montemurro joins the Best Podcast in Baseball for a conversation at Busch Stadium (listen to that determined A/C) about the current state of the rivalry and if it has the same heat in Chicago that it experienced from the St. Louis side this past week. The pressure is on the Cardinals to chase down the Cubs, and the pressure on the Cubs, with only one guaranteed year of standout player Kyle Tucker, appears to be on winning and advancing in October now.  How should that shape their trade deadline decisions? How can they shape the Cardinals' trade deadline decisions? Cubs president Jed Hoyer is in the final year of his contract, and Cardinals president John Mozeliak is in the final year of his tenure leading the Cardinals' baseball operations. Change is coming, potentially to both teams, adding another twist to the rivalry. Plus, BPIB host Derrick Goold, asks Montemurro about his theory that maybe instead of the National League Central rivals spurring the Cubs to spend like a bigger market it will be their neighborhoods on the South Side as the White Sox welcome in a new investor. A split four-game series at Busch Stadium between the Cardinals and Cubs left nothing settled between the two teams, and the final game of the series (a 3-0 victory and second consecutive shutout by the Cubs) ended with both teams emptying their dugouts to almost confront each on the field. Tempers cooled quickly, but the stage is set for their next week within two weeks for Fourth of July at Wrigley Field. Will there be fireworks?

Cory and Eric Phillips discuss the St. Louis Cardinals defeating the Cincinnati Reds 6-5 in an 11-inning thriller on June 21, 2025, at Busch Stadium. The Reds led 5-2 going into the 8th, powered by Elly De La Cruz's two-run homer and Matt McLain's two doubles. However, Nolan Arenado's game-tying homer off Reds closer Emilio Pagan sparked a Cardinals comeback. In the 11th, Yohel Pozo's walk-off single scored Jordan Walker for the win. Cardinals pitchers held the Reds to 1-for-15 with runners in scoring position, while Phil Maton earned the win. The Reds' bullpen struggled late, with Chase Petty taking the loss.   Chatterbox Reds is your home for coverage all season long for the Cincinnati Reds with LIVE post game shows after EVERY game on YouTube, and NEW podcasts the morning after every game (including weekends)!

In this episode of Talking About Birds, the hosts recap a tough week for the Cardinals, who placed Jordan Walker on the IL and called up Ryan Vilade, while also signing Tyler Matzek to a minor league deal. The pitching staff continues to struggle—Pallante's arsenal lacks effectiveness, Leahy isn't generating strikeouts, and Mikolas's fastball ranks among the worst in MLB. Offensively, Nolan Arenado is slumping, raising questions about rest versus defensive value, while Masyn Winn and Alec Burleson help keep the team afloat.

Bernie Miklasz joins Tom Ackerman to break down the Cardinals' impressive May run—featuring the best record in baseball—and their latest 2-0 win over the Texas Rangers. They examine the leadership of Nolan Arenado, the commitment of Sonny Gray and Wilson Contreras, and how injuries like Jordan Walker's are opening up opportunities for players like Nolan Gorman and Lars Burleson. Miklasz makes a compelling case in defense of manager Oli Marmol, comparing his early success to Tony La Russa's first four seasons. Despite La Russa's legendary status, Marmol currently holds a better winning percentage, all while working with fewer organizational resources. Bernie highlights the context behind those numbers, praising Marmol's ability to maximize his roster.

In Hour 1, Tom Ackerman recaps the Cardinals' strong May performance, featuring dominant pitching from Sonny Gray and a key series win over the Rangers. Bernie Miklasz joins to compare Oliver Marmol's early managerial years with Tony La Russa's start in St. Louis, while highlighting Nolan Arenado's leadership. Indy 500 champion Alex Palou talks about making history as the first Spanish driver to win the race and previews his upcoming appearance at Worldwide Technology Raceway. Cardinals President John Mozeliak closes the hour with insight on Sonny Gray and Wilson Contreras' leadership, Jordan Walker's injury, and recent roster moves including player development strategies moving forward.

Post-Dispatch podcasts page: https://go.stltoday.com/0hfn43 Please consider subscribing: https://go.stltoday.com/9aigz5 A big, defining topic for the Cardinals' future and their development of a big, defining hitter needs a jumbo-sized Best Podcast in Baseball. For more than a decade, the Cardinals have had to go shopping for their middle-order hitters -- either by trade (Paul Goldcshmidt, Nolan Arenado, Marcell Ozuna) or, rarely, by free agency (Carlos Beltran, Willson Contreras) -- but during this "reset" year where offense has been a major part of their success, the Cardinals seem closer to having homegrown hitters in the middle of the order to build around. Brendan Donovan, currently hitting No. 3, leads the league in doubles and hits. Candidates to climb up to cleanup include Ivan Herrera. There is the catch. Herrera's bright future as a hitter seems clear. Less so, is where he fits at catcher. Kevin Wheeler, host at KMOX/104.1 FM, joins the Best Podcast in Baseball to discuss all of the ramifications of this question: Can the Cardinals develop the middle of the order for a contending team? It's a question thick with implications. With St. Louis Post-Dispatch baseball writer Derrick Goold, Wheeler discusses Herrera's fit as a potential cleanup hitter, what it means that the Cardinals have an advancing group of catching talents in the minors, and whether Herrera needs to be flanked by a fellow prospect for the Cardinals to have a strong lineup. The cost of surefire middle-order hitters is only going up, and increasingly all teams need both lightning and thunder to come from within the house. This BPIB discusses whether the Cardinals need to have Jordan Walker and/or Nolan Gorman join the middle of the order for their development summer to be a success, and where Alec Buleson, JJ Wetherholt, Lars Nootbaar, and Masyn Winn best fit into the lineup of the future. The Cardinals, with 10 different players who have at least 15 RBIs, are cranking out the hits this season and they've won 18 of their past 23 because of the depth of their lineup. Is that what the future holds as well -- not one or two hitters that are the fulcrum of the lineup but a depth that goes all the way to the speed at the bottom? The answer could be the key whether the Cardinals contend in the years they're looking toward as well. The Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a weekly production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.

Brenden Schaeffer discusses the St. Louis Cardinals coming from behind to win over the Orioles on Tuesday night in Baltimore.Lars Nootbaar put together a big day including a home run to help push the Cards out to a lead, and Andre Pallante was rolling along to maintain it -- until he wasn't.A 3-run homer for Baltimore meant the Cardinals had to find a way to come from behind. Nolan Gorman was tasked with a key spot against a lefty in the sixth inning, but was unable to tie the game, somewhat predictably. Brenden explains why Oli Marmol was anything but blind to that moment -- we have to see the bigger picture in 2025.Rest assured, later swings by Masyn Winn and Nolan Arenado put the Cardinals back ahead. And then lo and behold, we saw the 'runway' crew Gorman and Jordan Walker go back-to-back triples to help pad the newly-found lead.A lot to like about this one from the Cardinals perspective.Follow this podcast feed for daily Cardinals coverage all year!

The Detroit Tigers continue to thrive as the first MLB team to reach 30 wins in the 2025 season — a milestone that's contributed to the campaign nickname "Year of Javy," courtesy of Tigers TV voice Jason Benetti. But the Days of Roar podcast is ready to add a new theme: "Summer of Tork." Javier Báez continues to shine, single-handedly winning two key games against the Red Sox and Blue Jays, while Spencer Torkelson is on pace for 41 home runs and 131 RBIs, looking like 2022 Pete Alonso. Despite Detroit's hot start, the American League Central remains competitive, with the Twins, Guardians and Royals all already achieving 25 wins. Bobby Nightengale Jr., the Twins beat writer for the Minneapolis Star Tribune, joins the show fresh off Minnesota's 13-game winning streak. Looking ahead to the July 31 trade deadline, could a right-handed hitting third baseman like Nolan Arenado be the upgrade the Tigers need to win their first World Series since 1984? Plus, the Tigers are getting Jake Rogers, Matt Vierling and Casey Mize back from their injuries this week, with Parker Meadows expected to return next month. Follow Evan on X/Twitter here.
