This week, Pete joined Ron and the Gateway Sports crew for a no-spin, big-picture look at the Cardinals’ decline — and what it’ll take to fix it. Not just 2025, but the multi-year slide of what was once one of baseball’s model franchises. From ownership priorities to player development to the culture around the team, this isn’t your typical postmortem — it’s a candid, long-form conversation about how the Cardinals got here and what it’s going to take to climb back. Derek King, Rodney Knuppel, and Don Glenn, each bring their own sharp takes and deep frustrations to the table. Topics include: The slow erosion since 2015 — and whether the Goldschmidt/Pujols years just masked the problem How much blame falls on ownership’s focus outside baseball Chaim Bloom’s timeline for showing results Oli Marmol’s uncertain future Roster direction and the lessons of holding on too long The meaning (and limits) of “The Cardinal Way” in 2025 and beyond It’s an honest, unfiltered look at where the franchise stands — and whether the next decade can bring the Cardinals back to their standard of sustained success.

Brenden Schaeffer breaks down an oft-discussed topic of the past couple years, which is Yadier Molina potentially joining the Cardinals in a formal capacity.While the last time we heard about this, it did not ultimately materialize as expected, could Yadi's guest coaching stints in 2025 point toward his readiness to commit to a more significant role with the club in 2026?And how would Yadi serving on Oli Marmol's coaching staff potentially set the stage for his future foray into managing an MLB team down the road?

Cardinals legend Yadier Molina recently revealed that he is looking to join the coaching staff of the St. Louis Cardinals. Is that a good idea to have him around a rebuilding club next season? Will he be a distraction to the team, or will he bring out the best in the Cardinals' young players? Will Yadi replace Oli Marmol as manager of the Cardinals one day?

Tom Ackerman opens the show by taking calls from Cardinals fans, giving listeners a platform to react to Chaim Bloom's hiring and the decision to retain manager Oli Marmol. Fans share their frustrations, hopes, and expectations for the team's future as Tom breaks down recent performances and the organization's need for change. The conversation then shifts to Hollywood, where William H. Macy joins Tom from the St. Louis premiere of “Soul on Fire” — a film about Jack Buck's compassion and John O'Leary's remarkable recovery. Macy reflects on portraying Buck and filming in St. Louis landmarks like Busch Stadium and the Gateway Arch. Next, Blues Head Coach Jim Montgomery discusses the team's preseason matchup with the Chicago Blackhawks, roster battles, and the progress of young prospects as the regular season nears. Lindenwood Head Coach Keith Fisher follows with insights on the Lions' opener against Wisconsin, areas for improvement, and the growth of hockey in the St. Louis community.

John Mozeliak officially says goodbye, Chaim Bloom steps in as Cardinals president of baseball ops, and Oli Marmol will return in 2026. Willson Contreras wants to stay in St. Louis, while Sonny Gray and Nolan Arenado are open to waiving their no-trade clauses—potentially clearing over $86 million from the payroll. We dig into what that means for the roster, the offseason, and the team's future direction. Plus, playoff chatter and a wild week of league news as the Mets collapse, multiple managers are out, and MLB viewership climbs.Have a question or comment for the show?

BK & T-Bone break down his first big move of the offseason: bringing back Oli Marmol as manager. Why does it make sense to keep Oli, and should he get a contract extension? Big decisions loom—what will Bloom do with the No-Trade Clause trio: Sonny Gray, Nolan Arenado, and Willson Contreras? Bloom remains high on Jordan Walker's potential—is it the right call to run it back with him in 2025.

Bernie Miklasz joined Tom Ackerman to reflect on John Mozeliak's 18-year tenure leading the Cardinals front office. He highlighted Mozeliak's impact on the organization, from maintaining stability after Walt Jocketty's departure to drafting and developing cornerstone players such as Yadier Molina, and making major acquisitions like Matt Holliday and Nolan Arenado. They discussed managerial hires including Mike Matheny, Mike Shildt, and Oli Marmol, each of whom won division titles, and the recent scrutiny of Marmol's decision to intentionally walk Michael Bush at Wrigley Field, a move some fans criticized but Miklasz defended as strategically sound.

In Hour 2, Tom Ackerman breaks down his Week 4 NFL picks with detailed predictions and spreads. NHRA legend Tony Schumacher joins to preview the Midwest Nationals at Worldwide Technology Raceway in Madison, Illinois, and share insights on racing conditions in Top Fuel drag racing. The conversation shifts to John Mozeliak's farewell, reflecting on his 18-year tenure with the Cardinals, his major achievements, and the stability he brought to the organization. Ackerman also revisits the Cardinals-Cubs rivalry, debating Oli Marmol's controversial intentional walk of Michael Bush, and looks ahead to Mozeliak's final press conference on Monday and Chaim Bloom's introductory press conference on Tuesday.

First up, the legendary Yadier Molina is back in the dugout as a guest coach for the entire weekend series against the San Francisco Giants. We break down what his presence means for the young catchers and the team's morale—could this be a hint at a bigger role for Yadi in the future?Then, we celebrate a gritty series win over the Giants, pushing the Cardinals back to .500 and keeping those faint playoff hopes alive. From Sonny Gray's no-hit bid in the finale to key hits that sealed the 2-1 series victory, we recap the highs, lows, and standout performances that made this homestand memorable. Finally, the big debate: Should Oli Marmol return as manager in 2026? With his contract expiring and Chaim Bloom set to take over baseball ops, we weigh the pros and cons—from Marmol's growth as a skipper to fan calls for change, including potential replacements like Yadi himself.

We break down the candid and eye-opening comments from manager Oli Marmol and hitting coach Brant Brown about young outfielder Jordan Walker's persistent struggles at the plate and his lackluster approach to preparation. During their recent appearance on the Gashouse Gang radio show on KMOX with host Bernie Miklasz, Brown emphasized Walker's need for a "full commitment" to daily routines like studying film on starters and relievers, warning that the slugger is caught in a "game of tennis" between his own ideas and what the coaching staff recommends, and that true improvement requires getting "a little bit more uncomfortable." Marmol echoed these concerns, noting Walker's early MLB success has given way to failures in adjusting to pitchers' strategies, but stressed that better pregame work and pitch recognition could turn things around—while insisting he's "nowhere close to giving up" on the talented 23-year-old. We dissect Walker's dismal 2025 stats, including a .220 batting average and 31.7% strikeout rate, explore what this public critique means for his development and the Cardinals' floundering offense, and debate whether this tough love from the coaches will spark a turnaround or signal deeper issues in the organization's player development pipeline.

Alec Burleson had the final say as the Cardinals walked off the Pirates on Monday night, but Willson Contreras certainly had plenty to say of his own. We break down the night for Burly, Michael McGreevy, whether the Cardinals are closer to the Brewers or the Pirates in the hierarchy of the NL Central, plus Contreras' tirade against the home plate umpire that got him and Oli Marmol ejected from the game.

We discuss the latest Cardinals roster shuffles with Donovan and Scott hitting the IL, Arenado's progress toward a return, and Mozeliak's public backing of Oli Marmol. We look at standout performances from Svanson, McGreevy, and Pagés, while breaking down the team's troubling offensive trends in August. Plus, we preview the Rays and Pirates series and dive into league news, from MLB's shifting media deals to Victor Robles' suspension and realignment chatter.Have a question or comment for the show?
