An interesting game for the Cardinals last night. We talk it over with Martin Kilcoyne here. Contreras' ejection, Burleson walk-off, Sonny Gray and more thoughts on salvaging some good from this season. Fan attendance has dropped to a number the team hasn't seen since 1997. What will the rest of this week look like with the perfect weather? Is it this low from here on out? Lots of rumbling about Wetherholt but is it worth it to bring him up already? We pitch Quinn Matthews to the rotation as well. We take a quick look at the starting week for college football too. Listen here thanks to Lou Fusz Automotive group:

Where do the Cardinals go from here? How to they salvage some good from this season? We talk about Gorman, Wetherholt, Arenado, Sonny Gray and more. Will there be a lockout/labor dispute? With lots of money coming off the books in the next two years, will they go get a superstar? We get into the thought of keeping Gorman at third while the Arenado injury leaves more questions. Wild card hopes for the year have been dashed but could there be even further expansion for playoffs in the near future? Will a billion dollars get an MLB expansion team? We take a look at the so-called competition for the QB spot at Mizzou plus a glimpse into the region's prep football season. Listen here thanks to Lou Fusz Automotive group:

We dive into the St. Louis Cardinals' thrilling series win against the rival Chicago Cubs, highlighted by a 3-2 victory fueled by Sonny Gray's dominant seven-inning performance and Nolan Gorman's clutch hit to score Jordan Walker. We break down key moments, including Walker's recent hot streak with back-to-back three-hit games and a 434-foot homer, sparking debate on whether he's getting enough playing time to maximize his potential. Is the young slugger finally turning the corner, and how does the outfield mix impact the lineup? Plus, we analyze the Cardinals' chances for an outside shot at the playoffs as the season heats up, exploring critical matchups, standings, and what it'll take to ignite a postseason run.

St Louis Cardinals vs. LA Dodgers MLB Pick Prediction by Tony T. Cardinals at Dodgers 10PM ET—Sonny Gray will start for St Louis. Gray, 22 starts delivers an ERA of 4.38 with WHIP of 1.22. The veteran fans 26.5% with 4% walks. Ground balls are 40.7% with 1.11 home runs per nine innings. A FIP of 3.08. Tyler Glasnow makes the start for LAD.

The Cardinals made deadline noise, sending Ryan Helsley to the Mets and Erick Fedde to Atlanta, while Brendan Donovan and JoJo Romero continue to draw heavy interest. Sonny Gray is staying put, but Tekoah Roby is out with Tommy John surgery. The team has just four wins since the break and now sits 10 games back in the Central—so what should the rest of the season look like? We preview the upcoming road trip to San Diego and Los Angeles and ask if Ivan Herrera in the outfield makes any sense. Plus, a flurry of league trades, Bryce Harper goes off on Manfred, and we remember Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg.

(00:00-18:05) Those pesky fish. Just four safeties. Less than 48 hours to go til the trade deadline. Katie Woo hearing they won't be parting ways with Gray, Contreras, or Mikolas. Helsley seems to think he's going to get moved. Says he'd be interested in coming back. Audio of Sonny Gray talking about struggling to pitch in the heat. Timmy Two Gloves official statement. Wet, it's just wet. What happened to rosin bags?(18:13-30:33) This music lets you know we're tough and cool. OK, Derek, whatever you say. Jackson was the breakout star of Spring Training. Stanning John King. Barge Guy back for another go round today. What's he hearing 48 hours out? You can fry an egg on a barge. Not happy with the price of soccer cleats. Huge couple of days for Barge Guy.(30:43-49:27) Trade deadline song. SELL, SELL, SELL. Nice job, Mike. Call in. Get your weight forward, bro. Doug wasn't happy with Bryce Harper going after Rob Manfred and Dan Patrick agrees. Audio of Dan talking about the salary cap/work stoppage situation and the Harper/Manfred confrontation.

Sonny Gray described the impact of the St. Louis heat after Tuesday's loss to the Marlins as the Cardinals fell 5-0 to the Fish at Busch Stadium. Gray pitches decently, but described the issues he's been having gripping the baseball in the sweltering STL heat. Is this a matter of a player making excuses, or is he actually giving us exactly what we always claim to want from athletes -- CANDOR! Hey, I loved hearing it and I'll explain why I enjoyed Sonny's perspective so much.Plus, an odd scenario unfolding that made it seem like the Hug Watch could be on for Cardinal lefty Steven Matz. Ultimately, it seems like it all stemmed from a simple coincidence... Or was it?

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner break down MLB betting for Tuesday. Opening context (0:10–1:40) – Munaf sets the stage for the week's MLB action, mentioning the trade deadline and the previous episode's 2–0 best bets. Griffin notes wearing a Rangers shirt “brought them luck” as they surged post-All-Star break. Emmanuel Clase's suspension (1:56–4:00) – Munaf explains the betting investigation: 11 of 22 first pitches “non-competitive.” Griffin criticizes the Guardians' collapse, with bullpen struggles (Hunter Gaddis, Cade Smith), concluding they're “pretty much finished.” Diamondbacks vs Tigers (6:40–11:41) – Munaf & Griffin break down Casey Mize (10 ER in 7 IP, minus 132 favorite) vs Brandon Pfaadt (road ERA 5.94). Both skeptical of backing either team but lean toward Tigers if Mize rebounds. Guardians vs Rockies (11:42–15:20) – Logan Allen's poor history vs Rockies (37.80 ERA), Guardians' instability post-Clase news. Griffin leans toward Rockies run line. Yankees vs Rays (15:20–20:19) – No Aaron Judge weakens NY; Max Fried's two dominant starts vs Rays (14.2 IP, 0 ER). Both favor the under 8.5 runs or first five innings under 4.5. Dodgers vs Reds (20:20–24:26) – Tyler Glasnow (13 IP, 2 ER, 18 K in last two) vs Nicolò Lodolo (coming off CG shutout). Munaf favors the under 9; Griffin hesitant to back the Dodgers at -149. Cubs vs Brewers (24:27–29:23) – Quinn Priester (9–2, 3.28 ERA) as Brewers' ace vs Colin Rea. Griffin excited about the Brewers' home underdog value; Munaf notes their 10 straight wins with Priester starting. Phillies vs White Sox (29:24–31:55) – Jesus Luzardo vs Jonathan Cannon. Munaf expects Phillies to dominate; Griffin cautious but notes White Sox's poor bullpen. Braves vs Royals (31:55–38:01) – Eric Fedde's 2–10 road record vs newly extended Seth Lugo. Both puzzled by Royals' strategy but back Lugo and KC. Marlins vs Cardinals (38:03–45:13) – Sandy Alcantara's road woes vs Sonny Gray (12–1 at home). Griffin sees Marlins' value; Munaf expects Cards' offense to produce. Nationals vs Astros (45:13–52:25) – Jason Alexander vs Michael Soroka. Astros in a slump (five-game losing streak), lacking offensive power without Tucker & Alvarez. Munaf leans Nationals first five innings. Rangers vs Angels (52:25–55:52) – Patrick Corbin (1 ER over last 2 starts) vs Yusei Kikuchi (struggling in July). Griffin and Munaf lean Rangers +107 and team total overs. Pirates vs Giants (55:54–59:51) – Bailey Falter vs Justin Verlander. Griffin plans to fade Verlander; Munaf suggests Pirates' first five inning money line or team totals. Mariners vs A's (1:00:02–1:03:41) – Logan Evans vs Luis Severino. A's 2–10 in Severino home starts (6.68 ERA). Both prefer full game over 10.5. Best bets (1:04:35–1:08:06) – Griffin: Royals -119 vs Braves; Munaf: Brewers -110 vs Cubs. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

San Diego Padres vs. St Louis Cardinals MLB Pick Prediction by Tony T. Padres at Cardinals 7:45PM ET—Yu Darvish is starting for San Diego.

Tom Ackerman talks with Adam Wainwright about his recent appearance with the Savannah Bananas describing the experience as part baseball, part circus, and all about fun. They also dive into the Cardinals' struggling pitching rotation, including standout moments like Sonny Gray's no-hitter, and assess the team's playoff chances. Plus, Wainwright previews his Big League Impact charity concert on July 27 at The Factory in Chesterfield, supporting essential food, water, and shelter programs.

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.

This week Ron, Elliott, and Pete welcome back special guest Dustin “The Duke” Duquenne as they dive headfirst into last weekend's fireworks at Wrigley, highlighted by an eight-homer beatdown of the Cardinals on the Fourth of July that set league and franchise records (for both teams!). As Elliott, Duke, and Pete gleefully recap every bomb, Ron copes with the Cardinals' ongoing rotation mismanagement – why hasn't Sonny Gray faced the Cubs this year? – and the baffling decision to keep running Miles Mikolas and Erick Fedde out to the mound.Duke brings the chaos, sparking classic banter and adding fuel to the fire during All-Star snub season. The guys vent about Seiya Suzuki's absence from the roster, Michael Busch's case over Freddie Freeman, and the absurdity of fan voting, especially when it gifts Ronald Acuña Jr. a starting spot with only 42 games played.Pete pays tribute to the late Lee Elia with a dramatic, profanity-laced replay of Elia's legendary 1983 tirade – a masterclass in manager meltdowns. They also touch on Andre Dawson's birthday, Wrigley's misunderstood park factors, and the absolute dumpster fire that is Cardinals Twitter/X.Other highlights include:A trade deadline preview and what the Cubs and Cardinals might doMic'd-up players and the awkward Sunday Night Baseball conversation with Masyn WinnThe Nationals' bizarre front office purgeRob Manfred's push for a salary cap and how that might actually workA nostalgic detour into He-Man toys and 80s cartoon logicRon's Soccer Minute: City SC's woes continue, with little hope coming via the transfer windowWhether you're basking in Cubs euphoria or buried under Cardinals frustration, this episode delivers laughs, rants, and the kind of unfiltered takes you've come to expect from the Team of Rivals.Check out Paul Jellison's full YouTube video of Lea Elia's rant.Check out this week's livestream on YouTube, Rumble, Facebook, or X.Follow us on X and Instagram.

(00:00-18:24) The SEC Umpire is on hold and he says he has a solution to Jackson's movie talker problem. SEC Ump wants to know our hat sizes because he has a gift for us. Jackson says don't bring your own blankets to the theatre. Getting shushed. Smuggling your own food in.(18:32-41:41) Keith/Greg from Wisconsin on the phone lines. Keith with tales of movie theatre hijinx. Racing piglets in between innings. Doug's trying to profile Mrs. Keith. Would the Yankees have interest in Arenado after DFAing DJ LeMahieu? Audio of Nolan Arenado on MLB Network talking about having fun this year. Where would they be without Sonny Gray?(41:51-53:17) Stumbling into bangers. Wishing SLU and Mizzou would play.

(00:00-26:16) It's a foggy Wednesday; be careful driving. Martin gave up on the Redbirds with the rain delay and power outage. Sonny Gray needs to pitch every game. The Pirates haven't won since sweeping the Cardinals. What's the difference in a B+ and an A-? Not many people at the game last night. Wireless electricity.(26:24-58:08) Carpen, Carpen, Carpenter. Audio of Oli Marmol talking about the starting rotation. I'm confused, Doug, I don't understand. More Marmol audio talking about the Fedde and MIkolas situation. Marmol on Sonny Gray's regiment and going 5 innings. Happy Jeff Fisher Day.(58:18-1:18:34) What are you, a Motley Crue guy? Early-era Plowsy. Sailor tattoos. Jack LaLanne. Roger Clemens has a case for the best pitcher of all time.

Doug leads a pilates class during the break.(17:17-19:25) Getting ready to be joined by Adam Wainwright. Big League Bash coming up July 27th.(19:35-47:11) Adam Wainwright joins the show. Players giving teammates trouble if they pack on a few pounds. Waino's fired up for Big League Bash. Cardinals exceeding expectations. Sonny Gray's regimen. Did Adam ever ask a manager to come out of a game? Striking out Carlos Beltran in the 2006 NLCS. Do pitchers nap before starts?

Every week, two of the Best Fans in Baseball (TM) bring you all the news and analysis you need about the St. Louis Cardinals.  After a downer midweek, the Cardinals came back out and swept the Guardians in Cleveland.  Daniel (@C70) and David (@iPopEditor) sort out how they feel about this team now that they've basically run their June gauntlet.  How bright is the future, both in 2025 and beyond?  How impressive was Sonny Gray's game and who do we have to talk to about at least limiting niche networks to once per series?  And why did Chumbawamba make an appearance?  All that and much more!

Tom Ackerman joins Kim St. Onge to break down the Cardinals' strong showing after a sweep of the Cleveland Guardians and improved road performance. With standout pitching from Sonny Gray and Matthew Liberatore, the team now sits just 2.5 games out of first place. The conversation shifts to the Cardinals-Cubs rivalry, fan frustration over low attendance during a perceived rebuilding phase, and what the trade deadline might bring. On the hockey front, they discuss the possibility of Jordan Kyrou being traded, the Blues' young core, and offseason moves. The episode also touches briefly on population movement trends in Missouri and what that could mean for the future of St. Louis.

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner break down MLB Saturday from a betting perspective. They open by focusing on the early matchup between the Tigers and Rays. Both lean toward Tampa Bay, highlighting Ryan Pepio's strong recent form—3.11 ERA over 15 starts and 11 strikeouts in his last outing. Pepio's underappreciated market value and Detroit's surprising top MLB record are discussed, with consensus on Rays at -120. For Orioles vs Yankees, Clark Schmidt is praised for allowing only three earned runs across four recent starts. Zach Eflin, although historically solid against the Yankees, struggled in his last outing. Both lean toward Orioles as underdogs and prefer the under 9.5 total due to Yankee Stadium's scoring tendencies. In Reds vs Cardinals, Sonny Gray's strong home record (5-1, 2.85 ERA) contrasts with his struggles against Cincinnati (4.70 ERA). Without a Reds starter listed, Griffin leans toward the Reds due to line inflation. Munaf might back St. Louis if run line odds are favorable. Seattle at Chicago is discussed with attention to wind's effect at Wrigley Field. Emerson Hancock has pitched well recently, but the Mariners lost his last four starts due to poor run support. Cade Horton's 2.70 ERA at home is noted. Both hosts await wind direction before betting, with a potential over expected. In Milwaukee vs Minnesota, Quintana's inconsistency and walk rate are flagged, while Richardson is labeled a weak rotation fill-in. Despite concerns, both see value in Brewers at plus money. For White Sox vs Blue Jays, Berríos' strong history against Chicago (14-6, 3.16 ERA) supports Munaf's best bet: Jays -1.5 run line at -105. Griffin notes the White Sox's poor weekend performances and questions their motivation. Rangers vs Pirates features concerns around Kumar Rocker's splits (15.09 ERA on road) and Mitch Keller's unreliable late innings. Despite bad offenses, both expect a high-scoring game. The Braves visit the Marlins in a matchup where Grant Holmes is riding a 15-strikeout game. Yuri Perez has struggled mightily vs Atlanta. Both favor a Braves team total over as their offense heats up. Kansas City faces San Diego with Dylan Cease showing volatility. Royals are praised for recent form, including a sweep of Texas, and bullpen strength. Hosts lean Royals ML and under in the first five innings. Mets vs Phillies highlights Griffin Canning's struggles—10 earned runs in his last two outings—against Mick Abel's potential. Philadelphia is seen as cheap at -112, with both supporting the home side. In Arizona vs Colorado, Merrill Kelly's dominance (7-0, 1.60 ERA vs Rockies since 2022) is emphasized, including a 2.03 ERA at Coors. Yet due to rising temperatures and Palmquist's late fade, they suggest betting over. Astros vs Angels is discussed with Walter's solid last start (6.2 IP, 1 ER, 9 K) and Soriano's overall reliability. However, the Angels' 1-5 record vs lefties at home tilts the pick to Astros at -110. Guardians vs A's offers little confidence. Luis Ortiz's high walk rate and Mitch Spence's Triple-A quality result in a lean toward the over and a mild interest in the A's if plus money improves. Nationals vs Dodgers sees Jake Irvin's night game struggles (5.16 ERA) and Dustin May's inconsistency. The hosts recommend Dodgers team total over or full game over. Lastly, Boston visits San Francisco with Brayan Bello consistent and Landen Roop unproven. While Giants are tough at home, the under 7.5 is the preferred angle due to low scoring projections. Griffin's best bet is Rays ML behind Pepio, while Munaf backs Berríos and Toronto on the run line. The episode closes with promo code RBI20 for a discounted betting package.

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner talk MLB betting for Friday. Best bets as always. Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner preview the MLB Friday slate on RJ Bell's Dream Preview. They open by discussing the Orioles' recent 9-2 stretch despite being 11 games under .500, and Minnesota's past long winning streak. Griffin reflects on Moneyball's low ranking on his movie list and praises Pete Crow-Armstrong of the Cubs. In the Phillies vs. Pirates matchup, Joe Ross starts for Philly as an opener while Bailey Falter, performing solidly for Pittsburgh, starts for the Pirates. Both agree under 9 runs is the best angle due to limited offensive firepower from Pittsburgh and Ross's limited innings. Next, Texas faces Washington with Patrick Corbin vs. Michael Soroka. Corbin has stabilized while Soroka battles recurring injuries. Griffin likes Nationals ML and over 9.5, noting Nationals' young talent and the weather boosting offense. Munaf supports first 5 over and Nationals' team total over, citing Texas' poor 9-20 road record. In Red Sox vs. Yankees, Walker Buehler faces Will Warren. Boston's bats have struggled, while Warren allowed 7 ER in his last outing. Both predict an over 9 outcome, expecting Rafael Devers to homer and citing both teams' bullpen issues. The Diamondbacks visit Cincinnati with Eduardo Rodriguez vs. Nick Lodolo. Rodriguez has allowed 13 ER over his last 3 starts with control issues. Lodolo's 4-4 record and 3.10 ERA give Griffin confidence in the Reds. Munaf favors Reds ML and sees plenty of scoring. Astros travel to Cleveland with Colton Gordon vs. Logan Allen. Allen's lefty matchup gives the right-handed Astros lineup an edge, but Munaf remains cautious due to Houston's late travel. Griffin would take Astros at plus money, considering Cleveland's competitiveness. Kansas City faces the White Sox with Seth Lugo vs. Davis Martin. Lugo has dominated the White Sox historically, allowing just 3 ER over 29.1 IP. Munaf strongly supports Royals RL, citing Lugo's recent success against Chicago, while Griffin leans over 8. The Padres visit Milwaukee with Randy Vasquez vs. Chad Patrick. Vasquez's control issues and HR susceptibility concern both hosts. Griffin makes Brewers ML -142 his best bet, citing Milwaukee's base-stealing prowess and San Diego's fatigue after extra-inning games. Munaf adds Brewers first 5 team total over. Dodgers face Cardinals with Justin Robleski vs. Sonny Gray. Injuries to Betts and Freeman concern both. Griffin trusts Gray as a home underdog, noting St. Louis' bullpen depth. Munaf supports Over 8.5, expecting offensive production from both sides. The Mets visit Colorado with Kodai Senga vs. Antonio Senzatela. Senzatela enters 1-10 with a 7.14 ERA and 1.98 WHIP. Munaf makes Mets team total Over 6.5 his best bet, expecting New York's offense to dominate at Coors Field. Griffin acknowledges Rockies' rare 3-game win streak but avoids backing them. Seattle travels to Anaheim with Bryce Miller facing Kyle Hendricks. Miller's bone spur has altered his delivery, making Griffin favor the Angels ML, citing their hot bats and rest advantage. Munaf agrees, backing the Angels and runs scored. In San Francisco, Braves' Spencer Schwellenbach faces Giants' Hayden Birdsong. Schwellenbach has 22 Ks in his last two starts, but Griffin trusts Birdsong and Giants' bullpen, backing the under 7.5 and Giants ML. Munaf echoes this, emphasizing both pitchers' strong form. They close with Griffin taking Brewers ML as his best bet and Munaf locking in Mets team total Over 6.5. They promote pregame.com with a STRIKE20 discount code for picks packages.
