Podcast appearances and mentions of Sonny Gray

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.

Atlanta Braves vs. St Louis Cardinals MLB Pick Prediction by Tony T. Braves at Cardinals 2:15PM ET—Davis Daniel gets the start for Atlanta.

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.

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.

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.

Bernie Miklasz and Josh Jacobs break down the St. Louis Cardinals' sweep of the Cleveland Guardians to move to a season high nine games over .500 on the year. What do we make of the Cardinals' offensive explosion this series? Are Nolan Gorman and Alec Burleson core bats now? Is Pedro Pages the cacher of the future? And how about those pitching performances from Sonny Gray and Matthew Liberatore!

Brenden Schaeffer breaks down the masterful Sonny Gray performance from Friday as the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Guardians 5-0. Sonny threw a one-hitter, a shutout, a MADDUX (fewer than 100 pitches) by retiring the Cleveland lineup for 27 outs on just 89 pitches, walking none, giving up just one hit, and somehow doing those amazing efficient things while striking out 11 batters.He was as good as we've ever seen, and doled out a lot of credits to his teammates, especially Pedro Pages, after the win. Pedro contributed, too, at the plate with a homer, and Alec Burleson also went yard. Lots of good vibes for the Cardinals to begin the road trip!Follow this podcast feed for daily Cardinals coverage!

St Louis Cardinals vs. Cleveland Guardians MLB Pick Prediction by Tony T. Cardinals at Guardians 7PM ET—Sonny Gray is starting for St Louis. Gray started fifteen games with an ERA of 3.72 and WHIP of 1.19. The veteran strikes out 25.9% with 4.9% walks. Ground balls dished at 38.7% with 1.06 home runs per nine innings.

Brenden Schaeffer discusses the St. Louis Cardinals thrilling comeback win over the Reds from Saturday at Busch Stadium as the Cardinals rallied from nothing in the bottom of the eighth inning to score a couple runs, tacked on an Arenado homer to tie it in the ninth, before seeing Yohel Pozo play the hero in the 11th inning.We talk Sonny Gray's outing and more that led up to the fateful 11th inning walkoff. Plus, we go down on the farm to trace back to Tink Hence's mastery from Friday in Springfield.Follow this podcast feed for daily Cardinals coverage all year!

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.

St Louis Cardinals vs. Milwaukee Brewers MLB Pick Prediction by Tony T. Cardinals at Brewers 7:40PM ET—Sonny Gray will start for St Louis. Gray had thirteen starts with an ERA of 3.35 with WHIP of 1.13. The right hander strikes out 26.5% with 4.6% walks. Ground balls dealt at 38.2% with 1.08 home runs per nine innings. Jacob Misiorowski starts for Milwaukee.

Brenden Schaeffer breaks down the St. Louis Cardinals 5-0 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday night at Busch Stadium as Shohei Ohtani's club didn't hold up to the might of Sonny Gray's arsenal in this matchup.Gray cruised to another scoreless appearance against a stout lineup as he's looking like the ace that was promised all along.The bullpen rounded into form, too, as the offense made sure to get what it needed against LAD starter Justin Wrobleski (who was extremely volatile in a very strange bottom of the fifth inning!). Good to see the defensive brilliance continue for the Cardinals, too, plus the recent trend of power swings by Willson Contreras showed up again.And we go down on the farm to discuss some big-time efforts by prominent Cardinals pitching prospects.Follow this podcast feed for daily Cardinals talk all year round!

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.

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner break down MLB betting for Tuesday. The guys also give out best bets. he MLB Tuesday Preview & Best Bets podcast hosted by Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner delivers a game-by-game analysis of the 13 MLB matchups scheduled for Tuesday. The show opens with some light NBA draft lottery banter, but the bulk of the discussion is tightly focused on baseball betting strategies, player performance, and team trends, all based on currently available betting lines. In the Brewers versus Guardians game, both hosts express doubts over Quinn Priester's reliability as the Brewers have lost four straight games he's started, providing him minimal run support. Logan Allen's control issues are acknowledged, but the Guardians are still preferred as a slight home favorite. The Twins against the Orioles matchup sees both hosts backing the Twins, riding their eight-game win streak and taking advantage of Kade Povich's continued struggles, especially at home. Munaf suggests taking the Twins team total over due to their potent offense. For the White Sox and Reds, Griffin leans toward the Reds' offense prevailing, noting the White Sox's dreadful 3-17 road record. Abbott's limited innings aren't seen as problematic due to the White Sox's overall weaknesses. In the Cardinals and Phillies clash, Sonny Gray's consistency and St. Louis' bullpen strength make them an appealing underdog, with both hosts preferring an under if the total reaches eight. The Rays versus Blue Jays game highlights the collapse of Tampa Bay's pitching, with Shane Boz's recent blowups making the Blue Jays the favored side, especially with Jose Berrios pitching steadily at home. In the Pirates versus Mets game, both see little hope for the Pirates despite a recent managerial change, with Munaf favoring the Mets run line and team total over, given Kodai Senga's strong stats. For Nationals versus Braves, the consensus is Braves team total over, citing Soroka's vulnerability and the Braves' offensive firepower, though bullpen concerns persist. The Marlins against Cubs matchup leans strongly toward the Cubs, with their superior offense and Ben Brown's solid form giving them a significant edge. The Rockies versus Rangers game reflects both hosts' disdain for the Rockies' 2-17 road record, suggesting Rangers -1.5 and under 8.5 as the play, with the Arlington ballpark playing pitcher-friendly. Royals versus Astros is a more cautious game, with both acknowledging Michael Wacha's solid form and Framber Valdez's unpredictability when a favorite, but Munaf leans Astros at -140. The Angels versus Padres game is flagged as a potential upset, with Dylan Cease expected to regress after his long no-hit bid. Both hosts side with the Angels due to the risky price on the Padres. In the Yankees versus Mariners showdown, Griffin emphasizes Brian Wu's 11-1 home record and favors Mariners as a home underdog while also suggesting the under, citing the ballpark's suppression of runs. Finally, the Diamondbacks versus Giants game is strongly supported by both as a Giants money line play, highlighting Robbie Ray's perfect 8-0 start record for the Giants. Brentt Fott's last strong outing against the Dodgers is considered unsustainable in the pitcher-friendly Oracle Park, especially given the Giants' ability to win division games at home. Best bets for the day are Griffin's pick of Guardians ML at -120 and Munaf's pick of Giants ML at -105. The overall tone reflects skepticism toward big favorites, leaning instead on undervalued home underdogs and carefully selected unders in specific matchups, especially where bullpen and venue factors suppress offense.

Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner get you set for this weekends MLB betting. We kick things off with the Friday games and offer up best bets. On the May 2 episode of RJ Bell's Dream Preview MLB Podcast, hosts Munaf Manji and Griffin Warner deliver sharp, stats-backed insights across the full Friday MLB slate. With Griffin riding a six-podcast win streak and Munaf at a 7–3 record on the season, both bring analytical edge to betting lines, pitching matchups, and team trends. They begin with Nationals vs. Reds, with Griffin skeptical of Cincinnati's high price (-161) and backing underdog Mitchell Parker (+146) despite his weak fielding. Munaf notes the Nationals have won four of his five starts. Next is Padres at Pirates. Cease hasn't pitched six innings since early April, and Keller's inconsistency leads both hosts to favor the Pirates at +142. Diamondbacks vs. Phillies features Jesus Luzardo (1.73 ERA) facing Merrill Kelly. Due to Arizona's bullpen injuries and Philly's undervalued pitching, Griffin names Phillies -142 his best bet. In Royals vs. Orioles, Wacha faces off against Kremer, who's allowed 5 ER in his last two starts. Still, doubts about Kansas City's offense tip the scale toward Baltimore. Yankees (-235) host the Rays with Max Fried on the mound. Fried boasts a career 0.42 ERA vs. Tampa. The hosts avoid fading him. Guardians visit the Blue Jays, where Chris Bassitt has allowed only 1 ER in 11 home innings. Logan Allen struggled defensively last game. Munaf leans Jays in the first five. Twins vs. Red Sox offers value on Boston at -103. Griffin questions Joe Ryan's volatility and trusts Bello's recent support. For A's-Marlins, the A's are road favorites behind debuting Gunnar Hoglund. Griffin calls this mispriced, siding with Miami (+123). Dodgers and Yamamoto face Braves, with Yamamoto holding a 1.06 ERA. Despite a steep -172 price, Munaf backs L.A., while Griffin questions Braves' rare underdog status. In Astros vs. White Sox, Framber Valdez faces Jonathan Cannon. Given inconsistent Astros bats and Cannon's walk rate, Munaf avoids the -235 price. Griffin leans under. Mariners at Rangers features Brian Wu vs. Jack Leiter. With Texas 15-2 to the under at home, Munaf's best bet is under 8.5. Griffin leans Rangers as a home dog. Cubs vs. Brewers sees Ben Brown against Quinn Priester. Despite Brown's strikeout potential, Griffin and Munaf both back the Brewers at plus money due to home-field motivation. For Mets vs. Cardinals, Clay Holmes faces Sonny Gray, who has dominated at home. Munaf backs the Cardinals citing Gray's form. In Tigers vs. Angels, Skubal dominates and Trout's IL status hurts L.A. Munaf recommends Tigers via moneyline or run line. Lastly, Giants host Rockies with Robbie Ray on the mound. Ray's teams are 6-0 in his starts, but Griffin finds -280 too steep and suggests a Rockies run line. Munaf agrees on targeting Giants team total. Griffin's best bet: Phillies -142. Munaf's: Mariners vs. Rangers under 8.5. The show closes encouraging listeners to shop lines, list pitchers, and monitor late moves, all key in chasing sharp MLB edges.
