Take advantage of our Playoff Diehard Sale and join our community today! https://alldlls.com/stars-playoff-offer-youtube   An ALLCITY Network Production   The Texas Rangers needed an arm for their bullpen Monday, so they called upon Robby Ahlstrom. The left-hander waited patiently until his first call from the bullpen Wednesday in the seventh inning, when he tossed 1 1 3/ scoreless innings. He struck out the first batter he faced, Jose Fermin, and then got Thomas Saggese to end the inning. The Rangers lost the game, though, 5-3, to snap a five-game winning streak. They return home Friday night for a three-game homestand and are expected to have Corey Seager and Wyatt Langford.   SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@DLLS_Sports   ALL THINGS DLLS:   WEBSITE: https://store.allcitynetwork.com/collections/dlls-locker   BUY MERCH: http://DLLSLocker.com   FOLLOW ON SOCIAL: Twitter: @DLLS_Sports Instagram: @DLLS_Sports   Become a DLLS Diehard and get access to premium content, our Discord channel, discounts on merch, and a free shirt!

He also addresses Jordan Walker stepping away from games to work on his swing, the evolving outfield picture with Lars Nootbaar and Thomas Saggese, and how the organization wants to reconnect with Cardinals fans through young talent and a relentless style of play.

JUPITER, Fla. -- Thomas Saggese has questions for the host of the Best Podcast in Baseball. Moments after finishing his first ever start in center field for the Cardinals, Saggese joins baseball writer Derrick Goold to talk about the transition to a new position and how much work he wants there before playing it in the regular season. But that's not all. Through the years, Saggese has often shifted interviews to ask great questions he has about history, statistics, and specifically voting for the MVP, other awards, and the National Baseball Hall of Fame. He was invited on the podcast so he could flip the script and ask those questions as part of a conversation. What follows is a deep dive into the decisions that go with a ballot, whether it's the MVP ballot or the Hall of Fame. The conversation explores how measuring a player with statistics contrasts with how a player measures themselves. Saggese talks about how he values batting average but avoids looking at it, and how when he's thinking about hitting he's seeking feel. Goold wonders what the reaction would be if he explained his votes for MVP and Hall of Fame by saying it just "felt right." And yet there's more common ground between statistics measuring a players production, especially as they evolve, and how a player works for that production. The podcast was recorded outside the Cardinals' new spring training facility, where construction continues. You'll hear it. More Post-Dispatch podcasts.  Please consider subscribing. In its 14th season as one of the first and most widely heard podcasts on baseball and the Cardinals, the Best Podcast in Baseball has reached a new season-high with 30 episodes. Each episode is sponsored weekly by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and lead baseball writer Derrick Goold.

Brenden Schaeffer discusses whether the Ramon Urias signing from over the weekend is a good fit for the Cardinals roster and what it could mean for Thomas Saggese and Jose Fermin.

Tom Ackerman talks with Cardinals President of Baseball Operations Chaim Bloom after the first spring training game about early impressions from camp and the competition taking shape. Bloom discusses Matthew Liberatore's outing, Quinn Matthews' stuff, and how Kyle Leahy has put himself in the mix for a rotation spot after stretching out as a starter. He also provides injury updates on Riley O'Brien and highlights prospects and depth pieces making impressions, including Luis Gastelum, Nathan Church, and Thomas Saggese. Bloom explains the addition of Ramón Urías as a versatile right-handed infield bat, the club's focus on improving defense behind young pitching, and how players like Fermín and Saggese could factor into outfield depth. He emphasizes that spring is about evaluating workloads, versatility, and who can help shape a roster built around developing young arms and stronger team defense.

On Off The Bench and The Stone Shields Show today we discuss the Reds losing to the Cardinals, NFL Power Rankings, is Joe Burrow the next Andrew Luck, the best QB's in college football and more! Off The Bench is back weekdays from 10a to 11a followed by The Stone Shields Show from 11a to noon! In a frustrating shutdown affair at Busch Stadium, the Cincinnati Reds suffered a 3-0 defeat to the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday night, September 16, 2025, dimming their fading playoff aspirations. The loss marked the Reds' fourth in five games, dropping them three games behind the New York Mets for the final National League Wild Card spot with just 12 contests left in the regular season. Cincinnati's offense, once a high-octane force, went ice-cold, managing only three hits against a stingy Cardinals staff. Rookie right-hander Michael McGreevy dominated for St. Louis, delivering seven sharp innings with just three hits, three walks, and six strikeouts on 91 pitches. His poise silenced the Reds' bats, setting the stage for Thomas Saggese's pivotal two-run homer in the third inning that provided all the offense the home team needed. Relievers closed out the three-hitter, with Riley O'Brien notching his fifth save in a crisp 1-2-3 ninth. On the mound, Reds starter Andrew Abbott struggled through 4 2/3 innings, surrendering three runs on eight hits while fanning seven. The defeat underscored Cincinnati's mounting inconsistencies—stranded runners and untimely errors plagued a lineup desperate for momentum after Monday's dramatic 11-6 comeback win. Manager David Bell lamented the missed opportunities, noting, "We couldn't string anything together tonight. Credit to their pitcher, but we've got to find our fight." Shifting gears to the gridiron, the undefeated Cincinnati Bengals (2-0) face a pivotal road test against the Minnesota Vikings (1-1) on Sunday, September 21, 2025, at U.S. Bank Stadium. Kickoff is set for 1:00 PM ET on CBS, with Minnesota favored by 3.5 points and a total of 42 points. Cincinnati enters hot off a gritty 31-27 thriller over Jacksonville, where backup QB Jake Browning stepped up amid Joe Burrow's indefinite injury absence. Browning's poise—highlighted by clutch late-game heroics—fuels optimism, but the Bengals' secondary talent, like Ja'Marr Chase, will clash with Minnesota's star Justin Jefferson. Running back Chase Brown (47 yards last outing) must exploit a Vikings rush defense that allowed 139 yards against Jacksonville. Music from #InAudio: https://inaudio.org/ Track Name Holy (Trap).

Libby and Fedde are locked in, Maton's untouchable, and Andre Granillo grabs his first MLB win and save. We preview the road trip to Cleveland and Pittsburgh, shout out Cal Raleigh's historic homer binge, and check in on the latest from around the league. Have a question or comment for the show?

Every week, two of the Best Fans in Baseball (TM) bring you all the news and analysis you need about the St. Louis Cardinals.  Another week of spring training in the books and Daniel (@C70) and David (@iPopEditor) are noticing things.  Like the improved play of Nolan Gorman, capped off with a home run on Sunday.  Or the fact that the Yankees suddenly seem to have a need for a major league starter.  Or how Thomas Saggese has caught fire as well.  All of these and much more elaborated on in the show!

JUPITER, Fla. -- Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado created buzz within the Yankees' social media greenhouse for driving to visit a couple of close friends and, oh, playing six or so innings in an exhibition baseball game. That is where the discussion begins in a brand new Best Podcast in Baseball featuring host and baseball writer Derrick Goold along with Post-Dispatch sports columnist Jeff Gordon. The downstream impact of Arenado remaining in Cardinals camp and starting at third base for the Cardinals is a major factor in their spring training, but it doesn't disrupt the priority playing time as much as it might seem. Nolan Gorman will still be able to receive ample at-bats, just at a new position. Brendan Donovan won't be budged from the lineup, just to the outfield. And so on, all the way to center field,. That is where this podcast goes. Looking at center field, the big-league bench, the rotation, and the bullpen, Gordon and Goold explore the decisions the Cardinals must make with young players that will reveal how committed they are to the future -- and how the now still shapes their choices. The players discussed include Michael McGreevy, Zack Thompson, Matthew Liberatore, Michael Siani, Thomas Saggese, and center fielder Victor Scott II, who is off to a blazing start to spring training. Gordon joins the podcast from St. Louis, while Goold is in Jupiter covering spring training for the Post-Dispatch's constant Cardinals coverage. The Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is in its 13th season. It is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.

While it's not the trade everybody has been anticipating all winter, the Cardinals did get on the board with an actual trade for a player that was added to the 40-man roster on Thursday, as St. Louis acquired utility man Michael Helman from the Twins. What are the implications of this trade, why did the Cardinals feel the need to make it, and what do we make of Michael Helman and his potential role on the team in 2025? Could Jose Fermin and Thomas Saggese be impacted by the acquisition? Follow this podcast feed for daily Cardinals coverage all year long!
