Cardinals Victor Scott II highlights from 790 AM Cardinals beat Pittsburgh 5-0 Wed.

The St. Louis Cardinals have won five games in a row and swept the Pittsburgh Pirates for a 6-1 homestand. Is it time to be optimistic about the outlook of the Cardinals again? Will they still sell at the trade deadline despite getting back to a .500 record and just 3 games out of a playoff spot? How real are the hot starts of Victor Scott II and Matthew Liberatore?

Is the MLB covering up their call against Victor Scott II? Andy and Brenden recap game one against the Pirates, and preview their matchup against Paul Skenes. Will Carroll joins the show to talk why Ivan Herrera hasn't returned from injury yet. No chance a Triple Crown has The Preakness Under The Bus. Gregg Popovich has The Sweetest Thing in Sports.

Brenden Schaeffer discusses the unbelievable St. Louis Cardinals doubleheader sweep of the Mets on Sunday at Busch Stadium as Michael McGreevy put the team on his back in Game 2. Victor Scott II made one of the best catches you'll ever see to rob a home run from Juan Soto. Erick Fedde and Andre Pallante walked way too many guys. Will the Cardinals look more closely at their rotation spots with clear candidates for promotions into the starting five, or will it be business as usual?It was a potentially season-shifting day at Busch, so we'll talk about the implications as the Cards pull to within three games of .500 out of nowhere.Follow this podcast feed for daily Cardinals coverage all year!

The St. Louis Cardinals take 2 of 3 from the New York Mets, one of the best teams in the NL, including a doubleheader sweep. Michael McGreevy was excellent in Game 2, should he stay up with the Major League roster? Victor Scott II continues to amaze, while Jordan Walker and Nolan Gorman's struggles continue. How can the Cardinals level up their roster as they hope to contend in 2026 and beyond?

On April 30, 2025, the Cincinnati Reds faced the St. Louis Cardinals in a split doubleheader at Great American Ball Park, prompted by the postponement of the previous night's game due to heavy rain and severe weather threats. The Reds, riding a five-game winning streak and holding a 16-13 record, aimed to maintain their momentum in the National League Central. However, the doubleheader proved challenging, resulting in a sweep by the Cardinals and exposing areas of concern for Cincinnati. In Game 1, starting at 12:40 p.m. ET, the Reds fell 6-0. Brady Singer, Cincinnati's starter, pitched six scoreless innings, allowing five hits and striking out eight without a walk. Despite his effort, the Reds' offense was stifled by Cardinals' pitcher Miles Mikolas, managing only five hits and no runs. The game remained scoreless until the ninth, when Reds reliever Alexis Díaz struggled, surrendering three consecutive home runs to Victor Scott II, Lars Nootbaar, and Masyn Winn, who hit his second of the game. Díaz allowed five runs, ballooning his ERA and drawing criticism from fans on X for his lack of command, with some calling his pitches “batting practice.” Game 2, starting at 6:40 p.m. ET, saw the Reds lose 9-1. Chase Petty, a 22-year-old top pitching prospect, made his MLB debut as the 27th man for the doubleheader. Petty, called up from Triple-A Louisville, struggled, giving up five runs over four innings. The Cardinals capitalized early, and the Reds' offense again faltered against Steven Matz, scoring just one run. Posts on X highlighted fan disappointment, noting the Reds' combined one run across both games and Petty's rough debut, though some remained hopeful for his future. The doubleheader exposed offensive inconsistencies and bullpen weaknesses, particularly Díaz's meltdown. Injuries also loomed large: outfielder Austin Hays was sidelined with a hamstring issue, and infielder Jeimer Candelario was placed on the 10-day IL with a back injury, retroactive to April 28. Tyler Callihan was called up to fill the gap. Despite the losses, the Reds (16-15) had a chance to split the four-game series in the finale. Under new manager Terry Francona, the team's young core, including Elly De La Cruz and Matt McLain, remains a focal point for optimism as they navigate a grueling 17-game stretch without an off day until May 12.

Post-Dispatch podcasts page: https://go.stltoday.com/0hfn43 Please consider subscribing: https://go.stltoday.com/9aigz5 While typing the introduction to a brand new episode of Best Podcast in Baseball, I'm sitting in the press box at Clover Park in Port St. Lucie, Florida, having just watched rookie Michael McGreevy carve through the Mets lineup, pitch around two errors, and finish his impressive spring trianing with five scoreless innings. Meanwhile, down in Jupiter, Florida, Victor Scott II has homered. Again. McGreevy and Scott personify the decision the Cardinals are going to have to make weighing whether it is better for their future to have a deserving player sitting in St. Louis or playing in Memphis. That's the crux of quesitons facing the Cardinals as they crystallize their roster before leaving Florida for the start of the regular season and opening day Thursday against Minnesota at Busch Stadium.  The final Best Podcast in Baseball from Florida centers on that choice -- sitting in the majors, playing in the minors -- and what is best for the players, what is best for the team, and what is a true reflection of the promised "transition" and youth movement? How they act upon the strong springs by McGreevy and Scott will say more than any quote from the Cardinals. Post-Dispatch sports writers Derrick Goold and Jeff Gordon explore the final Cardinals' roster choices and much more much in the sixth episode of the 13th season of the Best Podcast in Baseball. Gordon also provides a forecast for the reception the Cardinals will receive upon returning to St. Louis.

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.
