Podcasts about Yadier Molina

Tom Ackerman and Bernie Miklasz break down the rise of mid-tier college football teams like Indiana and Vanderbilt and what their consistency means for the sport. They debate Missouri's playoff path after the Auburn win and whether their inconsistent passing game and quarterback play will derail hopes against upcoming road opponents. On the baseball side, Bernie says the Cardinals need a true power hitter and lays out possible avenues through trades or drafting. The conversation wraps with thoughts on the future of Yadier Molina

Tom Ackerman checks in from Bloomington and talks with Chaim Bloom about the Dodgers sweep of the Brewers and Shohei Ohtani's continued dominance. They look at the playoff chances of the Blue Jays and Mariners before diving deep into the Cardinals pitching pipeline. Bloom gives an update on Iván Herrera's elbow procedure and his plan to move back to catching full time. They touch on current injuries, the World Baseball Classic, and finish with a brief note on Yadier Molina's interest in a future on the coaching or management side.

Post-Dispatch podcasts page: https://go.stltoday.com/0hfn43 Please consider subscribing: https://go.stltoday.com/9aigz5 It's been a minute since a brand-new Best Podcast in Baseball and there's a lot to catch up on. For the first time in 18 years, the Cardinals have a new president of baseball operations, and for the first time in even longer they're talking about a team-building plan that doesn't include promises of aiming to contend for a World Series championship. That will likely mean an active winter of trades. At the same time, two prominent former Cardinals, Albert Pujols and Yadier Molina, are throwing their names in the ring for manager vacancies elsewhere, with at least two teams (and likely a third soon) entertaining Pujols as a strong candidate for their open position. And, in the past week, a former Cardinals manager Mike Shildt retired from the position with San Diego, spurring conversation about why he left both jobs abruptly and resurfacing reasons reported in the Post-Dispatch and elsewhere after his sudden firing in 2021. Former players and old conversations all swirl together to invite the question on whether to truly move in a fresh direction did the Cardinals need a stretch like this that brings closure to the past and signals the new era. Kevin Wheeler, of KMOX/104.1 FM, joins Derrick Goold for a (long overdue) new episode of BPIB to discuss that and more. The "just hanging on" kitten plays a prominent role in the conversation. In its 13th season as one of the first and most widely heard podcasts on baseball and the Cardinals, the Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored weekly by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.

In a shortened edition of Sports Open Line, Matt Pauley discusses the rumors of Yadier Molina potentially joining the Cardinals' coaching staff, and then hear audio from Blues Head Coach Jim Montgomery as they prepare for the Blues' first game of the season.

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?

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.

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.

Post-Dispatch podcasts page: https://go.stltoday.com/0hfn43 Please consider subscribing: https://go.stltoday.com/9aigz5 From near his perch at Busch Stadium, where he calls games for the Cardinals' Spanish language broadcast, Polo Ascensio surveys the style of game, the style of play, and, yes, the style of his calls for the 2025 Cardinals. The nine-game home stand did not lack for some compelling games -- though evidently there is some debate on how entertaining the opening innings of the Cardinals' 2-1 victory against the Dodgers was -- and that had to be reflected in the calls from all of the broadcast booths. Ahead of Toronto completing a series sweep of the Cardinals, Ascensio spoke with Post-Dispatch baseball writer Derrick Goold about those calls, about the enthusiasm and inspiration he brings to them as well as whether this team has made such energy easier with its style of play. Ascensio also discusses the catching history of the Cardinals and the catching present, with background on how two members of the current team, Willson Contreras and Ivan Herrera, signed with the Cardinals specifically because of their fondness for former Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina. The podcast explores why Contreras stayed with the Cardinals when the team, pivoting toward youth, offered to trade him to a contender, and there a conversation about Herrera's future at catcher. Ascensio's broadcasts with former catcher and former Cardinals coach Bengie Molina are available for every home game on WIJR/880 AM La Tremenda. There is hope from many parties in and around the Cardinals that the broadcasts will expand beyond home games, especially if the club continues to contend late into the season.

In his deeply reported work, Miller talks with managers, both current and past, to map the changing landscape of the role as front offices and analytics become more dominant and a perception grips the game that, as Miller writes it so well, lineups are being written for the manager not by the manager. With BPIB host and baseball writer Derrick Goold, Miller discusses the evolution of managers in the game from Sparky to Tony to Bochy, the traits that make a successful manager, and also how those traits have changed and adapted to a game driven more and more by data and run like the big business it is. The two baseball writers also explore what happens to game if, as one executive told Miller in his book, the hiring practices and analytics used in the game leave the majors "with a very homogenous group of managers." The managerial aspirations of Albert Pujols, Yadier Molina, and others are explored as a way to avoid that. Miller has covered baseball for the New York Times, Bleacher Report, and many other outlets, and his book shows the depth of his understanding in the game and access to some of the great managers. He watches a Yankee game at the Boone house as Aaron manages; he spends time with Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts on the job and with Hall of Fame-bound manager Dusty Baker at the vineyard. Miller also talks with former Cardinals manager Mike Matheny and gains welcome perspective on his tenure during a changing time for the role. Miller's book is available now. On Amazon. At a local independent bookstore like St. Louis' Left Bank Books. The Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a weekly production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.
