Meet Me At Musial: A St. Louis Cardinals Podcast

With Allen (@amedlock1) still involved with the Rangers, Daniel (@C70) talks it over with blogger and author Rich Bray (@remembirds). While they eventually tackle the current team, the two spend most of their time talking Cardinal history as set out in Rich's Book, The Trades That Made The St. Louis Cardinals. From Rogers Hornsby to Colby Rasmus, the two talk about some of the biggest deals in the history of the Redbirds. Why was the Mark McGwire deal such a big deal? How would we remember that 2011 trade if it wasn't for the miracle comeback? Why are there no 2020s trades in the book? Plenty of great stuff for those that love the deep history of the Cardinals!

With Coach Medlock (@amedlock1) still tied up with the high school season, Daniel (@C70) gets a chance to talk it over with his good friend and now MLB.com writer and High Lord of the Prospects Kyle Reis (@kyler416).

How much fun is Springfield going to be? The guys cap it all off with a little discussion about upcoming Star Wars projects. It's a long one but a good one! Learn more about your ad choices.

The St. Louis Cardinals have played (and won) a baseball game so all is right with the world. After guesting over at Talking About Birds (@talkingaboutbirds.bsky.social) the day before the season starts, Daniel (@C70) brings Nate and Ben over to his side to break down all the excitement. Using The Cardinal Six game that the three played at the end of TAB as a guideline, the guys talk about the excitement of JJ Wetherholt, the questions around the bullpen, the use (or lack thereof) of ABS, Nate's namesake playing left, and so much more. It's a rollicking ride that rivals yesterday's sixth for craziness! (Also, it didn't make the episode but the game wound up Nate 9, Ben 6, Daniel 1.)
