Phillies Series Recap: One Chip Challenge, Sosa's Revenge, Errors Galore, & Salvaging the Finale
In tonight's episode we will be taking a closer look at the recent series loss to the Phillies. Despite a lot of frustrations from the games there were quite a few positives and other takeaways. But before we get to all of that, RJ lost a bet and had to suffer through the 1 Chip Challenge.While he was busy handling the heat from that we cover Game 1 in which Sosa blasted a 3 run shot off Miles early in the game wound up being the difference maker. It did not help the offense that we are currently without Contreras, Noot & Donny (a late scratch with a stiff neck) but as usual Nola continued his dominance. Moving on to Game 2, Sonny had issues early and was knocked from the game and the offense wasn't able to take advantange of a freak comebacker that drove Suarez from the game after the 2nd inning and made the Phillies turn to their bullpen early.In an all important game 3 the offense was able to break out and avoid the sweep with contributions throughout the lineup including a clutch hit by Gorman in the 10th. Helsley sealed the deal for his league leading 19th save of the season. A big issue this season that continued this series was the errors that loom large. Without them this game is 4-0 in 9.Finally, we find ourselves now in sole possession of the last Wild Card spot. Next up we have a stretch of series that are winnable. The team must take advantage of these games to build a buffer between us and the other competition.Support the Show.Thanks for listening!

Cubs Series Recap: Keep Out The Brooms, Bullpen Struggles, Walker AAA Updates, & More
Thanks for joining us for this Memorial Day Weekend episode and our thoughts are with those servicemen and women that have lost their lives in service to protect the freedoms of this wonderful country. Today we will be recapping the recent 2 game sweep of our rivals, the Chicago Cubs. We start off quickly covering the postponed 1st game of the series which may have ultimately set the tone for things as it pushed back the start of their ace this season, Imanaga and gave us a real opportunity to set the tone the next day. Moving on to Game 2, we highlight the overall performance of the offense in what was easily the most exciting game of the season for fans capped with a 4 run eighth with the help of a timely pitch hit RBI from Carpenter and highlight reel slide from Burleson. We also talk about the bullpens cracks that began to appear and bled into the next game.For Game 3, we find ourselves talking heavily about Cardinal Killer Happ and our former MVP Goldy who were the real stars of the game. We touch on Sonny having to come out early despite a stellar line to that point and the ambiguity surrounding what may or may not have happened with the rain delays and what not. We also dive deeper into Helsleys recent issues and if its possible he's tipping pitches. Finally we take a look down at the farm to check in on Walker and see how he's doing while also shifting focus to another important upcoming NL Central series on the road against the Reds.Support the Show.Thanks for listening!

Exploring the Cardinals' Offensive Challenges, Pitching Evolution, & More With Blake Newberry
Unpack the enigma behind the St. Louis Cardinals' hitting slump with special guest Blake Newberry of Viva El Birdos & The Cardinal Nation as we dissect this curveball in their offensive strategy. This can't-miss conversation takes a deeper look at what might be impacting star sluggers like Arenado and Goldschmidt. Dive headfirst into the technical trenches with a detailed analysis of Lars bat speed and Walker's promising power. Our chat with Blake not only showcases these players' potential but also zooms out to examine the pivotal role of player development in the AAA leagues. The confluence of analytics and skill refinement is painting the future of baseball, and we're giving you a front-row seat to the intricate dance of mechanics, strategy, and physical prowess shaping tomorrow's champions.Switch up the pace as we change gears to the mound, where the Cardinals' pitching strategy echoes a league-wide evolution, favoring a diverse mix of sliders and off-speed pitches over fastballs. We dissect the Liberatore's situation along with his pitching style, debate the Cardinals' rotation options, and peak into the crystal ball of potential trades and rising prospects. And to close out the game, we step up to the plate with draft predictions, considering how the Cardinals' offensive needs could call the shots in their future lineup.Support the Show.Thanks for listening!
