The Dustin May Decision Bloom Can't Get Wrong

This Stat Should End the Matthew Liberatore Experiment…

Matthew Liberatore just got knocked out after recording five outs in Kansas City, and Bernie says the real problem is not the pitcher. It is the people who keep sending him to the mound. This is the case for why the Cardinals rotation situation has crossed the line from patience into something else entirely. Bernie breaks down the brutal numbers behind Liberatore's collapse, explains why the popular "Cardinals win when he starts" defense falls apart under scrutiny, and asks why young arms like Hunter Dobbins and Quinn Mathews keep waiting while a struggling veteran gets the ball. Plus a historical look at the long line of Cardinals left-handed starters that this season is starting to echo. 🔥 Buy two months, get one free at BlueChew with code ‘BERNIE’ bluechew.com 🔗 Visit: https://stlsportscentral.com Learn more about your ad choices.

What Chaim Bloom Did This Offseason Is Quietly Absurd!

The Cardinals own the sixth-best record in baseball while spending less than almost everyone, and Bernie thinks fans are missing just how rare that really is. Here is the full breakdown of how a young, low-budget roster turned into one of the most entertaining teams in the National League. Bernie makes the complete case for Chaim Bloom's first season at the controls, from the bargain Dustin May signing to the midseason roster moves that woke up a slumping offense. He explains why the "they haven't won anything" argument falls apart, why this team is years ahead of schedule, and what the future could look like in 2027 and beyond. 🚗 Presented by Schicker Automotive Group https://www.schickerautomotive.com/ 🔗 Visit: https://stlsportscentral.com The World Cup is HERE. ⚽ Catch every match at The Key STL Burger Bar & Boogie in the Grand Center Arts District: cold drinks, the best smashburgers in town, and an unreal atmosphere.
