Bernie's Done Biting His Tongue About the DeWitts | Bernie Miklasz + Randy Karraker

Is Bill DeWitt III really the "nepo baby" his critics claim, or has he quietly earned the most powerful seat in Cardinals baseball? Bernie Miklasz unloads on the front office shakeup and reveals the behind-the-scenes role DeWitt III played in pulling off one of the biggest trades in recent franchise history. In this week's conversation, Bernie Miklasz joins Randy Karraker on STL Sports Central to break down the St. Louis Cardinals leadership transition, with Bill DeWitt III named CEO and Anuk Karunaratne promoted to president of business operations. Bernie makes his case for why the criticism misses the mark, shares classic stories about Bill DeWitt Jr.'s baseball instincts, and explains what the change means for the Cardinals' approach to star players and big contracts. The guys also dig into Paul Goldschmidt's incredible Yankees resurgence since Aaron Judge went down, the truth behind the Cardinals' recent slide, and whether Busch Stadium can become a real home field advantage again with the red-hot Marlins coming to town. Plus, Bernie weighs in on the Blues trading Jordan Kyrou to Washington, why he thinks Doug Armstrong won the deal as the Alex Steen era begins, and the USMNT's electric World Cup run heading into the knockout rounds.
