St. Louis Cardinals’ pitching prospect Tekoah Roby entered the 2025 season with a cloud of “what if” hanging over him. Blessed with electric stuff but plagued by injuries in previous years, his health and consistency were the primary questions.
The July 31 trade deadline will be looming large when the visiting St. Louis Cardinals begin a three-game series against the rival Chicago Cubs on Friday.
The Nolan Arenado trade rumors never completely went away, and one American League contender could make another run at the St. Louis Cardinals third baseman.

Might be a tougher year than normal and certainly tougher than last season
I was reading Fangraphs top prospect list for the Cardinals, and if I may rant for a bit, I think it is absurd that they are releasing a team prospect list in late June and for three other teams, July (and maybe August for the last team!). I don’t actually care that I don’t get to read their thoughts before the season. That honestly doesn’t matter to...
The ascent of JJ Wetherholt, the St. Louis Cardinals ‘ prized infield prospect, continues its rapid trajectory. He has been selected for the prestigious MLB All-Star Futures Game.

The Cardinals are hoping their offense rejoins them as the road trip continues into Chicago
Game Result
The Cardinals continue a string of being shut out, this time by a 5-0 score. In a game where the Cardinals were 1-9 with RISP, the process and the outcome was the supreme example of the outcome of providing “youngry” players runway. A series of inexperienced player mistakes and poor...

Talk amongst yrselves
I have plenty of ideas for new articles brewing but time has escaped me this week. For various good reasons I didn't get around to writing and implementing one of these articles ideas ...which is fine I guess? There seems to be a day game today. Well yes there is, and it starts at 11:35am!
So tell me, what is on your mind this particular morning? Let's hear it!
And let us not get swept today by the basement dwelling Pirates, please!
I will...
Coming off his best start in a decade, St. Louis Cardinals ace Sonny Gray will try to deliver another quality effort when he faces the host Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday afternoon.

Tonight’s game was one to forget. The Cardinals had plenty of chances against Paul Skenes, but came up empty each time. They stranded 10 runners tonight and couldn’t come through against a pitcher they’ve been able to solve the last few times.
They almost broke through in the fourth inning, when Pedro Pages singled to left field. But Pop Warner foolishly sent Willson Contreras home from third, where he was cut down by former Cardinal Tommy Pham.
The...

From the lineup to the pitching staff, the Cardinals need to address their lefty options
As the St. Louis Cardinals continue to push towards the postseason despite the lack of effort put into the acquiring talent for the Major League roster, there are still some holes that need to be addressed. If you go to the Cardinals roster page right now, you will see an interesting configuration of positions and handedness.
Currently, the Cardinals...

The Cardinals have managed to keep themselves in contention and continue to watch young player's progress
It’s July 1st! So, of course I’m going to talk about the trade deadline at some point in this piece. Save your snark commenters I will also provide some of that in depth analysis you guys know and love as to separate me from “Friday man.”
Assessing the first half
Back in Spring Training after attempting to trade Nolan Arenado and having deals fall...

A brutal start against the last place Pirates
Well that sucked.
The Cardinals (47-39) absolutely stunk up the joint Monday night at PNC Park. Not only did they get shutout by the lowly Pirates (36-50) by a score of 7-0, but St. Louis flirted with getting no-hit until Victor Scott broke up Andrew Heaney’s bid with two outs to go in the sixth inning.
Andrew Heaney looked like a Cy Young winner Monday night, throwing 6.2 shutout innings. Heaney struck out seven...

Get rid of that Monday mania with a podcast made for you!
Happy Monday Cardinals fans! The team is a season high 9 games over .500 and staring down another important series against the Cubs this weekend. The Cardinals continue to inch closer in the standings to first place and after a slight slowdown at the beginning of the month the team appears to be back on track and pushing the division once again!
We addressed Matthew Liberatore’s workload, Oli Marmol’s status...
We have an exciting NL Central battle as the St. Louis Cardinals in the opening game of a three-game series. The Cardinals are third in the NL Central with a 47-38 record up to this point and will have righty Erick Fedde on the bump.

Cardinals hope to keep winning.
There are some series previews were I genuinely feel like I’m informing some people who the Cardinals are facing. I am at the least informing myself. I am a baseball fan, but it’s probably more accurate to say I’m a Cardinals fan. Because I really don’t pay attention to the rest of the league. Especially since a fantasy league escaped from my grasp this year, so I really have no reason to follow anybody else. ...

Your weekly schedule for June 30 through July 6
The St. Louis Cardinals just wrapped a homestand and now ship out for a six-game road swing—first to Pittsburgh to take on the 34-50 Pirates. Then it’s off to Wrigley for a classic holiday weekend series against the Cubs. If the Cards want to prove they belong in the postseason conversation, this week would be a good time to start making their case.
Here is the tentative schedule for June 30-July 6:
