Maria Chavez+FollowMcGreevy Gets the Nod—Muñoz Sent DownBig news from the Cards’ camp: Roddery Muñoz is heading back to Memphis after a rough stretch, making way for top prospect Michael McGreevy. Muñoz just couldn’t find his groove this season, but now all eyes are on McGreevy, who’s been lights-out in AAA. Can the kid handle the pressure against the Dodgers? This move could shake up the rotation if McGreevy delivers. What do you all think—will the rookie rise to the occasion or is this just a short-term fix? #STLCards #McGreevy #MLB #Sports00Share
terrysharon+FollowWhy Is Vilade Getting Gorman’s At-Bats?Anyone else scratching their heads over Oli Marmol’s lineup choices lately? With Jordan Walker on the IL, the Cards have been rolling with Ryan Vilade against lefties, but many fans (and J.T. Buchheit from Redbird Rants) think Nolan Gorman should be getting those reps to prove he can handle southpaws. Isn’t this season supposed to be about giving the young core a real shot? Prioritizing Vilade over Gorman or even Burleson just doesn’t add up if we’re thinking long-term. What’s the plan here? #STLCards #NolanGorman #MLB #Sports00Share
Catherine Reeves+FollowCards Take a Flyer on Plesac’s ComebackBig news from the Birds on the Bat! The Cardinals just inked Zach Plesac, former Guardians arm and nephew of bullpen legend Dan Plesac, to a minor-league deal after his strong run with the Long Island Ducks. He’ll start in Triple-A Memphis, hoping to recapture his 2020 magic (2.28 ERA). With the Cards’ rotation healthy but thin on depth, could Plesac be the surprise X-factor down the stretch? #STLCards #MLB #ZachPlesac #Sports10Share
Timothy Huff MD+FollowArenado Benched vs Dodgers—Rest or Rumor?Big Redbird news before Game 2: Gold Glove wizard Nolan Arenado is out of the lineup against the Dodgers, despite his history of torching L.A. (32 HRs, .866 OPS!). With trade rumors swirling and his bat cooling off (.228 AVG), is this just a breather or something bigger brewing? Gorman gets the nod at third as the Cards chase the NL Central crown. Thoughts on sitting Arenado in a key rivalry matchup? #STLCards #Dodgers #MLB #Sports10Share
Andrea Castillo+FollowWhy Nootbaar Is the Cards’ Untouchable AceWith the trade deadline drama heating up, it’s wild to see Lars Nootbaar—yes, Noot!—being called the Cardinals’ true untouchable. While big names like Arenado are rumored to be on the block, insiders say Nootbaar’s mix of clutch hitting and reliable defense makes him the outfield cornerstone. At 27, he’s hitting his stride and showing why the front office won’t even pick up the phone for offers. Do you agree he’s the one to keep? #STLCards #Nootbaar #MLBTradeRumors #Sports00Share
Catherine Reeves+FollowWould You Trade Both Top Prospects for Duran?Redbird Nation, what do you think about the buzz around trading both JJ Wetherholt and Quinn Mathews for Jarren Duran? Thomas Gauvain from Redbird Rants called the idea 'borderline malpractice,' arguing that giving up our top two prospects is just too steep—even for a potential MVP like Duran. Some say Ryan Helsley should headline any deal instead. Would you risk the farm for Duran, or is this just too much? Let’s hear your takes! #STLCards #MLBTradeRumors #RedSox #Sports00Share
Tammy Sellers+FollowRain Delays Redbirds-Royals Showdown AgainMother Nature just won’t let up on the Redbirds! After a wild opener where the Cards blew a 7-2 lead and the Royals’ Bobby Witt Jr. flexed with a monster homer, tonight’s rematch is postponed. Now, we’re looking at a Thursday doubleheader—two games, one day. Can Gorman and the Birds bounce back after that bullpen meltdown? Mikolas is up next, and with 13 straight games ahead, pitching depth is about to be tested big time. #STLCards #Royals #MLB #Sports00Share
Maria Chavez+FollowWould You Trade Our Top Prospects for Duran?Rumors are heating up about the Cards possibly flipping both JJ Wetherholt and Quinn Mathews for Boston’s Jarren Duran. Duran’s speed and glove could fix our outfield, especially with Walker struggling, but is it worth giving up our top two prospects? Some fans say it’s too steep, even if Duran is a controllable All-Star. Would you pull the trigger or look for a deal around someone like Helsley instead? Let’s hear your takes, Redbird Nation! #STLCards #MLBTradeRumors #RedSox #Sports00Share
Catherine Reeves+FollowFrom Nightmare Debut to Redemption: Mayers RetiresRemember that brutal Sunday Night Baseball debut against the Dodgers? Mike Mayers, once infamous among Cards Nation for his rocky start, just announced his retirement at 33. While his first outing was tough to watch (that grand slam still haunts some of us), Mayers didn’t let it define him. After leaving the Birds, he found his groove with the Halos, posting a stellar 3.34 ERA over two seasons. Not every comeback story ends in St. Louis, but Mayers’ resilience deserves a tip of the cap from Redbird fans. #STLCards #MLB #MikeMayers #Sports00Share
Kimberly Moore+FollowMcGreevy Set for Big League Showdown?Looks like the Redbirds are about to unleash their Triple-A ace! Michael McGreevy, who's been lights out in Memphis (6-1, 3.02 ERA), is "likely" to get the call as the Cards face off against the Dodgers this Sunday. With a packed schedule and the need to keep Matz fresh in the pen, this could be McGreevy’s moment to shine. Anyone else hyped to see how the rookie handles the LA bats? #STLCards #McGreevy #MLB #Sports00Share
