The St. Louis Cardinals made massive changes midseason unlike them and the staff of Redbird Rants will join together to share their opinions.

Today, Sunday, July 15 will host the start of a new era for the St. Louis Cardinals as Mike Shildt takes over as manager of the St. Louis Cardinals; at least in the interim. Based on this sudden change- something we support- we will host a special live podcast to share our opinions.

Today’s podcast will record live at 2pm central time and can be heard on Blog Talk Radio.
