Cardinals News
The St. Louis Cardinals will officially finish with a losing record this year, meaning they'll have consecutive losing full seasons for the first time since 1959, not the kind of history they were hoping to make any time soon.
The Cardinals have openings in next season's rotation and Gordon Graceffo could follow in Kyle Leahy's footsteps to take that spot.
The St. Louis Cardinals haven't offered outfielder Jordan Walker an extension yet, and Chaim Bloom's decision looks smarter with Walker's major issues at the plate late in the season.
Cardinals rumors
Cardinals prospects
The St. Louis Cardinals had a loaded Double-A roster this year, but it fell short in the winner-takes-all Texas League Championship game on Wednesday due to their own mistakes. Rainiel Rodriguez and Liam Doyle looked awesome.
Leo Bernal was added to MLB Pipeline's top 100 prospects list, and if he's added to Baseball America's or ESPN's, he'll be eligble to win the St. Louis Cardinals a PPI draft pick in 2027 if he wins Rookie of the Year.
The St. Louis Cardinals just got an A+ grade from Baseball America for the state of their farm system, and incredible feat considering how bad things were just two years ago. They are loaded right now and look ready to contend for a long time.

Attendance at Busch Stadium declined again this year, but not nearly as much as past years. St. Louis Cardinals fans have hope in the future, but are cautious about going all in until they see more.
