Chip Caray and his son Stefan will announce the St. Louis Cardinals Spring Breakout Game against the Miami Marlins together.

The St. Louis Cardinals are apparently considering dropping Andre Pallante from their rotation in favor of Michael McGreevy. McGreevy should make the rotation, but it is Steven Matz or Miles Mikolas who should lose their spots. The Cardinals are crazy.

Luken Baker was a forgotten piece of the 2025 Cardinals, but his power, paired with Alec Burleson's struggles, may be putting him into the mix for a regular DH role with the big league club.

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Masyn Winn was selling out for power early in spring training, but he has learned that doing so isn't the best way for him to succeed.

Victor Scott II has gone from fighting for a major league roster spot to a frontrunner for the center fielder job. The Cardinals could ship Michael Siani to the White Sox if they want to clear up the job for Scott.

The St. Louis Cardinals' Spring Breakout roster is highlighted by top prospects JJ Wetherholt, Quinn Mathews, Thomas Saggese, and Jimmy Crooks.

In the deciding Game 7, Joe Medwick slid hard into third base. When returning to the field, the Detroit crowd threw bottles and produce at Medwick. In order to avoid riots and to keep Medwick safe, the Commissioner removed him from the game!

With 2025 Spring Training kicking off, the Cardinals will not look much different than the prior season. This has been noticed leaguewide and by the media.

Jordan Walker tripped over a sprinkler head in spring training and injured his knee, but the St. Louis Cardinals outfielder appears to have avoided serious injury.

Cardinals fans are expected to be patient with the front office. But the front office is not patient with their operations.

The St. Louis Cardinals are ranked near the bottom of the major leagues in offensive production through Spring Training so far in 2025.
J.T. Buchheit|
The St. Louis Cardinals are a little over three weeks away from Opening Day, and their Opening Day roster projection is still rather murky. A potential Jordan Walker injury may open the door for Matt Koperniak, and Michael McGreevy is fighting for a spot.

You will probably have to wait until next year to bet on baseball in Missouri after Secretary of State Denny Hoskins rejected the proposal that came through for sports betting.
Cliff Williams|
Jordan Walker is expected to be a regular in the St. Louis Cardinals lineup in 2025, but that could go awry after an injury during spring training.

Lars Nootbaar, Nolan Gorman, and Brendan Donovan should take advantage of Major League Baseball's new Automated Ball-Strike system once it's implemented in the majors.
Thomas Gauvain|
The St. Louis Cardinals are embarking on an organizational retool, and the timing couldn't be better for a shift to Cardinals legend Albert Pujols as the team's manager.
J.T. Buchheit|
Pitchers are usually ahead of hitters in Spring Training, and these players raised expectations with great exhibition numbers but ultimately could not keep the momentum going.

Jose Quintana has signed a deal to return to the NL Central, having pitched very well for the Cardinals after being acquired during the 2022 season.
