Maria Chavez+FollowWhy the Cardinals need Lucas Giolito nowLucas Giolito is still on the market, and it’s wild that a proven starter with a 3.41 ERA in his last healthy season hasn’t been scooped up yet. The Cardinals have built up some young pitching depth, but let’s be real—injuries happen, and a steady veteran arm could make all the difference. Giolito’s experience could stabilize the rotation, mentor the younger guys, and even become a valuable trade chip if things don’t pan out. Would you want the Cards to take a shot on Giolito, or stick with the youth movement? Let’s hear your take! #Sports #Baseball #STLCards00Share
Cassandra Reed+FollowWhy the Cardinals should lock in Burleson nowAlec Burleson has quietly become one of the Cardinals’ most reliable bats, and there’s real buzz about locking him up with a contract extension before he really takes off. With the team shopping big names like Nolan Arenado and eyeing a rebuild, Burleson could be the steady presence St. Louis needs—both on the field and in the clubhouse. Early extensions can be risky, but they’ve paid off big for other teams. Would you commit to Burleson now, or wait and see if he keeps trending up? Let’s hear your take, Cardinals fans! #Sports #Baseball #STLCards00Share
jillian59+FollowCardinals Eyeing Switch-Pitcher Sensation?Redbird Nation, the Brendan Donovan trade rumors just got wild! Word is the Mariners are dangling Jurrangelo Cijntje—the ambidextrous phenom who can deal heat from both sides of the mound. This isn’t your average prospect; Cijntje’s a legit unicorn, flashing 98 mph as a righty and solid stuff as a lefty. If the Cards pull this off, it could be the most intriguing move of the offseason. Would you trade Donnie Baseball for a switch-pitching starter? #Sports #Baseball #STLCards00Share
jillian59+FollowBrendan Donovan’s future has St. Louis buzzingBrendan Donovan’s name is everywhere in MLB trade talks, but there’s a real chance he could stick around in St. Louis.

Donovan’s ability to play all over the field and his leadership in the clubhouse make him a key piece for a young team looking to rebuild. Would you rather see the Cards cash in on a big trade, or keep Donovan as a cornerstone for the future? Let’s hear your take! #Sports #Baseball #STLCards10Share
Andrea Castillo+FollowRedbirds Could Fuel D-Backs’ Bregman PushHere’s a wild one for Cards Nation: If the Snakes want to land Alex Bregman but keep Ketel Marte, they might need to offload Eduardo Rodriguez’s contract. That’s where the Redbirds come in—St. Louis could eat E-Rod’s deal for a juicy prospect haul, speeding up the rebuild. Not flashy, but think of it as the MLB’s version of an NBA salary dump. Would you take on E-Rod for a top-100 prospect? #Sports #Baseball #STLCards00Share
Tammy Sellers+FollowRainiel Rodriguez Joins Elite Prospect RanksCardinals fans, get hyped! The Redbirds’ own Rainiel Rodriguez just put himself in the same conversation as some of baseball’s top young stars.

With his name now alongside legends like Trout and Tatis Jr. at this age, the buzz is real. If he sticks at catcher, the sky’s the limit for this kid. The future in St. Louis looks bright! #Sports #Baseball #STLCards00Share
jillian59+FollowCardinals fans, is Jimmy Crooks the answer?St. Louis is buzzing about the catcher position for 2026, and all eyes are on Jimmy Crooks. After a tough MLB debut, the Cardinals’ coaching staff still believes Crooks could be their everyday guy behind the plate. With Iván Herrera returning from injury and veterans like Pedro Pagés in the mix, the team has options—but Crooks’ strong arm and leadership with pitchers have really turned heads. His Triple-A numbers show promise, too. Do you think Crooks is ready to take over, or should the Cards stick with experience? Let’s hear your take! #Sports #Baseball #STLCards00Share
Cassandra Reed+FollowWhy Brandon Clarke could be a game-changer for St. LouisBrandon Clarke’s arrival is shaking up the Cardinals’ pitching future. This lefty brings an electric fastball that hits 100 mph and a sweeper pitch that’s already drawing comparisons to the best in baseball. But here’s the twist: Clarke’s raw talent comes with big question marks—command issues, injury history, and a need for a reliable third pitch. The Cardinals’ new player development team faces a real test: can they turn Clarke’s potential into a true front-line starter? If they succeed, it could fast-track the team’s rebuild. What do you think—will Clarke be the next big thing or just another what-if? #Sports #Baseball #STLCards10Share
Catherine Reeves+FollowCardinals prospect Brycen Mautz’s offseason leapBrycen Mautz didn’t just rest this offseason—he reinvented himself. After a tough 2024, he worked with Tread Athletics to overhaul his mechanics and mindset, leading to a breakout year with Double-A Springfield and earning Cardinals Minor League Pitcher of the Year. What’s really interesting is the Cardinals’ shift: they’re now embracing outside training programs like Tread and Driveline, a big change from their old ways. With Mautz’s velocity up and his command sharper than ever, he’s on the fast track to the majors. How do you feel about teams letting prospects seek outside help? Could this be the key to unlocking more talent? #Sports #Baseball #STLCards00Share
