Seeing Red Episode 170: Brendan Donovan Traded to the Mariners!
Seeing Red
The trade we've all been waiting for finally happened: The Cardinals traded Brendan Donovan. He'll be in Seattle, and the Cardinals got a pitcher who throws with both arms as well as a bunch of draft stuff. Bernie Miklasz was unable to be with us today, so Will Leitch solos, talking about what the trade means in the short and long term. Because there is no Bernie, this is, of course, the words episode of Seeing Red ever. But we still wanted to get it out to you. We'll be back weekly when Spring Training gets going (and Will gets back from the Super Bowl). Music as always by the great The...

Seeing Red Episode 164: What Do Cardinals Fans Need to See?
Seeing Red
OK, look, we got a full episode again, it's amazing what you can do through basic Zoom. We also did it on video, which was almost kind of weird! Anyway, Bernie Miklasz and Will Leitch talk about Bernie's big Jordan Walker scoop from last week, and then they dig into, with your help, What Will Bring The Fans Back? What do fans expect? What do they need to see? This is what this episode's about. It's a good one, we think! Music as always by the great The Sundogs.

Seeing Red Episode 163: Looking to the Past, Rather Than the Present
Seeing Red
So we're still having some issues with the Cast podcast app, which is why this show is (once again) shorter, though it is longer than last week. We'll just do Zoom moving forward--annoying. Anyway, Bernie Miklasz and Will Leitch get into all sorts of good stuff, but we missed a whole fun Story Hour With Bernie in which we heard about him watching the Ozzie "Go Crazy Folks" homer with Bill Bidwill. Argh. Music as always by the great The Sundogs.

Seeing Red Episode 162: What's Next for Nolan Gorman and Jordan Walker?
Seeing Red
WE ARE SORRY: CAST ATE THE FINAL 40 MINUTES OF OUR PODCAST TODAY. Here are the first six minutes. Very frustrating. Below is what it WOULD have been about. CAST is the equivalent of Cardinals baseball right now. Anyway, have a great Labor Day. As the wheels start to come off the 2025 Cardinals, Bernie Miklasz and Will Leitch take a look at the two most compelling figures, moving forward, on the team: Nolan Gorman and Jordan Walker. Have they made progress? How can you count on them moving forward? We dig into the futures of each player, and the Cardinals themselves, and how they're...

Seeing Red Episode 161: The Cards' Attendance Woes Go National
Seeing Red
A miserable week--seriously, what a lousy homestand--was exacerbated by some very, very small crowds at Busch, which was noticed by a national media paying attention to the Yankees. We discuss that, an interview with the Cards' head of ticket sales and try to place blame where it's warranted. We also have a fun discussion of everyone's picks for their least favorite Cardinals ever. Fiery show! Music as always by the great The Sundogs.
info_outlineThe Cardinals had a tough loss on Monday, a great comeback followed by yet another Ryan Helsley blown save. Should the Cardinals be worried about their All-Star closer? What other options do they have anyway? Bernie Miklasz and Will Leitch break it down. Bernie also talks about some late-night texts with a certain former Cardinals manager.
Also, don't forget our book event for Will's novel "Lloyd McNeil's Last Ride" at Left Bank Books on June 26. Fun!
Music as always by the great The Sundogs.
