Bloom Has ONE Week Left, Bernie Explains What He Should Actually Do…

Chaim Bloom has one week to decide what the Cardinals are, and Bernie Miklasz says almost every name on the roster should be in play. Almost. There are exactly two players he would not put on the table, and the rest of the list may surprise you. Bernie breaks down the National League's third wild card race, a six team pileup where nobody seems to want the spot, and explains why St. Louis is somehow still within striking distance despite going 3-7 since the All-Star break. He then lays out the deadline blueprint he would follow: cheap bullpen help, controllable bats, and the discipline to walk away from short term fixes. Plus the bigger picture argument that 2026 is already a win for this organization, no matter what happens in the standings. 🍺 STL Sports Central is brought to you in part by Budweiser.
