Season 9, Episode 7 – Wieners and Taco Meat

What did we do to deserve this? In this Cards-heavy episode of the Team of Rivals Podcast, Ron, Elliott, and Pete are joined by special guests Holy Elle and Dan Buffa for a deep dive into the current state of St. Louis Cardinals baseball. The conversation kicks off with Ron expressing his frustrations about the team's stagnant offseason, drawing parallels to the dark days of the early '90s. The group debates the implications of the Cardinals' roster decisions, particularly focusing on the future of former stars like Nolan Arenado and Paul Goldschmidt. The discussion shifts as they analyze the potential impact of new players and the importance of allowing young talent like Mason Wynn and Jordan Walker to shine without being yanked back and forth between the majors and minors. The group shares their hopes and concerns about the upcoming season, exploring whether the team is truly committed to a rebuild or merely treading water. The conversation takes a humorous turn, with the group discussing about Jim Edmonds' recent interview and critique of his broadcasting style. We wrap up with "Ron's Soccer Minute," as he shares his excitement for the upcoming MLS season and City's home opener. Catch up with Elle at www.holyelle.com. Read Dan's latest at doseofbuffa.com.
