Good afternoon. I hope you have rebounded from a not-so-great sports weekend in St. Louis, with the Blues getting swept by Colorado and the Cardinals losing two of three to the Cubs. Welcome to The Redbird Review… THE RESET: After dropping two of three games to the...
Welcome To The Redbird Review … Good afternoon! No Cardinals baseball today, but that’s OK. You need to rest up for the first Cubs-Cardinals series at Busch Stadium since the final weekend of the 2019 season. The Cubs and Cards open a three-game set Friday...
