Masyn Winn is coming. At age 21 the top Cardinals’ prospect has big-league talent and a big-stage personality. Winn’s advance buildup makes him a star even before he makes his official debut for the Cardinals. Winn is a significant part of the franchise’s...
THE REDBIRD REVIEW Oh, well. Matthew Liberatore’s start at Tampa Bay is just a fond memory now. It appears that his excellent work against the Rays was just a tease. A fluke. Unfortunately, a dominant performance that conquered an outstanding baseball team at The Trop...
THE REDBIRD REVIEW The Cardinals avoided a potential trap by winning the first two games of their three-game set against the wretched Oakland A’s. The A’s are historically destitute, having won only 38 of their 120 games this season for a worst-in–show winning...

BIRD BYTES The 2023 MLB Trade Deadline is hours away, with a scheduled stoppage at 5 p.m. St. Louis time. For the Cardinals, it’s the final day to move players until the offseason percolates after the World Series. Wait! Let’s pause my hurry-scurry notebook to...
