Seeing Red

The Cardinals did not have a good week, losing a series to the Marlins and then being swept by the Mariners. Bernie Miklasz and Will Leitch talk about what has gone wrong, and what we've learned about this team moving forward. They also talk Hunter Dobbins, Victor Scott II and, as always, Jordan Walker and Nolan Gorman. Music as always by the great The Sundogs. seeingredpod@gmail.com. Twitter/X/Bluesky: seeingredpod

Will is back from his vacation--and his Illini loss--and he and Bernie dig into the first fortnight of Cardinals baseball, focusing on Jordan Walker and his explosion. What's real? What isn't? What do the Cardinals do? What does it change? They dig into all parts, as well as trying to figure out the pitching and thinking about short term vs. long term. It's great to talk about this stuff again. And hey: the Cardinals are over .500! (For now.) Music as always by the great The Sundogs. seeingredpod@gmail.com. Twitter/X/Bluesky: seeingredpod

The season is here! The season is here! Bernie Miklasz and Will Leitch preview the 2026 season by breaking the team down position-by-position, answering big questions about the team from every angle. Who will lead the team in innings pitched? Saves? Homers? Which hitters end up above average? We dig into all of it. Because baseball is back this week! We missed it. A lot.

It is difficult to think of a season in which the Cardinals rotation, just two weeks out of Opening Day, has ever felt so unsettled. But the difference now is that unsettled, all told, may not be the worst thing. Bernie Miklasz and Will Leitch break down the Cardinals rotation for 2026, and note 10, maybe even more, different guys who could be a part of it. It's different than what it might have been in the past. But it also might be better. Music as always by the great The Sundogs. seeingredpod@gmail.com. Twitter/X/Bluesky: seeingredpod

Bernie Miklasz and Will Leitch were probably a little TOO optimistic last week, so we bring you down this week, discussing how the problem with this team may end up being the offense rather than the pitching. Will they be able to find a stud bat? Will THIS be the year for Jordan Walker or Nolan Gorman? Will Masyn Winn take a step forward? Lots of offensive questions for this team, yep.

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 Sundogs. seeingredpod@gmail.com

Hey, hey, Bernie and Will are back! Bernie Miklasz and Will Leitch return for their first Seeing Red since the end of the year, and they've got a lot to discuss, starting with of course the Sonny Gray trade. They dig into what Chaim Bloom may have brewing up next, as well as trying to figure out the catching situation and how long it may be until the Cardinals contend next. We missed you! We hope you had a great Thanksgiving. Music as always by the great The Sundogs. Sorry we didn't have our opening song on this one, we had some tech issues. It'll be back on the next show. We're rusty!

We promised you a big Recap Of The John Mozeliak Era show. This is that show. Bernie Miklasz and Will Leitch give an exhaustive rundown of the highs and low of the Cardinals' leader's two-decade run on the eve of his retirement. How will he be remembered? What did he do right? Wrong? What's fair? What isn't? We did in deep. We hope you enjoy. And hey: Just one week left in the season! Music as always by the great The Sundogs.

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.

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 tied together. We also talk a little college football. Have a great Labor Day! Music as always by the great The Sundogs.

After a successful week--wait, are the Cardinals really only 3 1/2 games out of the Wild Card--and a weekend that featured Yadier Molina in the dugout (and a lot of Cardinals fans wishing he'd stay there), Bernie Miklasz and Will Leitch dig into The Oliver Marmol Question. What kind of a manager is he? Why are fans so skeptical of him? Can he survive into next year, or even the year after? Does what he represent shadow who he actually is? It's a lively discussion! Also: We want to hear your least favorite Cardinals ever: seeingredpod@gmail.com Music as always by the great The Sundogs.

The Cardinals needed a perfect week to convince themselves they could be buyers at the deadline: That, uh, did not happen. So it's clear what the Cardinals have to do. Bernie Miklasz and Will Leitch preview John Mozeliak's final deadline running the Cardinals, and who might go ... and what it might mean. We'll be back next Monday to wrap it all up. Music as always by the great The Sundogs.
