Meet Me At Musial: A St. Louis Cardinals Podcast

Daniel Shoptaw and Allen Medlock

Daniel Shoptaw (@C70, from Arkansas) and Allen Medlock (@amedlock1, Oklahoma) prove that great Cardinal talk can come anywhere in Cardinal Nation when you meet up to discuss your favorite team.

As Han Solo once said, "This is not how I thought this day was going to go." Stunning news out of St. Louis this afternoon as Mike Shildt was fired as manager. Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) is joined by the Bens of Cardinals Off Day, Mr. Godar (@bengodar) and Mr. Humphries (@b_g_h) to talk about this surprising turn of events. What could be the cause of these "philosophical differences"? What impact does a manager have a team these days anyway? Who will be the 51st manager of the Cardinals and

The Cardinals lost a game this week. It's remarkable that that piece of information is news! After a record run, Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) and Allen (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) talk about what's next for this team. Which team should the Cardinals want to see in the wild card game? Is there a path to the World Series for this club? This weekend is the last for Mike Shannon and Matt Carpenter. Is there anything to Shannon's most recent bombshell? And how will Carpenter go out?

Twelve wins in a row, something the club hasn't done since 1982 which is not entirely outside of Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) and Allen's (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) lifetimes but far enough back that the guys aren't going to remember it. Daniel and Allen talk about what this team has done over the stretch and most notably yesterday in Milwaukee, rallying in a game that seemed destined to end the streak. Not everything is perfect--the bullpen usage still is a concern--but there's a lot of

After a sweep in New York and some help along the way, the Cardinals reach the weekend a 1/2 game ahead of the Padres for the second wild card right before San Diego pays a visit to Busch. Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) and Allen (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) talk about this turn of events and what has gotten the Cards to this point. The pitching staff is shaping up, but how does Dakota Hudson and Jack Flaherty fit into the picture? There's talk about the outfield and how it is clicking, plus

It wasn't the worst week of Cardinal baseball, but take out an inning and it would have been a lot better. Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) and Allen (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) talk about many different facets of the week, especially the Dodgers series (though, surprisingly, not much about the return of Mr. Pujols). Did Mike Shildt have enough urgency for that series? Does any team really want to win the wild card? The guys also talk a lot about Matt Carpenter, Alex Reyes, and some possible

We've flipped the calendar to September, the last guaranteed month of baseball (OK, there are three games in October with the Cubs as well.) Daniel and Allen talk about the last week, the series with the Reds, and look at a few other issues surrounding the Cardinals. Is the closer spot really about matchups and will Alex Reyes find himself back there soon? What does the rest of the way look like for the Cardinals? And could the Cardinals have come up with a more boring September callup class?

After one of the (but, amazingly, not THE) hardest losses of the season, Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) and Allen (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) come together to talk about the state of the Cardinals through the prism of the debacle against the Pirates. What is Mike Shildt doing? Is the bullpen going to survive? Even though they scored seven runs, this offense isn't reliable either. Plus there's the Yadier Molina extension to discuss as well.

While the Cardinals didn't win the series against the Brewers, they easily could have (you can argue should have) and weren't outclassed by the division leaders. Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) and Allen (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) talk about the win on Thursday, the series in general, and what's coming up for the Cardinals, Reds, and Padres.

It was a successful week of Cardinal baseball, winning two of three from the Royals and sweeping the Pirates. Now, on the verge of another series with Kansas City, Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) and Allen (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) sit down and talk about if there are signs for optimism. Jack Flaherty is coming back, though Wade LeBlanc seems to be going out. Can the club make a run at the wild card? Is the upcoming Milwaukee series a line in the sand?

It's honestly not been a great week for the St. Louis Cardinals, capped off by a come from ahead loss on Wednesday night when the final four runs scored via bases loaded walks. Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) and Allen (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) try to come to terms with a Cardinals team that seems like they are already playing meaningless baseball even if they aren't technically eliminated.

Back in January, the guys were recording when Nolan Arenado became a Cardinal. Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) and Allen (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) hoped lightning would strike twice as they recorded less than 24 hours before the trade deadline, only to see a couple of potential targets head elsewhere (it appears). While much of the show focuses around the club's inaction and silent running during this active time, the guys do talk about the recent games in Cincinnati and Cleveland as well as

Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) and Allen (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) talk about a wide variety of Cardinals topics. Is there a concern over the bullpen usage and that Alex Reyes and Giovanny Gallegos might get overused? Will John Mozeliak make a move at the deadline or rely on the return of Jack Flaherty and Miles Mikolas? Will Yadier Molina ever rest? Plus the guys

Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) and Allen (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) pepper Kyle with questions at all levels of the organization. What should the Cardinals do at the deadline? What kind of chips do they have at the minor leagues? There's plenty of discussion about the minors, most notably the new #PatronProspect Alec Burleson.

After a week that inspired a flicker of hope, Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) and Allen (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) get together to talk about all the things going on with the Cardinals. The focus, of course, is on the upcoming trade deadline. Who could they actually use as trade chips? Is Andrew Knizner being showcased?

The Cardinals took all three games against the Diamondbacks, meaning they've won four of five before this recording. Does that make us feel any better? With Allen (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) out of pocket, Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) breaks it down with Ben Godar (Cardinals Off Day, @bengodar). Is there any hope now that the June funk seems to have been broken? What do we need to see between now and the All-Star Break? Can anything be done about the seeming systemic failures going on in

Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) and Allen (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) try to make some sense out of this team and really struggle at it.

Daniel (C70 At The Bat, @C70) was out on vacation last week but, as Allen (Red Dirt Redbird, @amedlock1) informed him, he didn't really miss anything relating to the Cardinals. The club is as maddeningly frustrating and mediocre as ever and the guys talk about the biggest issues relating to St. Louis. It's hard to believe, but the focus seems to have shifted to the offense. Could they get a bat? Would they get one, if it meant displacing someone like Paul DeJong? The pitching isn't ignored, of
