    Rebuild Reality: Why This Collapse Is Part of the Plan
    2026/08/26
    The St. Louis Cardinals were embarrassed 13-1 at Busch Stadium, but the ugliest loss of 2026 may reveal why the rebuild is working. Bernie Miklasz cuts through the panic, explains the pitching collapse, and shows why Chaim Bloom’s young roster could still be ahead of schedule. In this edition of The Bernie Show, Bernie examines Matthew Liberatore’s difficult season, Nolan Gorman’s rough return from Memphis, Joshua Báez’s adjustment to major league pitching, and the roster problems behind the Cardinals’ recent free fall. 👑 Presented by DraftKings Sports.

  • Bernie on the Bullpen Chaim Bloom Never Fixed

    Bernie on the Bullpen Chaim Bloom Never Fixed
    2026/08/24
    The Cardinals carried a four run lead into the bottom of the ninth inning Sunday in Philadelphia with a 98 percent probability of winning. Thirty nine pitches later, the entire problem with this season was sitting out in the open for anyone willing to look at it. Bernie Miklasz breaks down the Cardinals' collapse against the Phillies, the 11 game road trip that ended 5-6, and why the bullpen meltdown was the predictable end of a chain that started weeks ago. He gets into the rotation losses, the Kyle Leahy innings plan he fully supports, the one offseason decision he thinks Chaim Bloom got wrong, and the Oli Marmol decision he does criticize, without the theatrics. 👑 Presented by DraftKings Sports.

  • The Stat That CHANGES the Oli Marmol Argument

    The Stat That CHANGES the Oli Marmol Argument
    2026/08/21
    A rebuilding team just won its fifth straight series and is sitting two and a half games out of a playoff spot. Bernie Miklasz has the late-inning numbers that explain how, and they point somewhere most Cardinals fans have not been looking. Bernie breaks down the wild five-game series in Cincinnati, the July collapse that should have ended the season, what the trade deadline actually cost this roster, and the one move he believes Chaim Bloom should have made. Plus a data-backed case for Oli Marmol that runs against the loudest opinions on Cardinals Twitter.

  • The Joshua Baez Reality Check...

    The Joshua Baez Reality Check...
    2026/08/19
    Joshua Baez made history at Wrigley Field, then went 0 for 18. Bernie Miklasz says the panic is misplaced, and the Statcast data explains exactly why. On this episode of The Bernie Show, Bernie breaks down what the St. Louis Cardinals rookie is actually doing at the plate versus what the box score suggests. He digs into Baez's 2026 Triple-A profile at Memphis, the chase and contact issues that delayed his promotion, why Chaim Bloom made the call when he did, and the exit velocity and hard-hit numbers that point to better days ahead. Then Bernie goes deep into baseball history, because almost every great hitter you can name started out looking overmatched.

    Joshua Baez Shocked Baseball at Wrigley, But Bernie Is Watching Something Else...
    2026/08/17
    Joshua Baez did something no player in Major League Baseball history had ever done, and 24 hours later he struck out three times and went hitless. Bernie Miklasz says the second game may end up mattering just as much as the first. On this Monday edition of The Bernie Show, Bernie breaks down the most stunning debut in baseball history and then makes the case that Baez's quiet Sunday was quietly useful. He walks through why the Cardinals were right to keep Baez at Triple-A Memphis longer than fans wanted, what the swing adjustments actually fixed, and why he now believes he was wrong to push for an earlier call up. He also explains what Baez's arrival does for Jordan Walker, why this lineup suddenly looks deeper, and why the Jimmy Crooks reaction should be a warning to everyone about how fast a fan base can turn on a young hitter.

  • Bernie Admits He Was Wrong About Joshua Baez

    Bernie Admits He Was Wrong About Joshua Baez
    2026/08/14
    Bernie Miklasz spent this season pounding the table for the Cardinals to call up Joshua Báez, and in this video he says out loud that he was wrong. What changed his mind was a three-week collapse in Memphis that almost nobody outside the organization was tracking. Báez did not make the trip to Wrigley Field, and the frustration from Cardinals fans has gotten loud enough that some are threatening to stop buying tickets until he is promoted. Bernie walks through why the rookie eligibility clock is no longer a reason to wait, what Chaim Bloom's player development group has been quietly rebuilding in Báez's swing since July, and the one vulnerability Triple-A pitchers are still exploiting that would get exposed immediately at the major league level. He also lays out the realistic promotion windows, including the six-game homestand that begins August 25.
