Best Podcast in Baseball 8.25: Tradecraft

View descriptionShare

"The Big Fundy," Cardinals infielder Brad Miller says, describing teammate Paul Goldschmidt, who has reached base in 29 of his first 51 plate appearances since the team returned from its outbreak of COVID-19. During a call with teammates as they readied for a daunting schedule of doubleheaders and no off days, Goldschmidt suggested they have fun, "play loose," and as Miller said the "Tim Duncan of baseball" has led by example. The Cardinals have clawed out of quarantine to a 10-8, so what to make of the team, its expectations, and its approach as the Aug. 31 trade deadline nears? St. Louis Post-Dispatch sports columnist Ben Frederickson joins baseball writer Derrick Goold to discuss the tradecraft of the Cardinals -- what they need, what they'll do, and one big question: Given what this team has gone through, is it right to make a trade, or should Cardinals go with the team -- "Big Fundy" and Company -- that got them this far? The Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored by Closets by Design, is a production of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.
