Reviews

4.4 out of 5 stars from 23 ratings
  • The Absolute Best

    Randy and the crew do it better than anyone! I'm so glad he's found an outlet for his wealth of knowledge, spot-on insights, and all the other talents he brings as a broadcaster. Keep up the great work, everybody and THANK YOU!

    Note: if the ongoing audio issues could be cleaned up, that'd be super helpful.

    Tone/volume/audio quality inconsistencies often make it really hard to tune in.

    Lots of the issues seem to come from difficulty staying on mic; maybe have headsets with mics built in?

    That said, please don't invite Bernie Miklasz on as a guest. He's a terrific write, but is such an insufferable broadcaster.

    Without the guardrails/constraints of a physical newspaper (which no longer exists for him, I realize), he's incapable of having a baseball conv... more

Randy Reacts to the Cardinals Extending Marmol | Mike Claiborne Live from Jupiter | Thomas to Utah?
Q: Claiborne, how are you doing, sir?
Claiborne responds that he is doing well and engages with the hosts about Marmol and the Cardinals' direction.
Doug Armstrong on Joel Hofer's Future and a Draft That Could Go Anywhere
Q: Were the Blues in on Brady Kachuk, the 26-year-old forward who was traded to the Panthers?
The Blues inquired with Ottawa, but Brady Kachuk had a small list of teams he would go to and we were not on that list.
Does Dustin May Get Extended? Traded? QO-ed? | Stefan Caray Breaks it Down with Randy Karraker
Q: Do you think the Cardinals should trade Dustin May at the deadline or try to extend him, given his age and injury history?
It's a nuanced decision: you weigh the immediate playoff contention against long-term control and potential value of extending him; if they stay in contention, an extension could be more attractive, but health risk and cost must be carefully evaluated.
Does Dustin May Get Extended? Traded? QO-ed? | Stefan Caray Breaks it Down with Randy Karraker
Q: Let's start with this because when Dustin May came up, he was the Dodgers' number two prospect, and he was thought to be the guy that we saw last night on a consistent basis. What stood out about his performance last night for you?
The performance showed that May can pitch deep into games and mix his attack, showing energy and the ability to work both to contact and for swing-and-mmiss, which makes him exceptionally valuable when healthy and used smartly within a rotation.
Why NOBODY Can Stop Talking About This Cardinals Rookie! | Paul "Hembo" Hembekides Interview
Q: Is Jordan Walker's sustainable improvement more plausible than not, given the changes in his approach and posture?
Yes, because the improvements are not merely about bat speed but about the quality of at-bats, posture, and ground-based energy transfer, which suggest a durable upgrade in his baseline performance rather than a short-term fluctuation.
