  • It’s TIME to Trade Lars Nootbaar: Here’s Why
    Jul 9 2025
    In today’s episode of The Bernie Show, Bernie Miklasz proposes a bold deadline move: the St. Louis Cardinals should trade Lars Nootbaar. He breaks down why Nootbaar’s value is at a crossroads, why his production doesn’t match his hype, and how Nathan Church’s breakout is making him expendable. Bernie also names multiple contenders that need a player like Nootbaar and explains how John Mozeliak’s risk-averse style has held the Cardinals back. It’s time for action, not talk. 🔥 Get your first month free at BlueChew with code ‘BERNIE’ https://bluechew.com 👑 Presented by DraftKings.

  • Why JJ Wetherholt Could SAVE the St. Louis Cardinals Future
    Jul 8 2025
    JJ Wetherholt is one step closer to the big leagues, and Bernie is here to explain why the Cardinals’ top prospect is built different. From his left-handed swing to his all-fields approach and elite plate discipline, Wetherholt stands out not only on the stat sheet, but in his swagger. Bernie breaks down how he fits into a crowded infield alongside Donovan, Gorman, and Winn, and why the Cardinals desperately need him to be their next true “dude.” Plus, Bernie shares why Chaim Bloom may be the key to ending the drought of homegrown stars in St. Louis. 👑 Presented by DraftKings.

  • Bernie SNAPS on Mozeliak: Enough of Mikolas and Fedde!
    Jul 7 2025
    Bernie’s had enough. After another humiliating weekend for the St. Louis Cardinals: featuring blowouts by the Cubs and historic ineptitude from Miles Mikolas and Erick Fedde, Bernie Miklasz lays into John Mozeliak and the Cardinals front office for refusing to act. Why are two of MLB’s worst-performing pitchers still taking the mound? Why hasn’t Michael McGreevy gotten a real shot? Bernie breaks it all down, looks at the numbers, suggests bold changes: and reminds fans why the status quo is killing this team. 🔥 Get your first month free at BlueChew with code ‘BERNIE’ https://bluechew.com 👑 Presented by DraftKings.
