The Bernie Show: Thumper Wanted (STL Sports Central)

The Cardinals have a power problem, and it’s not a small one. Bernie lays out the blunt reality: over the last two seasons, St. Louis has lived near the bottom of the NL in homers and slugging, and you can’t keep asking your pitching staff to be perfect just to survive. This isn’t a “hit more singles” conversation. Bernie explains why Chaim Bloom has to prioritize acquiring a young power bat, ideally in a trade, even if that hitter hasn’t fully exploded yet. Bernie also looks at what’s already in-house, from Iván Herrera’s legit thump to the boom-or-bust reality of Jordan Walker and Nolan Gorman, plus a few names tied to the Brendan Donovan trade talks.
