  • Summary

  • The Gashouse Gang, (Tom Ackerman, Bernie Miklasz, Kevin Wheeler, Matt Pauley) dove into the St. Louis Cardinals' spring training, exploring the excitement surrounding the team’s first full squad workout and the impact of leadership in the clubhouse. The panel discusses the team’s identity and the potential for growth, with a focus on key areas like offense and defense. The conversation also covers lineup strategy, particularly the importance of on-base percentage (OBP) at the top of the order and the role of developing young players versus optimizing the lineup for immediate run production. There’s debate over whether to prioritize high OBP players at the top of the order or give emerging talent an opportunity in key spots. Additionally, bullpen depth is examined, with a focus on the need for more reliable relievers and high-leverage options to support the pitching staff.
