S8E9 – White Rats and Saturdays | Team of Rivals Podcast

Happy Holiday to Elliott and all who celebrate! Ron and Pete press on even as the Permanent Occasional Guest Host lives up to his title on a Saturday morning. The founders dissect the latest from the diamond, including the Cardinals' offensive woes and the White Sox's historic struggle at the plate. Is St. Louis's lack of run production just a phase, or are alarm bells ringing in the Gateway City?

The guys pay homage to the late, great Whitey Herzog, reminiscing about his impact on the Cardinals and the broader baseball landscape. They ponder the future of MLB managers and whether the era of the revered skipper is fading into the sunset.

Tyler O'Neill's latest IL stint sparks a debate on player durability and fan patience, while "Ron's Soccer Minute" takes an unexpected turn into a full-blown analysis of St. Louis CITY SC's current season challenges. Will their tactics need a shake-up to keep up with the competition?

Whether you're mourning the loss of a Cardinals legend, mulling over the fate of MLB managers, or simply here for the quirky camaraderie, this episode delivers a grand slam of entertainment.

Join us next week for another round of unscripted sports talk, where we promise to keep the 420 references to a minimum... unless Elliott has anything to say about it.

Happy listening, and here's to hoping your team's run differential is on the right side of the ledger!
