The current GM and John Mozelik did not draft Albert, it was when Walt Jockety was in charge and the Cardinals had a way better team back then too of actually good players and not these 3rd rate big leaguers that have "potential"
@@joejoe722 actually John Mozeliak was the Cardinals Scouting director and he's the one that gets credit for discovering Albert Pujols and he told Walt Jockety to draft Pujols
Matt Carpenter’s dad was my baseball coach in high school and Matt came in and told us his story, it was really cool hearing his college and minor league stories
I think about this a lot. The Mets obviously have a lot of guys with really high ceilings but they usually don’t reach them often or at all and are generally just good or slightly above average during their time with the Mets. I’m worried about letting guys like Syndergaard, Nimmo, Rosario and Matz go, because while they aren’t always that great, they were once seen as top prospects and continually show flashes of elite talent.
Same when it ended i thought it was an ad roll I'm pretty confused why he stoppednit right when he should have pointed out why these underated players turned into Allstars but he just stopped
Thanks for the video! As a Cardinals fan myself, I have noticed otherwise obscure prospects making big contributions to the club for years and this was cool to see.
It's like yes.. this guy will help us in 2034 in a 4 game series for a crucial strikeout at exactly 4:39 pm on October 3rs to help us clinch the pennant.
@@Tank-eh3fw that’s oddly specific, but correct that often one the cardinals randoms will have a big hit in a crucial game and it gives the impression like where do the Cardinals find these guys, but as a cards fan it feels pretty normal to see some random player coming through in a big moment if I’m being honest, it’s something we kinda expect. I guess as cardinals fans we’re spoiled a bit.
You should do a Javy Báez video, his unique abilities on the field, from playing elite D at three Infield positions, to now playing top 3 D at SS full time, crazy ability to tag, his rise to an MVP candidate; lots to talk about
Connor Madden Not him in particular, but the chase did get my attention. I never the liked the “all or nothing” hitters. Once Pujols came along then I really became a big fan.
Could we do a video about Detroit's good years from 2011-2014 and how they did good. But how did they do so bad all of the sudden. Also show how good Detroit's prospects depth, the trades that helped Detroit and lastly and the players that helped Detroit control the AL central from 2011-2014. Hope Detroit does good soon. #1 Detroit tigers fan from New Zealand. Keep up with the videos!
Born and breed in STL. I’ve said this very thing without being able to articulate it as well forever. This is precisely why the Cards are a dynasty and a lot of the best qualities from St.Louis city (yes there are some) come shining through in the development of its players. It is a working class town and to me personally that’s something I’ve always been proud of. We constantly earn it, we don’t buy it. Yeah I’m looking at you in all of your self righteousness Chicago, New York, Atlanta and so on. No you are not better than us and you never will be.
I didn’t say anything about it, but I also wanted a video about the cardinals. If you do another, look at how working with the cards (Molina and Dave Duncan, then Mike Maddox) has turned around the careers of pitchers like Joel Piñeiro, Kyle Lohse, and Miles Mikolas
the cardinals really are special. they are a small market team that pulls off large market moves by turning low contract nobodies into superstars. i love calling them my home team, they’re living proof that a small market is no excuse for failure in the mlb.
Can you also do a video on the Yankees? They have so much home grown talent and filled in holes with players who may have been a little undervalued (DJ, Tauchman, Hicks, etc) at the time of when the Yankees signed or traded for them.
Hey thanks for the video and the shoutout at the beginning! Like I said, there's such little recognition of the Cards on youtube so I really enjoyed this one and wished it was like an hour longer haha :) Also you pronounced my name perfectly which is also a rare feat! I'll keep watching your channel for the top content you always produce.
Catching in my Show franchise has been anemic league-wide, only Mitch Garver has been in the top 50 in any offensive category the past two years. Going to move DeJong to catcher, maybe 60 blocking is fair, lower his arm stats to account for body position.
Can you do one on the Mets farm system? It seems like we never have a very good farm system, yet we developed deGrom, Alonso, Wheeler, Matz, Dom Smith, Rosario, McNeil, Conforto, Nimmo, and anyone else I’m forgetting. I don’t understand how a team that is typically considered below average in farm systems can develop that many excellent players over the past few years.
I appreciate them actually using college stats. I’ve seen too many pitchers get drafted who pitched in like 4 games and threw up a 98.00 era. Too many solid players get overlooked due to the “me throw hard” mentality.
You know, I like to keep up with prospects a lot, and after seeing this video I’m just now realizing I never saw Tommy Edman’s name before he made it to the MLB, yet now he’s one of my favorite players. Devil magic, I guess. Also, you said your favorite team was the Phillies when I asked in a comment, so now I’m wondering: what do you think of the Phillies pitching staff? On the surface, they’re alright, if not above-average, but I feel like Eflin and Arrieta are underperforming and could definitely be better, and the Phils could have a surprisingly good rotation. What do you think?
They won't be an elite rotation, even if Wheeler ends up being great. Arrieta seems more like an average pitcher at this point and Eflin has some upside but I don't think he'll ever be all star level. Their rotation won't be bad, but their ceiling isn't at the level of their rivals
I'm 29 and have been a lifelong Cardinal fan. In my youth, it was the Mark McGwire show, then when I turned 11, thus began the decade long run of the Albert Pujols saga. I've seen 4 World Series, and sadly over the past 5 years a radical decline in a team that clearly hasn't a clue how to move forward. The last of the old generation in Wainwright and Molina are on the verge of retirement. We're entering a rebuilding phase for sure.
Nah my guy we are still going to be good. We have Dylan Carlson and Nolan Gorman almost major league ready + Flaherty at the top of the rotation and Liberatore also on the come up. Give Edman and Dejong some more time to mature + Wong and we’ve got one of the best infields in the league. Also we have Hicks and if Reyes stays healthy then we’ve got one of the best bullpens with Gallegos as well. The only potential hole is at catcher but Knizner could end up being great as well
Hopefully they have new Pitching development now,because so many young pitchers developed arm trouble,delaying their time to get to the big leagues or after getting their they broke down. Ie Reyes,Hicks & now Hudson. C Mart just developed head problems.
Pitching/Run Prevention was the key of the cards success. No losing seasons in the decade. Most of that goes to the credit of Yadier Molina and Adam Wainwright. Those were the guys that could steer the ship all season. Just look at last year. the Cards relied on Uncle Charlie in the postseason and he delivered(for the most part). Yadi has controlled the pitching staff for most of decade. That is why he will be a HOF
Hey Bobby I was wondering if you could do video of how stacked my Rays farms system is.. I honestly think they could be serious WS contender in 5 or so years
Here's a line for you. The cardinals rarely go big in free agency. If you look into the history of the cardinals organization, most of our stars have been drafted or acquired via trade. 1. Pujols. Drafted by the card 2. Edmonds. Trade with the angels 3. Rolen. Trade with the Phillies 4. Ozzie. Trade with the padres. 5. Wainwright. Trade with the braves 6. Yadi. Drafted by the cardinals. The cardinals usually go for cheap utility players to fill out their roster, and it works. Go cards
Can you do a video of the Astros future. Basically how prospects and current contracts look for the Astros in the long run. I need to know if I should prepare to boo them for the long run.
Hi, recent sub here. Was wondering if you can do a vid on the 2004 & 2005 Dodgers and their first trudge in sabermetics? They were one of the first National league teams to follow these principles (through DePodesta) and seemed to “fail”. It would be interesting to see the possible thoughts in the moves made those years.
Can you do a video on the failure of the Pirates. They haven’t won a World Series since 1979. What went wrong from 2010-2016. The Pirates had some good, young talent, but it went to waste.
Can you give a video on how good Mariano Rivera was. Your vids are amazing as well, I hope you get more subs, u deserve it! Edit: Thank you so much for the like!
Looking for some new ambient music for my videos. If anyone knows of good royalty free music websites let me know!

I'm willing to hum some random notes for ya....
BTW - like your stuff, keep it up

Go without.
I dont really know any music ideas but could you maybe do a video on eddie Rosario of the Minnesota twins
Cant forget Pujols going 402nd overall to start the Cards' 21st century lol
That's even more ridiculous than Mike Trout.

Very lucky on their part! You're right! lol
Tommy Edman was clutch last year. Looking forward to more of him.
Edman has the potential to be such a superstar, its incredibly exciting to me as a cards fan.
It’s a crime he didn’t get any RotY votes
I think Dylan Carlson will be a beast
They are always good!

:(
Not this year MLB 😢

Around St. Louis we refer to it as the salsa
Well that was in 2018
The Cardinals are always a team I never see as bad, or at least they are not bad for very long. They obviously have a great scouting department.
They've also been associated with cheating, though.
@@sdccvideo1460 against the astros, figures
Do a video about how players get worse when they go to the mets and get better when they leave
lol

It’s called bad player development
Going Yard
Talent doesn’t disappear from going to another team, right?
They also picked up a pretty good player in the 13th round of the 1999 draft.
Yes a Cardinals video! Go Cardinals! Another great video Bobby. A video I think would be cool is about how the 2003 Tigers went 43-119
Yeah, my tigers suck.
Go cards
