One thing you forgot to mention is Yadir Molina. His leadership got them through the last decade. The year he retired? The cards fell off a cliff. He had more of an effect on the team than just his bat and calling skills behind the plate
@@nomercyinc6783they made the World Series in 2013 but yeah since then they haven’t done shit. 2022 is the one year they probably could have but they shit the bed
"Would've" It's "WOULD'VE won"!!! It's a conjunction of the two words "would" and "have". "Would of" is complete jibberish! Nonsense. You tell me how it makes sense.
As a Cardinals fan I have so many thoughts... 2022 was supposed to be our year. Everything was going perfect and it was incredible, except for Goldschmidt. If you look at Goldies game logs in 22, he fell off a cliff as soon as September hit. The only reason we actually made the playoffs and got to the 90+ wins was just on the back of Pujols magical run. He carried all the runs we needed to win games in September. Goldy stopped hitting completely as soon as September hit. I think the "wasted" idea is a 50/50 blame. Goldnado didn't show up when we needed them the most. Arenado is like 1/20 in the playoffs in those 2 years. He just didn't do anything. Goldy fell off too. They should carry 50% of the blame, and the office just didn't suppled the pitching the modern game was needed. The FO brought in 2 MVP perennial players, and they just didn't show up when they were needed the most. I think about the difference in the Dodgers 23 and 24 post seasons. The Dodgers got swept in 2023 in the NLDS because Mookie and Freeman didn't show up and did nothing when it was needed the most. They won in 2024 because Freeman and Mookie showed up. When you're paying MVP players MVP money, they gotta come through. Small addition. No Yadi. He led the team, and was the face of the team. Goldy & Arenado couldn't step and be the face of a franchise. They'll succeed when there are other players that are the faces of the organization. < Die Hard Cardinals Fan
As a Cardinals fan this is SO true, and it hurts badly. Mozeliak(our GM) has been afraid to spend money and fired Shields for no reason. That’s when the downfall started. Whilst was a coach that would make the decisions he wanted to for the team and Marmol our current coach, does whatever Mozeliak wants. Pathetic. Cardinals fans are going to see the end of an era with both gone by the beginning of the season but it will be a fresh start. Expect to see the cards in the playoffs in 3-5yrs. Bloom will find a way. Let’s go Cards.
As a lifelong Cardinals fan I'm pretty disappointed with Ownership (DeWitt family) for wasting the years we had with Goldy and Nado. A few seasons ago they finished 1st and 3rd in MVP voting respectively... but why were ownership so uptight that they couldn't shell out some more money on supporting pieces to go all in? Half ass measures facilitate half-assed results. I'm primarily speaking of the Year we brought Pujols back and had that magic... IF there was ever a time to push the chips all in, that was it. The front office has now somewhat decided to go into a rebuild and may have realized how egregiously they dropped the ball, but most STL fans will always have a sour taste in our mouths because of how horribly they dropped the ball when we had these two on our roster. Pathetic.
Cards Nation have known this for a long time. We needed a rebuild 5 years ago. If I remember I thought a HOF pitcher named Max Scherzer was wanting to come and play in St Louis? Maybe with him, Pujols, Goldschmidt, Molina and Arenado could have done enough to get past a WC? But No the genius GM places too much trust into guys like Mikolas and Matz. Mo has got to Go!
The Cardinals turned two generational talents into one of the biggest missed opportunities in baseball. Instead of building a dynasty, they ran it into the ground. Classic case of mismanagement killing potential greatness.
Cardinals are focusing on rebuilding the front office and player development system this offseason. Next season is just about letting the young guys play that they already have, and whatever happens, happens.
As a Cubs fan seeing the Cards gets Arenado/Goldy for practically nothing around the same time we had to trade off Bryant/Rizzo was as grueling to watch as that 83 win ‘06 team and the “twice down to last strike” ‘11 team both win it all. Good thing we’ll always have 2016.
I’ll be honest… they didn’t show up in the playoffs. Yes, we wasted the years they were here. But we also just have to acknowledge that when we needed the cornerstones in the playoffs they laid eggs.
I’m a Red Sox lifelong fan since the 80’s. The series in 07 where the Rockies got dog walked is really my only reference for the ‘Rockies don’t want anything to do with winning’ comment 😂😂😂
@ I always think of suppan hearing ‘go go’ instead of ‘no no’ getting picked by Ortiz and have taught my teams it’s always ‘stay stay’, ‘get back get back’ or ‘go’ . Never ‘no’ just bc of that play.
It was amazing to see them in 2022 lead that win streak. Then the Phillies happened and Paul and Nolan did absolutely nothing. Then 23 and 24 happened. They had great moments, but it wasn't enough. Screw you Mozeilak
The Cardinals once had one of the best farm systems in all baseball. They had several prospects, a lot of good players in development, and a system pumping more out. Then, they started trading their farm system players away. Stopped investing in the farm system. Stopped drafting good talent. Stopped developing their pitchers. You know, like the White Sox. I've wondered since about 2017 if Reinsdorf secretly bought the Cardinals...
Im so glad my team is in a easy division… i mean we still cant win and i honestly thought our biggest threat was the cards but glad they found themselves choking just as much lol
The cardinals potentially wasted their time with a future HoFer 3rd baseman in his prime along side several other really good players in a mediocre divison...and yet they STILL are better off than the Rockies
Arenado is unquestionably the best defensive corner I’ve seen in history, and if the baseball gods can save him from Trout Syndrome, it’s gotta be LA. 🤷♂️ He’s already thumbin on the roadside with an “LA or BUST” sign. Gods let it BE! 🙏😮💨
My favorite player is Nolan Arenado. He is one of the best to ever play third. Rockies didn’t know how to win so…go to the cardinals to lose? GO TO A TEAM TO WIN THE WORLD SERIES!!! Besides Goldy, nobody else could do anything.
Coming from a Cardinal fan myself, wasting it isn’t the best way to describe it. 2023 sucked for sure, and I think age has a lot to do with it. Goldy was 36 in 2023, and Arenado is still good
I laughed way too hard when he said "pujols at age 57" 🤣
I was eatin ramen & burned my t’roat from a choke-laugh.
Well if he didn’t get off the gear when he got his big contract he woulda hit 900 homers😂😂
Yeah not bad for 57
Nolan Arenado just used his no trade clause to save himself from the Huston Astros.
Busy packing up for Boston
And we're glad
The Huston Streets

they havent done shit the last decade. sure they beat the dodgers a few times but never did anything important
@@nomercyinc6783they made the World Series in 2013 but yeah since then they haven’t done shit. 2022 is the one year they probably could have but they shit the bed
If only the Cardinals Signed: World Series Champion Brent Honeywell Jr To A: 12 Year 650 Million Dollar Contract, maybe they would of won...
I Love this on going running joke 😂😂😂

"would of" Dear lord go educate yourself.
"Would've"
It's "WOULD'VE won"!!!
It's a conjunction of the two words "would" and "have".
"Would of" is complete jibberish! Nonsense.
You tell me how it makes sense.
@@KitipawsYes. Exactly.
Don’t let this distract you, the Yankees blew a 6 run lead in game 5 of the World Series.
5 run
Five runs, but it feels like more. Do I give a fuck? Nah.
@@chrisolson2846 same thing, the bottom line is that the Yankees suck.

They never had a good ace pitcher since Carpenter retired. Ever notice that when the offense was doing great, pitchers then sucked and vice versa?
as a cardinals fan, this hurt to watch, but damn is it so true.
Had to do it🙏
Bro went from saying Pujols was 48 to 57 😂😂😂
in the space of 1 season😂
As someone who’s getting into baseball your channel helps a lot
That means a lot, thank you!! Glad you're getting into it
@@iTalkStudios decided to be a padres fan am i cooked?
@@EzeIsCoolNo they are a respectable solid playoff team
@@EzeIsCoolLowkey. They’re almost like the Mets of the west.
You should checkout Fuzzy. He does daily videos on baseball.
Feels like Goldschmidt just won MVP. Can't believe that was in 2022
Been awful ever since

entertaining as usual! Thank you.
Thank YOU
Hey thanks for this video it needed to be said out loud, and it makes it really cool that you listened to my comment on your stream a while back.
Thank you for watching and supporting! I appreciate it and your comment. I can always use video ideas haha I'm not a know it all
Lmao Blueface catching a stray in a baseball vid 😂
As a Phillies fan, I always enjoy revisiting that 2022 WC round.
Stopping some kid from saying first
The Cardinals turned two generational talents into one of the biggest missed opportunities in baseball. Instead of building a dynasty, they ran it into the ground. Classic case of mismanagement killing potential greatness.
How old was Pujols by the end of the video?
Nice catch - lmao - was in his 50s the last said by iTalk... 😂😂
Cardinals are focusing on rebuilding the front office and player development system this offseason. Next season is just about letting the young guys play that they already have, and whatever happens, happens.
As a giant cardinals fan our front office has been pretty bad. We've had no pitching for so long now it's sad
Weird as heck. I stayed up all night figuring out that impedance was a massive issue with my QC
Seeing this as Nolan just rejected a trade to the Astros 😭
As a Cubs fan seeing the Cards gets Arenado/Goldy for practically nothing around the same time we had to trade off Bryant/Rizzo was as grueling to watch as that 83 win ‘06 team and the “twice down to last strike” ‘11 team both win it all.
Good thing we’ll always have 2016.
Heck yeah, bud! Don't forget those two championships from before the Titanic took her maiden voyage.

The pujols age comments are great 😂😂😂

As a Cards fan saying to a Red Sox fan, you guys owned us since 04. Until Cardinals find a way to beat the Red Sox again, then we can celebrate.
@ I always think of suppan hearing ‘go go’ instead of ‘no no’ getting picked by Ortiz and have taught my teams it’s always ‘stay stay’, ‘get back get back’ or ‘go’ . Never ‘no’ just bc of that play.
I'm honestly surprised the Cards didn't make a good postseason run at Goldy and Nolan besides that 2019 year ofc
Bloom is not in charge yet, he is focusing on the farm system this year and then he will officially take over for 2026.
It was amazing to see them in 2022 lead that win streak. Then the Phillies happened and Paul and Nolan did absolutely nothing. Then 23 and 24 happened. They had great moments, but it wasn't enough. Screw you Mozeilak

Wsox have historically had a bad farm system, you can’t compare the Wsox to the Cardinals whatsoever.
Im so glad my team is in a easy division… i mean we still cant win and i honestly thought our biggest threat was the cards but glad they found themselves choking just as much lol
the Cards wasted a huge year from Pujols, who, at age 78, still crushed a lot of homeruns...
4 years of the best corner infield paired with 4 years of the worst starting pitching rotation 😭🙏
Cardinals to cut payroll yet again, even after getting a tv deal done.
The cardinals potentially wasted their time with a future HoFer 3rd baseman in his prime along side several other really good players in a mediocre divison...and yet they STILL are better off than the Rockies
Blueface the rapper?? 😂😂😂
and just like that nolan arenado used his NTC to block a trade to houston
Same video for the Blue Jays after the 2025 season
Nolan Just Blocked a trade to Houston
As a Cardinals fan this video hurt....it was all correct, but man it hurt.
Haha had to do it🙏 Sorry
@@iTalkStudios hey man, I can't blame you. You just call it how it is. Keep up the great videos!
We still got Masyn Winn the goat🐐
Watch him go to the Mets
Nolan just vetoed a trade to the Astros. Will he veto other trades I wonder?
I’m sorry dude they caused the failure the two good years we made the playoffs they didn’t hit. So sick of saying we blew it they blew it maybe more.
Can we get a 4th Guess? 😭😭. My pick for Arenado is Houston ngl
Arenado said No to the Astros.
Arenado is unquestionably the best defensive corner I’ve seen in history, and if the baseball gods can save him from Trout Syndrome, it’s gotta be LA. 🤷♂️ He’s already thumbin on the roadside with an “LA or BUST” sign. Gods let it BE! 🙏😮💨
Boston.
@ He don’t wanna play there.
@@drzalejandro7why would he go to Boston when they have Devers signed for many years to come.
@@tropicanajuice2438 lol because Devers can simply move over to 1B... players do that...
@drzalejandro7 I'm aware players do that. I'm not a casual. I thought they had a first basemen already.
I don't follow Boston much I'm a Yankees fan.
One minute 18 views? Bro fell off💔
Who is your favorite team
My favorite player is Nolan Arenado. He is one of the best to ever play third. Rockies didn’t know how to win so…go to the cardinals to lose? GO TO A TEAM TO WIN THE WORLD SERIES!!! Besides Goldy, nobody else could do anything.
Thank you. That STL lineup last season was TRASH. THEY EVEN LET EDMAN GO.
The Rockies hate winning lol
Pujols was on da juice
Wasn’t Chaim bloom fired?
I disagree!!!! yes STL should have won there division every season but they didn’t have a WS type of team.
That’s a shame
I believe arenados ops + was higher in st louis then Colorado due to the park factor of coors
It feels this organization just doesn’t care. And they play in the worst division in baseball. Boring team. Still feels weird Arenado is a cardinal.
Coming from a Cardinal fan myself, wasting it isn’t the best way to describe it. 2023 sucked for sure, and I think age has a lot to do with it. Goldy was 36 in 2023, and Arenado is still good
Im part of the high percentile thats not subscribed lol. Don't need to anymore most of the videos will eventually show up on your feed.
How many channels do you subscribe to?
@iTalkStudios A few but this was back in the day. The UA-cam algorithm will bring up the new video even if you are not subscribed lol.
the cardinals and arenado were never in a golden opportunity and a blocked trade isnt wasting a golden opportunity.
Bloom will do to the cardinals what he did to the Red Sox
Sun 500 most of the time
why do you always find a way to shit on the phillies? like damn bruh lol
Hello
What's up
Arenado played at Coors field. That's probably why his OPS+ was low those years.
LOVE TO SEE IT ! F STL and yadier Molina 😂😂😂
