Thank goodness it's Friday. A rough week got some light at the end of it when the Cardinals and rookie second baseman JJ Wetherholt agreed to a 8-year extension. With Allen (@amedlock1) in Hawaii, Daniel (@C70) gets the pleasure of talking it over with legendary media figure Bernie Miklasz (@b_miklasz). They discuss most of the aspects of the Wetherholt deal, from what it means to the organization to what it might signal to those outside St. Louis. They can't avoid the disaster that was the Milwaukee series, though. How close are the Cardinals to being that team again? Plus minor league talk, draft discussion, trade deadline chatter, and a few history deep pulls. Come listen in! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Cards started one of the toughest sections of their schedule with a bang, winning two of three from Atlanta with the rubber game one of the craziest in a while.

Jordan Walker's had a bit of a slump but is there any concern it is more than that? The guys also get into the changes in the executive suites, as Bill DeWitt Jr. gives way to BD3.
