Our @williamfleitch.bsky.social promised you he'd be writing about the Cardinals every week until the season starts, and he did not lie to you. (He will never lie to you.)

Posts by Seeing Red, with Bernie Miklasz and Will Leitch
New show! @bmiklasz.bsky.social and @williamfleitch.bsky.social are now back weekly throughout the season. We talk optimism, JJ Wetherholt and just how many dang prospects there are all of a sudden. Fun! Baseball!

Psssst, check it out, your boyfriends @bmiklasz.bsky.social and @williamfleitch.bsky.social are getting back together to tape a show tomorrow. Got any questions? Send 'em to: seeingredpod@gmail.com.
We are excited to get to talk to you. We missed you.
Today'd podcast is on YouTube, if you're one of the people who consumes podcasts that way. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eEe...
OK, new episode! And it actually is a full show! @bmiklasz.bsky.social and @williamfleitch.bsky.social dig into What Cardinals Fans Need to See. This is a fun one.

(Also, sorry about the show this week. The CAST app ate a bunch of the show. Won't happen again. Have a great Labor Day.)
From @williamfleitch.bsky.social: I mean, I am still going to watch this game today. To try to salvage a split against the Pirates. In front of no fans. With Mikolas on the mound. I have a sickness.
For reasons that are absolutely baffling to us, the CAST podcast app deleted the last 35 minutes of our show today. Apologies. Very frustrating. Anyway, you have the first six minutes. You missed talk of Jordan Walker/Illinois/Mizzou football. Argh. Podcast equivalent of current Cardinals baseball.
Going to baseball games is good, baseball is fun.
It's sad to be the way everybody talks about us now.
. @williamfleitch.bsky.social's least favorite Cardinal is, and will surely always be, Tino Martinez. (Responded to taking over for Big Mac by ... having his worst season, moping, complaining about missing the Yankees, forcing his way out of town.)
But boy, Mikolas sure making one last run at him.
Honestly, I think I'd rather see Garrett Hampson pitch?
We keep switching from one broadcast to another to avoid Mike Matheny, and yet he keeps somehow following us to the next one.
The auto-generated chapters for our most recent podcast absolutely nailed it.
Also, Decatur rules! (Leitch's mom grew up in Moweaqua. He has spent much, much time in Decatur.)
Looking into seeing if we can take it from Left Bank's YouTube page ... we think that's what we did last time?
Also, we made you a new episode today, it was a very fun one.

Thanks again for everybody who came out to see @williamfleitch.bsky.social and @bmiklasz.bsky.social last week at Left Bank Books. You are all so awesome.
Well, @williamfleitch.bsky.social just watched 18 innings of Cardinals baseball at Busch Stadium and saw ... zero runs.
If you want cheered up, come see him and @bmiklasz.bsky.social TONIGHT at Left Bank Books in the Central West End. 7 p.m. CT. We'll talk books and baseball, but mostly baseball.
A reminder that @bmiklasz.bsky.social and @williamfleitch.bsky.social are recording a day later this week, on Tuesday the 10th, because Leitch is in Chattanooga, dropping off his son at camp and yelling "Choo! Choo!" at everyone on the street. (He's even wearing the little hat.) See you Tuesday.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, Seeing Red will be postponed until Wednesday this week. @bmiklasz.bsky.social and @williamfleitch.bsky.social will be back with you then!
We will confess, the fact that The Greatest Baseball Game of All Time is No. 3 on this list, rather than OBVIOUSLY NUMBER ONE, had us sputtering with rage. (Particularly considering what No. 2 is.) www.nytimes.com/athletic/638...
Occasionally, @williamfleitch.bsky.social actually deigns to WRITE about the Cardinals. www.mlb.com/news/cardina...
Totally counts.
We do understand why Cardinals fans are skeptical of this front office and this organization right now. We (obviously) do. But man, if you're not watching this team right now, you're missing out.
@williamfleitch.bsky.social *believes* this is the 32nd-ever Mattoon High School game at Busch. Here's a photo from the first one, way back in 1992, of your humble co-host.
Also: Thanks to @hochman314.bsky.social for sending along this photo of @williamfleitch.bsky.social's Mattoon High School playing postgame at Busch today.
It's amazing how often we've found ourselves saying this lately, but ... that might have been the win of the year. If Walker has figured something out ...
