This year at the trade deadline, Mo & Co. sent us back to yesteryear with the uninspiring additions of J.A. Happ and Jon Lester. Was that the goal? ...is there one? And then, a Chirp of the Week you didn't see coming: The Beatles at Busch.

Chirps - Episode 115 - We Believe In Yesterday...?

Well... that was a let down. This week, Tara and Alex talk about how to remember the good things in life after a sports night that goes down as one of the worst. What happened in that epic 9th inning? Who is to blame? What should Mike Shildt's response have been? And lest you think this has never happened before, Alex reminds us of another 6-1 9th inning lead from nearly a decade ago in the ever-so-chipper Chirp of the Week.

Chirps - Episode 114 - That's (Not) How The Baseball Works

There was no Cardinals representative in the 2021 Home Run Derby, but that didn't stop Tara and Alex from workshopping a way to make the exhibition of strength and power far more watchable (especially for someone like Alex who didn't watch it anyway...) Plus, they talk about the Cardinals chances coming out of the break, but who really knows what those look like at this point, right? And then Alex gives us a Chirp of the Week that features the biggest All Star of them all - Stan.

Chirps - Episode 113 - Alex Fixes The Derby

PaD - Season 4 - The Draft Day Episode

While it's easy to see the seemingly endless problems with the current Cardinals, Alex and Tara play a different game this week - say something nice about them, if they can. Plus, Alex finds an appropriately historic Chirp of the Week to share after an Independence Day weekend.

Chirps - Episode 112 - At Least There's Nolan

It's bad. It's pretty much all bad. But can it get better? Is all hope lost before July? Tara is back, just in time to talk about how bad everything really is, while Alex brings ups something unrelated entirely to entertain us in the Chirp of the Week.

Chirps - Episode 111 - Can The Bad Get Better?
