Alec Burleson wants to stay and @b_miklasz wants the #STLCards to pay him But if they won’t, why keep him while his trade value slips away?

Bernie is an idiot

And yet you honor the idiot by commenting on his timeline. So who is the idiot? Absolutely hysterical.

You can’t trade him when his contract is up. You could do a sign and trade, but I don’t know if that makes as much sense in baseball as it does in professional basketball. Would you even get a draft pick for him?

Like you said this isn’t the NBA. If it was the NBA, would have already been given a $250 million deal.

I’d rather keep burly over Walker

I agree. Burleson first up.

Okay I’ve seen a lot of people upset that we’re still rebuilding and I think that is ridiculous however, this is a crazy take this is a player hold onto

As I said in the video I really want them to extend Burleson.

Absolutely not burly is part of the core to build around this rebuild is ahead of schedule. You don’t just keep moving everyone for prospects every year the sell off was last year and this deadline the sell off should be over time to build .

I agree. That’s why I said what I said. Thank you.

Bernie Show for Friday: if the #STLCards want to establish a core that can stay together, that starts by giving Alec Burleson the contract extension he's earned and deserves. youtu.be/84ndCg9ycMg?si=a1j0… via @YouTube

Three losing seasons in nine full campaigns for Whitey Herzog in St. Louis. Three in 16 for Tony La Russa. Three in five for Oli Marmol. Franchise will notify us when we’re allowed to hold him accountable. Building, developing … wins merely a bonus.

Bernie Show for Wednesday: The #STLCards will make progress and get better in 2027 -- but it won't be through payroll enlargement and big trades. No rebuild is completed on one year. youtu.be/GVU-XiJ3tUI?si=d3xw… via @YouTube

And now they are spending nothing…They is a happy medium…they could easily afford what this team needs to compete,They already have the minors set up … so why not get some players on short term deals …. They can always trade them for more prospects when the others are ready

Before 2027? No. Before 2028? YES.

Does 77-85 tell you everything you need to know about the #STLCards? @b_miklasz says judging this season by the record alone misses the entire point

Bernie joins Chaim in insulting the fan base.

No, the fan base overall is outstanding and still one of the best in sports. But when people do and say stupid things, I see no reason to ignore that part, either. Thankfully a huge percentage of the fan base is smart and classy. Thanks!

Bernie says a lot things. Mostly whatever he thinks the most amount of people want to hear. His takes are usually months behind what most people have already said.

Lively take! Thanks for sharing!

People have to know Bloom took a D plus minor league system with few MLB prospects and turned it into an A plus system with many MLB prospects

Agreed but you'd be surprised how many willfully ignorant people there are out there. Hopefully that will change. Thank you.
