Covering All The Bases

Charlie Meyer and Travis Green kickoff episode 51 talking about the Cardinals getting ready for a weekend series vs. the Cubs, that neither of these franchise have seen before in September. They discuss how this team put themselves in this position, and if fans/media are spoiled to the point that they don't appreciate where they are at. Dave Cameron wrote a piece on FanGraphs praising the Cardinals "devil magic" as the team finds two more diamonds in the rough with 29 year old stars Jose Martinez and Tommy Pham. How does this happen? How does it succeed? Finally, Luke Weaver succeeds in MLB after struggling at times last year in limited action - how much can be learned from an initial brief callup?
