What does it take to build a Cardinals team that can win in October?

On this episode of the Redbird Report, BK and T-Bone break down the lessons St. Louis should be learning from this postseason. From the importance of swing-and-miss pitching to building a deep bullpen that can deliver in the biggest moments. Getting to the playoffs is one thing, but having the arms to advance is another.

Should the Cardinals prioritize long-term extensions for Alec Burleson and Jordan Walker, or leave themselves more flexibility? The guys examine why the Braves could be a cautionary tale about locking up a young core and discuss the balance between keeping homegrown talent and leaving room to improve the roster.

Plus, what notes the Cardinals could take from teams like the Brewers and White Sox. And the guys' World Series picks.
