We also discuss top prospect JJ Wetherholt officially signing his first professional contract, what the deal means for the former first-round pick, and why Cardinals fans should be excited about one of the organization's brightest young stars. Later, we dive into one of our most entertaining Friday debates as Soccer takes on Star Wars in a battle of global popularity and cultural impact. Which one comes out on top? We also reveal the winner of this week's Summer Blockbuster Movie Draft, react to listener votes, and finish the show with our weekly Friday Toasts, recognizing the people, performances, and moments that deserve a little extra appreciation heading into the weekend. It's the perfect Friday mix of Cardinals baseball, baseball prospects, sports, movies, pop culture, and plenty of laughs on The Drive.","meta_description":"The Cardinals open a pivotal weekend series against the Atlanta Braves, and we break down the pitching matchups, key storylines, and what St. Louis needs…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":3071,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-drive-on-espn-93-5-477079/episodes/07-10-26-hour-2-cardinals-vs-braves-preview-jj-wetherholt-signs-summer-blockbuster-draft-friday-toasts/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-drive-on-espn-93-5-477079/07-10-26-hour-2-cardinals-vs-braves-preview-jj-wetherholt-signs-summer-blockbuster-draft-friday-toasts.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
