I have some St. Aug that has some basketgrass and common blue violet in various spots.
Any recommendations for herbicide?

It seems like anything I can use to control either will also take out the St. Aug.

Any pre-emergent recs for next year?

Bump?

Is my only option to nuke it and the grass and plug/sod what I kill?

If you have properly identified the weed as basket grass it appears nuking it is your only option with a St Augustine lawn. Is it a highly shaded area where the problem occurs?

It is partial shade. It is among the St. Aug not it's own patch or anythjng but it is under a tree
