Expensive gamble. Relievers are making crazy money these days.
I hope it works out. If we can keep Reyes and get Sale I am for it.
Wacha and a couple prospects should do it I hope.

CWS want five top line players for Sale.......the belief is that we aren't even in the running

Super Mario · Nov 20, 2016

I wouldn't want to deplete the farm for Sale, but I'd probably package Reyes with a few other guys for him if the CWS would do it.

Throw Matt Adams in there so we can finally get rid of him.

I don't see the Cardinals getting Sale, but I would love it.

Go get Fowler. Pay the man. Just do it.

Whoever wrote this article is delusional.

Fowler, Sale, Cespedes or Encarnacion?!

I don't see the Cardinals accomplishing ANY of that.

I have zero faith in John Mozeliak at this point. None.

Until he gives me reason to.

Brayan Pena DFA'd no big loss there.

Matt Adams and Luke Weaver plus another guy for Blackmon?
Seems like a fair trade Rockies desperately need a first baseman.
Adams would do well there playing full time. We desperately need a centerfielder.
Seems like a win win .

I root for the Rockies and while I like Weaver, Ryan McMahon played a decent 1B during the fall league. But the Rocks do a surplus of outfielders so that might be a realistic trade

Do you guys think Bud Black will get rid of people, or take a season to see what he has before making any changes?

craiger122003 · Nov 23, 2016

Bud Black is just the next yes man in line. Much like Weiss and Hurdle were.
The GM or owner holds all the power in that organization. I really hope we can get
Blackmon. I think at this point in time Matt Carpenter is our first baseman.

The club has already came out and said that headed into Spring Training Carp is the 1B.

craiger122003 · Nov 27, 2016

Yes pending any new transactions. As a GM having Carpenter is a dream because he can play anywhere in the infield.
I think the only sure guys on the roster right now are Carp, Molina and Waino. Most the other guys are expendable. Well Gyorko
too but only cause he makes so much.

craiger122003 · Dec 1, 2016

McCuthchen is the guy we need. I wonder what we would have to deal for him.

Just a heads up, Cardinals All-Inclusive tickets went on sale today.

I just picked up first row AT&T Rooftop seats for the April 8th, Yadier Molina bobblehead game, against Cincinnati.

craiger122003 · Dec 5, 2016

Nice tickets do they limit or slow roll the drinks? Can you order 3 at the top of the 7th?
At 8 bucks a beer I could only really drink 6 or 7. But with all inclusive can I get 12?
Just sayin I know why you bought your ticket for the guaranteed Yadi bobblehead.

craiger122003 · Dec 5, 2016

In other news the Cardinals have only downgraded the team so far.

As long as you're not being belligerent, they won't cut you off. They'll only give you two at a time, and they're not as big as normal, but they're unlimited.

craiger122003 · Dec 9, 2016

Ok so Fowler, Piscotti and Grichuck will start. I would like to trade for Dyson as a backup
outfielder. We need a guy with his speed. Now we need to shore up the bullpen.

Now it's time to go get Turner.

At this point, I cant see a trade for Dyson unless they could move Jhonny P....and then sign Turner. I said it then and again now, the second half of the Peralta deal is hurting us.

Super Mario · Dec 9, 2016

Fowler got the Mike Leake contract. Basically the exact same deal.

I thought it was a joke for Leake, well, because he sucks donkey dick. But I love it for Fowler.

craiger122003 · Dec 12, 2016

If this is Peralta's walk year you know he will put up numbers. Most players play at there
best on a walk year. Turner doesn't impress me much. I am in the Dodgers network area.
I have seen him play multiple times. A trade for Dyson won't take much only a couple
subpar minor leaguers.
