Yep, maybe Martinez, DeJong, some of our relivers but what can you get for them even in a sellers market? Probably not worth it, your selling low on all of them, hang on to them and hope they turn it around.
They had better not be talking about Liberatore/Gorman level guys. With those guys, next year we can field a respectable team.

Lash: What are both of your favorite and least favorite picks from the first round? 10:55 Eric A Longenhagen: House was great value, thought Hoglund was too. Feel like McGreevy was a reach. Sweeney too, but I worry we underrate him. I feel more comfortable with my McGreevy eval. |

Cardinals select college right-hander Michael McGreevy with the 18th pick
By Keith Law July 11, 2021 at 8:15 PM CDT The Cardinals go conservative at 18, taking a command right-hander with average stuff in Mike McGreevy. McGreevy never walks anyone -- he faced 425 batters this year and walked 11, a 2.6 percent rate that might make Carlos Silva jealous. He's touched the mid-90s but doesn't pitch there now, working mostly at 88-92 without a clear plus secondary pitch. The Cardinals may hope they can squeeze some more velocity out of him, as the Angels have done with lefty Reid Detmers, their first-rounder in 2020. This is also a complete 180 from the Cardinals' first-round pick last year, when they took raw, toolsy Georgia high school hitter Jordan Walker, whom they just promoted to High A at age 19. |

I’m hearing rumors of a trade? WTF? With 62 games left San Diego is 14 games over .500 for the last playoff spot.
If SD just plays .500 ball the rest of the way the Cardinals need to go 43-19 the rest of the way. In what reality is that possible?

If Mo entertains trading any of our already thin list of near major prospects he should be fired on the spot. Trading Gorman, Liberatore, Walker, etc. would be worse than the boneheaded decision to extend Carpenter. Let everyone get healthy, play out this season (decide what you want to do up the middle at SS and 2B) let the dead weight contracts go finally…Carpenter, Martinez, Miller and use the money to fill holes and add depth. We ARE not one or two players away. |

Realistically you have to pick up a game a week on them and or dominate the match ups with them. Well for this team that's unrealistic as well. And any trade is likely to **** the Cardinals, Mo got his Arenado deal, he wont hit another one out of the park. |

Came across my feed. Local TV station. No reputation as a fake news purveyor.
https://fox2now.com/sports/st-louis-...k-village/amp/ ST. LOUIS – The St. Louis Cardinals will now require fans to wear masks at Busch Stadium and while visiting indoor spaces at Ballpark Village. The move comes after St. Louis City and County issued a mask mandate earlier this week.

Looks like the Cards traded for a very shitty old starter in JA Happ. He has an ERA just under 7 with around a -2 WAR on the year.
Gave up Gant and a minor league reliever in Evan Sisk. Nice work Mo. |
