Watching the MLB broadcast. Morsei just said Goold told him that the last time the Cardinals were sellers at the deadline was 1990 when they traded Willie McGee. |

Wait till Mo hires his version of Gunther and signs Elvis Grbac before you say that.

I didn’t know the DFA’d Lyons. I thought he was hurt? Going to the minors? Why not just send him to the minors and see if he gets right? I don’t think Lyons was ever going to be a reliable bullpen pieces, but if He never shows anything, what are you out? What am I missing?

Not saying he shouldn't have been dumped but Leake has been exactly that medicore innings eater for Seattle but the Cards are now paying for. Also that meh WAR production that was the high end of what he'd done in the past when the Cards paid him so much.

We are suffering now from Mo's bonehead FA signing's. He has never been good at FA signings. But, his trades are better. Rasmus, Brett Wallace got us the 2011 World Series. So far it looks like in the Ozuna trade we didn't give up All-Stars. Where Mo has screwed up was the trades that didn't happen. Prospects lose value. Perceived talent doesn't pan out. Same with FA. He has went "safe". Vets who have done it before. Overpaid. And then missed on not signing a player, he should have signed(Scherzer). Overall its not a good track record. He has made a ton of money for his boss. Not many business's fire employees who are making them a ton of money. In the end, he's not going anywhere. |

What’s Norris’s trade value right now? We don’t need him for the next 6 weeks. No way are we signing him next year. Someone wants to give us a prospect, why would we not oblige them?

My fiance is pissed about the idea of trading Ozuna -- she bought me the Saturday jersey in his namesake for Christmas.
