In today's game having those mid relievers who can do holds good is crucial. Our mid-season trade for middle relievers in 2011 got us over the top to win a WS in 2011.

What are the pros and cons of this year's Cards?

Yep, use to be an elite hard charging team. Now, we are just playing mediocre baseball. No reason for national coverage except for Pujols return and reminding us fans how far we have fallen in the last 4.5 years.
We are way better with base running and defense. But way worse with starting pitching and offense.Not horrible all the time. Sometimes great baseball. Usually, just so-so around .500 baseball. Same as last year before firing our horrible manager.
