I'm remembering we start the new season's thread when spring training games start. I watched part of yesterdays game.
Liberatore looked fantastic. More mature. Using that improved change to keep RH off the fastball on the outside corner. One outing but damn, he looked ready for the majors. |

Flaherty and Reyes already hurt, it's going to be a long season for those two. Neither of them will even hit 150 innings

The cardinals should be on the horn with Oakland offering Nootbaar, Wynn and DeJong for Frankie Montas.
But they won’t be because Mozeliak is an idiot. |

Why would the A's give up the best available pitcher on the market with 2 years remaining for DeJong, a 45 FV prospect, and a 35+ FV prospect?

Alternatively you could say a 3-4 WAR shortstop with below market years on his deal, a turnkey lefthanded polished hitter and strong side of a platoon plus a fringe top 100 prospect. |

He leaves for FA, all we get is a bottom of the 1st round draft pick, correct? |

If Mo actually gets Montas or Manaea that would be fantastic. Nothing in the history of Mo makes me think that will happen.

The next time Flaherty is healthy long term will be the first time Flaherty is healthy long term.

They'll be lucky if they hit 50 innings combined.

OP please change this to the Official Cardinals/Cubs thread so jd1020 feels at home when he inevitably shits it up.

Should the Royals thread also be changed to Royals/Cardinals thread for when you post in that one, you whiney bitch. I don't even plan on watching many Cubs games this year because they dont deserve my attention when they wont even bother to sign a player like Carlos Correa when they have a Pirates level future payroll commitment. You are the only person talking about them. |
