We were worried about Pujols taking up space in the lineup.

Edit: Just checked and Stanton is the only one that got an opt out. I'm not really including Arenado because to me he fits in that tier 2 in that he got 8 years sub 300 and would have ended at age 35 without the extra year tagged on by the Cardinals. Cole got an opt out as well, but his can be voided by the Yankees if he exercised it by adding another year onto the deal. Given what Bryant got this offseason, which was insane, and if Arenado continues on a MVP pace, he'd be stupid not to opt out. He'll have $144M left. I can't see a scenario in which he got less on the market, especially when he would easily be the best player in it. Last edited by jd1020; 05-03-2022 at 10:07 PM.. |

He stays with the Cardinals, he makes $200 million in his career. That’s pretty damn good. But he goes to the Dodgers? Maybe he gets another $100 million? |

There's a long road between here and there but previous history tells us the Cardinals won't make him the same type of offer some of the other big money clubs will. As long as Mo can say he tried, the ownership is good.

Yes, but there's a difference between cant and wont.

He always knows EXACTLY how much to offer to come in 2nd place and tell the fans he made an effort. |

Yepez is off to a hot start. Eventually pitchers will figure him out but love to see another live bat

Guess it’s an improvement that Dejong only killed the lineup for a year. But, why is Gorman still in AAA? I heard the broadcast propaganda straight from the front office, we can’t mess with our defense by degrading two positions by moving Edman to SS. How about upgrading your offense? Hey, Mo have you seen the box scores lately? |
