Cardinals ship Adolis Garcia to Rangers for cash
Cash. I would have preferred getting a decent Class A prospect.
I liked him but I never really saw the Cardinals talking seriously about him as a part of their 2020 or 2021 plans so I wondered where he would end up.
The interest the Cardinals tried to stoke in some of their outfielders through trade talks at the Winter Meetings finally resulted in a pre-Christmas move Saturday that sent a young slugger to Texas.
To complete a series of roster moves that began by signing lefty Kwang Hyun Kim, the Cardinals sent outfielder Adolis Garcia to the Rangers in exchange for cash considerations. Garcia, 26, had been removed from the Cardinals' roster to make room for Kim, and that gave the Cardinals time to try and trade the righthanded hitter or slip him through waivers.
