I like the deadline trades

Moz was stuck in past refusing to trade inside division. The division means nothing with the new balanced schedule.

We have not been competitive with Brewers or Cubs since 2021 when we fired our manager for making playoffs 3 of 3 years and going on a 17 game winning streak in 2021 to make they playoffs. Schildt went on to lead the Padres to playoffs 2 of 2 years. Imagine if we had kept him in St. Louis.

Lars was fan favorite but due to injuries etc. never played to potential.
Dustin was rental but so injury prone we were lucky to trade him before he made his annual injury
JoJo is decent left reliever but was going to get expensive as FA.

We got

Dustin/Jo Joe : 2 great outfielders Frias and Ragsdale who were 11 and 13 in Brewers system but became Frias became 4 in Cardinals system Ragsdale 10. Shows how much stronger Brewers farm system is
Noot: 2 good pitchers Eagan Cardinals 17 and Santana Cardinals 22

Outfield is a major Cardinal weakness. We have Walker and ? Lars was not the answer.

I only wish they had traded Gorman too.

It wasn't there at the time. They updated it later. Interesting though.

Pretty obvious they are keeping Baez where he's at to give him AB's as much as possible.

 

[whatahack]

Also want to keep his eligibility for ROY next year.
