interesting that the cubs signed Jon Jay. I wonder if that seals the fate of Fowler leaving to go elsewhere. Though I liked Jon with the cards, i never really felt he was an everyday kinda player. He did hit fairly consistently though.
Yes! That we would option #1 for me.I know there was Charlie Blackmon rumors last winter, I really hope we can get in on him again, he'd be a great pick up with grichuk and piscotty in the corners.
Maness gone now too. This one I don't understand, unless they know something about his elbow that the rest of us don't. He was good when healthy, and cheap.
Holliday to the Yankees. He had a great run in stl, i wish him the best of luck
Put me in the Blackmon corner. I would rather have him before Fowler. Still think we need to put Carp back at 3rd and give Adams a full year at 1rst and let Johnny P back them up. I am not holding out hope that Wong will ever be the best option at 2nd either.

DeWallet needs to open up. With the big $$ contracts gone and that attendance, time to pony up.
Says Cardinals signed Fowler. Hope he doesn't pull a Heyward!

I root for a team that has a really hard time spending money. Teams are giving up top prospects for guys like Desmond and Eaton. It becomes apparent that giving up a first round draft pick is less devastating that cutting loose of Reyes. So the difference is the cash cost of acquiring Fowler.
I fully expect the Cardinals to come in second. Second in races for top Free Agents and second in the NL Central.
So we look to trade Adams for a Blackmon. Really?
So we look within. Pham in left, Grichuck in CF and Piscotty in right. Not terrible but reliably inconsistent.
So how about upgrades in the infield. I was most intrigued by Turner at 3rd. I don't see that happening either.
Bottom line. To catch the Cubs it probably takes both Fowler and Turner.
