[QUOTE="hermie1985, post: 1253425, member: 8516"] 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. [/QUOTE]
