Cardinals prospect Drew Rom K’s 10 in debut; Luken Baker hits 32nd homer: Minor League Report
Through five innings against Durham, left-hander Drew Rom fanned 10 batters and allowed two runs.
Cardinals’ bullpen holds fast in second chance, cements first win at Tampa Bay since 2014
Four Cardinals relievers combine to hold Rays to one run in final four innings, making a winner of Dakota Hudson (3-0) by closing out 6-4 victory Wednesday.
With roles up for grabs in Cardinals bullpen, which pitchers can seize late-game auditions?
To secure 6-4 victory against Tampa Bay, Cardinals used four relievers to throw four innings, three of whom are showing what future they might have.
there s a video on the post dispatch web site asking Whitey (at 92 i think)
what the cards should do from just before the trade deadline. fascinating,
pulls no punches.
1. trade flaherty, he already said he wants to go west. trade oneil.
2. sign Montgomery to an extension or trade him with the understanding of
trying to resign.
3. move Contreras to the 7 hole in the line up to take the pressure off and
leave the kid alone. he was a world series catcher, not Yadi, but who is.
4. extend Hicks. you cant just find kids with that velocity and movement.
5. gotta fix Goldy. he strikes out way too much with runners on base.
i might have forgotten some stuff.

I think we are seeing the beginning of the decline of Goldschmidt this year as he has shown slower bat speed through the strike zone and a vast increase in swinging at pitches out of the strike zone.......
I would explore the market for him this off season, knowing he has a no trade clause and can veto any deal.........
Baker is unproven at the MLB level but has shown in his brief time up of getting base hits........
Goldie could fill that # 1 or # 2 spot in the rotation in a deal moving forward.....his defense would be missed for sure but it seems to me we have been seeing Father Time starting to influence the performance this year.......his power is down as is his BA........Trade him and get some solutions for the pitching staff and / or free up some $$$ for a free agent or two...
JMHO

Matthew pitched excellently tonight. I was impressed. The offense was serviceable but was surprised (again) to see Kizner leading the offensive spark. Loved seein Nolan hustling around from 1st to score - I was shocked they sent him but he had an excellent slide. The close could have been cleaner (had two outs and strikes multiple times) but alas the Redbirds win. Having said that, I do like Romero. I just wish he didn’t leave balls up - paint the corners young man!

Cardinals starter Matthew Liberatore dazzles Rays with showstopping win vs. first team
A bright spot for the last-place Cardinals could be the turnaround of the pitching staff as lefty authors career-best outing in 5-2 win at Tampa Bay.
Add to the young arms mentioned above, Hence and Mcgreevey in the high minors,
Plus two of the recent trade pitchers that immediately appear in the top 8 prospects in the

see spots #9, 14 and 17 from the same trades in the link below.
the trades seem to have strengthened a relatively weak minor league.

I agree but lean toward Nola and Snell, and I mean "and". thruel;y need both. But i'd bet (dont have a
beach house)they'd look at the second teir guys like in the past, Matz, Mikolas and past moz signees
and household names, Mike Leake, Jake Westbrook, KH Kim, Bret Cecil, Greg Holland, Luke Gregerson
and lets not forget Andrew Miller. not a great track record.
im too sad to talk Waino.
