OF Logjam: Who Goes?Rasumus shouldn't/won't be traded. Down the road HE could be that impact bat you're wanting Redbird. You shouldn't trade away a potential anchor in your lineup for the next decade for a quick, considerably more expensive fix. I could see a couple other prospects getting traded this offseason, but not Colby.
I could see Schu going in a trade. I don't think TLR will flip Ankiel. They've got a father son type of relationship and it just doesn't seem all that likely. I think getting two draft picks for him after next season would be better than trading him anyway. You make good points though, the OF is pretty full. AAA and AA should be loaded next season.

My prayers are with Mr. Molina, Yadier, Bengie, Jose, and their families in this tough time.

He was really good in April, awful in May, pretty good in June, average in July, mediocre in August, and bounced back with a good September. [b:f981524d21]Overall, he was either really good, or average to awful. That evens out to mediocre.[/b:f981524d21][/quote:f981524d21]

The only downside is that the Memphis Redbirds operate as a not-for-profit organization, which will probably no longer be the case once the big club moves in.[/quote:57ba19a1d1]
According to the local news, the non-profit status will be one of the factors causing delays in the sale. There are quite a few legalities to be worked through. [3 total replies]Email from Bill DeWitt III[quote:84fedc9e75="Optimum"][quote:84fedc9e75="YawkeyWay"]At the end of the day, he and the rest of the owners are running a business, as hard as it may be to look at it that way.
If he only cared about profits, he would avoid things like letting fans bring food into the ballpark (for a season ticket holder, that's the potential loss of a $4 hot dog and $5 soda x 81 home games a year = $729) and the super-cheap First Pitch ticket program.
If you don't like how the Cardinals are run, then become a fan of the Yankees. I hear their spending has gotten them a lot of rings recently.[/quote:84fedc9e75]
Iwould like to stay a Cardinal fan! Thank you
I would like to see DeWitt show me he cares in a personal way about winning![/quote:84fedc9e75]
I think the current ownership has done more then show us they want to win. we have had quite a few winning teams in the last 10 years if everyone has forgotten. you have to rebuild sometime you cant always be on top. Look at the Yankees. They need to rebuild there rotation and other parts of there club and they have deeper pockets then the cardinals do. Everyone has been spoiled lately with how much the cardinals have won. When i was growing up the cardinals had 1 playoff run till the 2000's. its not all about your team winning its about the game. going and watching your favorite players and just seeing the unexpected. There are only a few people that have control over the money and i dont think any of them are on here. I would love the cardinals to win the world series every year and be in the playoffs every years. is it going to happen not a chance you have to roll with the highs and the lows. just enjoy the game there are more important things in life then what someone is doing with the cardinals money. [30 total replies]Guess 09' rosterI hope we get another arm for the rotation, I'm just not counting on it. Lohse will be our biggest FA signing, I think. I believe we'll grab another cheap arm, either a "swingman" or a bounce-back option, like Carl Pavavo or Brad Penny. First thing I'd do is look for a SS, and grab a few lefties. [22 total replies]Jeremy AffeldtIf it was up to me, Perez would be the closer next year. But Mo, LaRussa, Dunc want to give him more seasoning. My guess is we sign a guy like Dan Wheeler or Doug Brocail cheap for a year until Chris develops. [20 total replies]"ST. LOUIS" on Road JerseysOchoa wrote:[quote:d5e962b717]

I don't want to stop signing projects because a few didn't work. Low risk High reward are great things to shoot for. I'm not saying we sign only those guys either. But a big free agent a couple projects probably will work for me. The core is there minus a piece or two.[/quote:ca478e60f5]
I agree, what I'm sick of is relying on project players to save your season. [60 total replies]CCH Report Card, Part IV (Relievers and Team)I'd have to say that the relief failed due to a couple factors. One, they didn't have much help from the starters. The starters only averaged 6 innings per start. That's average mind you. That means there were several times they didn't make it to 6. You put that much pressure, wear, and tear on the BP and it will hurt over the long haul.
Second, we don't have the best talent in the world in our BP. There were plenty of individual failures.
Third, not having a "closer" (I hate that moniker), didn't help the stability of the BP.
I'd give the bullpen an overall score of F.
*** I'd give most teams in the league bad scores for pitching starters, or relievers. I just can't seem to accept the notion that a starter is considered having a good start if they go 6 innings. Relief pitching seems to be a widespread hit or miss throughout the leagues. In my opinion, a starter should go 7 minimum. I'm not saying that they should go CG like they used to, but there is a certain laziness that has crept into pitchers over the decades. A setup man, and "closer" (yuk), is all you should need in any given game. So, take my pitching grades with a grain of salt. :wink: I'm biased towards the past.
