Not a bad 1st outing for Carp! #babysteps -Teryn “@Cardinals: Chris Carpenter - 2.2 IP, 6 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 2 BB, 5 K (54 pitches/38 strikes).”

Cardinal Red and White, on Fox HD, at night, is so glorious.
I havent watched the whole game (went and watched Pacific Rim with the Pregnant wife, last outing before the baby, movie is awesome, go see it), saw Craig bat in the last inning, what else have I missed? |
So, I was thinking about how the hell we are going to get a SS this year. I started looking around the league, while there isn't really shit out there for cheap, but I did notice how far back the Jays are and that brought me back to thinking about Reyes.
I know some guys weren't/aren't high on him, he's injured alot etc, but I think/thought he really fit in well with this bunch from a philosophical standpoint as well as in the clubhouse. So, I dug a bit deeper. While I do really like Reyes, his contract is just, well, bad. I don't see that as an option. |

I just don't see it.
There are too many teams ahead of them in the East. The Orioles, Rays, Red Sox, A's, Rangers, and potentially Yankees are all fighting for 4 spots. I don't think the Jays can jump them. |
Also, if I'm looking at this right, we have 42 mil coming off the books next year with 4 guys.
Carp Beltran Furcal Westbrook So there is some money there. |

I'd be looking to make a deal with Wong, Jenkins and potentially Wacha right now.
I think Beltran walks after the year, or gets a cheapish deal. I'd prefer to let him walk and just park Craig in left and let Tavares play CF. Or keep Beltran and just go with Holliday, Jay/Taveras, Craig/Beltran as my 5 OF's. |

Beltran has to walk: Taveras is ready, and he'll get you a first round pick. Also, I'm not opposed to trading Wong, but I'd hate to part with Wacha, and last I heard, Jenkins was on the DL.
