Ours is $1 billion vs. the Phillies $2.5 billion. That's a MASSIVE difference.

Yeah, the Cardinals have money to spend and they can absolutely afford Machado or Harper. But the Phillies can afford both of them and since they didn't spend the last 18 months spinning their wheels but rather appear to be actively building toward something (whether real or imagined, that's the perception), they have a better chance of attracting FAs, IMO.
