But hey, you can bet on the next deal that's likely to be made. Who's our 1st round pick from 2 years ago and who is the Indian's 3rd best shortstop?

That's right folks - a Luke Weaver for Erik Gonzalez trade is as good as done.

Don't say that!

I'm making a late Summer trip to Wrigley and want I to remain optimistic about this season!!!

I fully expect half the team to be on the DL by the All-Star break. It's kind of the norm being a Cards fan lately. If they can be at least a WC team this year call me impressed, this could be a down year.

Sucks getting old. We had a great run. I'd say the best one in the 125+ years of Cardinals history. Taveras getting drunk and killing himself cost us a #3/#4 hitter for 6 years. Then cost us a #3/#2 starter.

If Piscotty and Grichuk can step up and perform at their ceiling we will still be just as good as anyone else. We have pitching and a bullpen. Lots of if's thats for sure.

Cardinals signed Ruben Tejada for $1.5 mil.

He's not a world-beater, but he's probably the best depth option we've had at short in ages. He can give us acceptable play from the position while Peralta is out.

Good signing.

yeah Matheny has already said the spring training games rotation will not include Diaz. Mo said he can be in AAA ready to go.

I'm surprised he signed so cheap. No performance escalators in case he does well? Nothing but upside here for us. We pay guys $5 million to ride the bench and pinch hit.

DVR'd the game today so I could watch Martinez pitch. He pitched against the starters for Miami. I know ts spring training but Carlos was so good already. He is going to win a Cy Young award someday.

It looks like he is camouflaging that slider better. Was spotting the fastball low and away to leftys. Seemed he pitched higher up in the zone for some reason. Maybe thats what they were working on today?

Slider/97 fastball/change. Their timing was off all 5 innings he pitched.

He should be able to make it to 200 innings and stay strong in the playoffs, if we can find enough offense to get us there.

As a Pirates fan, I think we are going to have a much tougher time this year keeping up with your Cardinals and the Cubs. Not sure we will make the playoffs this year.

Have you guys lost many FA's or signed/traded for many?

Most importantly, he looks like a man this year.

The last couple of years, he's looked slight; like a boy out there playing with grownups. This season he appears to added some thickness to his frame and that could easily help him maintain his health and his stuff throughout the season.

Pitchers break down - it's what they do. High effort pitchers like Martinez doubly so. But it appears he's taken positive steps towards getting through the season strong.

The next thing to work on for him needs to be his efficiency. He's still going to get strikeout happy at times and I think if he wants to be a 200 inning pitcher, he needs to work on getting guys out earlier in counts and only really dialing his stuff up when he needs it.

And we need Mike to not be scared to put them out there, if he rides with Moss or the fat boy at first if they're not performing that's going to be a problem. 1st has been our most under achieving position for the last few seasons IMO and if Piscotty or Holiday can do it let them do it
