****Official 2014 STL Cardinals thread ****
2011 WS Championship
2012 one win from another WS
2013 two wins from another WS title
2014?
  • This is a franchise that has made the postseason 10 times in the last 14 seasons.
  • Reached three World Series in the last decade, and won as many championships (two) the past eight seasons as it did from 1965 to 2005.
  • Our new Manager has more post season experience than any other manager in baseball, except the Giants manager.
  • Three million attendance? Take it to the bank.
  • 60 post season wins since 2004. 20+ wins more than any other team.
  • Only one of the last 14 seasons has been a losing one.

Honestly, he's just coolly rational. It's a really nice trait to have.

The Cardinals are one of the few franchises that appear to have a VP of common sense. It looks like the Yakuza whacked whoever it was in Seattle.

Sometimes you just have to kick the can down the road.

Imagine if the US would have tried to establish a beach head in Normandy in January 1942.

I agree with the move Mo made. What teams were demanding was outrageous. Better to not have a SS of the future. Still need to get one. While we are at it, get a hot shot high school Catcher to take over for Molina in 4 years.

Yep, perfect fit for whats available in the market. RH bat off the bench and insurance if case Wong falls on his face.

Mo is batting 100% this off season.

Not looking good there. Oscar Mercado is probably the best and he was a second round pick last year, is just 18. He could be a ways away. Juan Herrera came from the Indians but hasn't played above low A ball. Greg Garcia is the closest to being ready, and may make the club in spring, but that would be as a backup.

Nicely done. He's still a plus defender, and although he's a touch below average with the bat overall, he hits LHP very well (+112 wRC), so he can platoon with Wong.

Descalso now offers the team little-to-nothing. Kozma would be a better defensive replacement at short, Ellis at second, and although he may defend at third a touch better than Carpenter, you don't want to take that bat out for someone who is so putrid against LHP.

I don't see how you keep descalso now. His bat isn't really that much improved over kozma, and kozma is a much better defender and base runner

Agreed, Where does Descalso play? Backup 3rd when you can't hit LHP?

Whats his place on the team? He's just taking up a spot now.

I'd like to see us add a little pop off the bench now, but that's a bit nitpicky.

I'd prefer to keep kozma, let him pinch run, be a defensive upgrade at short etc.

He doesn't have a spot. With Garcia being on the 40 man, they might as well outright him.

I don't think that is nitpicky. That's a substantial weakness. Gaby Sanchez would be a perfect target. He straight up murders LHP .333/.448/.539 (179 wRC). You can platoon him with Adams at first, but that puts some stress on Craig, as it offers him fewer chances to rest his legs while keeping his bat in the lineup.

Still, I think that's the move.

I don't see why not. Shane Robinson can do all the 4th OF things Jay can, and do them better.
