The better question is when was the last time the Cardinals needed a big deadline move
Every team at the deadline has holes, so every team could use a big name player. However, not every team goes for that... Cardinals have not in recent years, Tampa Bay, Giants, Pirates, etc have all gone for lower tier moves really.
Just because you don't go for the big name player doesn't mean you couldn't use the big name player. Like imagine how scary Cardinals could be if they could trot out Cueto, Matinez, Lynn, Lackey, wacha right now while Garcia continues to come back. Then move Martinez or wacha to the bullpen to keep their innings in check.

Cardianls should of made moves the past 2 years for bench help, especially a guy with pop.

they have come into playoffs not hitting and nothing on the bench to give a spark. They got lucky the pitching kept Dodgers off the board.

Reynolds gives them that now, but they need another bat, possibly some one to play 1b. Adams is not the future.

It's not a need though, as a world series favorite with best record all year there is no reason to trade away top prospects, team is title ready as constructed. No need to wager more of the future when you're set as is.
