Get outta here with that shite. Like you know stats about other players not on your team. Go ahead and pretend you didn’t want to run Giles out of town 3 months ago.

I sure as hell didn’t want GREGERSON closing over him.

Cole is still a thrower with one pitch, w/ a Shitty metagame.

Hopefully a change of scenery and new coaches will help him get the breakthroughs he needs.

Nitpicking at the spelling of someone’s name has nothing to do with the argument at hand. Thanks for trying to play.

Your lack of knowledge has everything to do with the argument at hand.

Cubs avoid arbitration with KB, gets record 1 year, $10.85M deal for 2018.



Also avoided arbitration with Addison Russell (1y$3.2M) Kyle Hendricks (1y $4.125) Justin Wilson (sigh), and Tommy LaStella (1y 950k)

I never pretended to be an Astros fan. What I do know was he was so terrible there wasn’t one Astros fan that wanted him in the game just a few short months ago. But please tell me how wrong I am about that. Or find something else to nitpick about. Maybe if you look hard enough you can find another minor typo somewhere.

Or they’ll just find another Motte or Wainwright in their relief corp, and have them close out another World Series.

Your best starter is Carlos Martinez and your best position player is Matt Carpenter? Tommy Pham? Marcell Ozuna? I would temper the expectations

I like how you try and downplay CMart and Ozuna for how good they are.

And Pham for that matter.

The Cardinals have a roster full of average to good players with zero elite talent. Who on the Cardinals is a top 5 player at their position? How many are top 10? The roster as it is cannot contend for a title and I imagine most of your smarter fans know this but don't want to admit it

What I’m saying is if there are a contender (which I admit is no certainty) a closer isn’t that difficult to find in house. Mujica and Rosenthal were also mixed around during the 2013 run. So I don’t know why some are blindly assuming Gregerson will be closing months before Opening fricking Day.

both are good but not elite and leave the cardinals behind the Dodgers and cubs. It is what it is

The Cardinals aren't going for a title, they are still in a minor rebuild phase with a strong young core. They'll probably get a wild card considering how close they were last year with a much worse team heading to Spring.

Martinez is pretty close to elite, Ozuna is as well. Pham is rated as a top 5 CF.

Then leave. Or ignore me. Or go jump off a bridge. Makes no difference to me.

So who was all this elite talent on those Royals teams just 2-3 years ago?
