CWood21 Posted December 9, 2017 Author Share Posted December 9, 2017 Interesting take by Dave Cameron. I still think Toronto is still too stubborn to move on from Josh Donaldson, even though they should. And I don't think the Cardinals are going to pony up for Machado. He's going to sign some mega-deal next offseason, and it won't be with St. Louis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWood21 Posted December 9, 2017 Author Share Posted December 9, 2017 Nothing really new. Speculation that the Cardinals probably would look to acquire Ozuna. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWood21 Posted December 10, 2017 Author Share Posted December 10, 2017 Really, really like this signing. He got hit for a LOT of home runs this year, probably won't happen as badly as it did this past season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttitansfan4life Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Blah signing but it’s expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still need a closer. There was someone reporting that they were getting close to a deal with Addison Reed, but that doesn't seem likely to happen until after Greg Holland and Wade Davis sign.

He's been one of the best set-up men in baseball last few years. He had a down year last season, but RPs are up/down all the time. I think he's a great bounce back candidate moving out of that bandbox... Fully expect us to add another arm as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holt_bruce81 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 So lets say for the fun of it....we trade for Ozuna and sign Addison Reed to wrap up the offseason. Would you be satisfied? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need a late-inning reliever to add to the mix. Right now, we're looking like this: CL ???

Would you be satisfied? I would be, especially after how hard we pursued Stanton only to have him nix the deal that was in place... -MOTO type bat (Ozuna): check - Multiple late inning arms (Reed + Gregerson): Check -A rotation arm (Mikolas): Check That would be everything on the list the FO preached about adding. However, I don't think we'd be done making moves. I'd still see some more minor moves to be made... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgarrett12486 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Quote According to Bob Nightengale of USA Today, the Cardinals and Rockies are "aggressively pursuing" Rays closer Alex Colome via trade. We could get a resolution on this before the winter meetings conclude... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgarrett12486 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Speculation out of NY that Yankees might be looking to flip Clint Frazier now (w/ the addition of Stanton) for a MLB SP or near MLB ready SP... Hmmm... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
