yah its a pretty big kick to the stomach that the cardinals didnt add a lefty in the bullpen and maybe another impact bat, but i cant say i didnt expect it. The team's ownership puts way too much value on their prospects.....you would think that the springfield and memphis cardinals are undefeated with all their great players they have down there. Other than colby rasmus and Jaime Garcia, we dont really have any other blue chip prospects (negating bryan anderson, b/c some guy named yadier plays his position). they will take the usual "stay the course" attitude (it worked for bush why not for us?) They will always say that they pursued the breast and the brightests (another bushism), but the opposition was asking for way too much for just a rental player. and of course cardinal loving nation will eat it up. Why would they lie to us??? b/c they are just sitting back counting their money, they have the most loyal fans, who come in droves to every game, are consistently in the top 5-7 in attendance every year, have huge corporate sponsorship, a new ballpark, (all sorts of revenues coming in) and for some reason they never sign key free agents, or never trade (citing the aforementioned reason, or that they dont want to mess with this teams chemistry) well i got a news flash, when this bullpen blows one more close game against a rival, there will be a lynching in stl. maybe not, but how many times can a team fight so hard and be hung out to dry by a depleted bullpen. god i sound like a cubs fan.
What do fellow cards fans think? and any other fan who's team shunned their needs
