Re: Sandy to the Cubs
Sandy to the Cubs means the Cardinal FO hopes the Cubs paid premium for a short term rental of a broken pitcher.
Ditto for Sandy to the Brewers
Sandy to the Cardinals means the Cardinals are confident in Alcantra's health, are highly supportive of a surprisingly competitive team, and have decided to just go for a playoff run. So much that they are willing to give up XYZ for Sandy.
The next question is what is XYZ? Who did the Cardinals give up and how long will CT rue that trade? MO's last "gesture" to Cardinal's Fans.
Would you give up Mathew's? Roby? Walker? Saggese? Who?

Re: Sandy to the Cubs
The Cardinals wouldn't trade their current best hitter, Burleson, for Alcantara, right now.RunSup wrote: ↑01 Jul 2025 17:21 pmThey want Burleson.Shady wrote: ↑01 Jul 2025 17:17 pmWalker or Gorman.RunSup wrote: ↑01 Jul 2025 17:09 pm Sandy to the Cubs means the Cardinal FO hopes the Cubs paid premium for a short term rental of a broken pitcher.

Yes that’s true and when I went back to check his history it’s hard to believe that he’s already been gone since 2017!hugeCardfan wrote: ↑01 Jul 2025 14:48 pmA-bone sergeant!sikeston bulldog2 wrote: ↑01 Jul 2025 11:10 amTakes nothing to do it right.

Hey....no excuses from me. As I recollect we kept our two biggest prospects(Reyes & Flaherty) and proceeded to deal Alcantara AND Gallen.
So much for that! LOL
We need a time machine.

Re: Sandy to the Cubs
Fifth June star he gave up 7 runs vs Arizona. If I was a pitcher I'd rather be in the Miami ballpark than Wrigley. This will be interesting to follow. I'm guessing teams want to see another start or two before they make a deal for a decent prospect.sikeston bulldog2 wrote: ↑01 Jul 2025 10:32 am Good morning.
Does what to the NL.
They lost Steele, and need a cost controlled pitch. Sandy has two years. 2.74 era in four June starts.
Many here entertains the idea of him in STL. But, if he goes to Cubs, what next.
This isn’t my idea. Espn article spells it out.
Thoughts.
Re: Sandy to the Cubs
12 earned runs in last 21 innings.
