Could Liberatore and Pallante be heading back to the bullpen in 2026?

If Bloom restocks the starting pitching rotation. He will likely need to try to improve the starting rotation via trades.

Could Shady fork off?

Who would you offer to get a quality starter in return?

Donovan, Nootbaar, Gorman, Arenado (probably part of a package). Also, the Cardinals have some good catcher depth to trade from.

So you don't want a quality starter? Because those names aren't getting
it done.
