Pozo to be re-signed

[82birds]

update:

6:57pm: St. Louis officially announced that Pozo has been re-signed on a major league contract. It’s a split deal that pays different rates depending on whether the backstop is on the MLB roster or in Triple-A, according to Jeff Jones of The Belleville News-[political party]. This pushes their 40-man roster count to 38.

Most of you guys are the same apologists that praised MO’s poor trades, deals, and most importantly…..INACTION

If he’s supposed to be dealing and has at least one of the hottest commodities on the market, then waiting for teams to fill whatever need they have is one less team in the market.

“Waiting for the market to establish itself” was one of the most asinine MO quote EVERY offseason….
Make the market….don’t wait for it to be made and half done

“It’s only a couple weeks after the WS”……Tell that to the Rangers and Mets

Yep 22 teams in on Donovan. Take the first offer. Sounds like a good business decision to me.

Are the offers being exchanged via Pony Express??

Well you’re never going to be pleased with what anybody in charge of the cardinals ever so it’s not a surprise. I mean bloom just took over and you are already whining and complaining about him just for making a depth move and for not taking the first trade offer for Donovan so you
Will continue to cry no matter what

Pieces are moving and falling into place……he needs to get in the game before all the chairs are gone…..
You do understand that???

I understand that only an idiot rushes to make moves. He needs to make the best deal possible not the fastest deal possible that would be an idiot move. But I have full faith you will whine and cry no matter what he or anyone else in charge of the cardinals does. In all of baseball there has been very little movement there’s not going to be a lot of movement until the December meetings

POZO——-these Bloom deals……..feel amazingly like MO deals

Typically, uninformed post from a typically uninformed poster

So...the official team Facebook says it's a major league deal.

Hmmmm....

YES ! Pozo's new deal is a major league contract . The Post article posted just over half hour ago stated this :

By allowing Pozo to become a free agent, the Cardinals were able to restructure his contract and its structure in the minor leagues. Had he stayed on the roster, roster rules would have established what his contract looked like and his minor league salary as a player with major league service time. It's a two-way contract, and Pozo has options remaining, which means the Cardinals could use him at Class AAA Memphis.

Less hmmmmmm now

Also looks like we brought back Robberse and signed the unfortunately named Scott Blewett to a minors deal.

Sounds like to me that Pages or Crooks has become expendable.

Crooks is going back down, he isn't ready like the rest of our young catchers.

Oz I used to think you had a pretty good take on the game……your repetitive “cry no matter what” is lazy and weak…..
Bloom needs to push the matter with his mid level MLB trade chips….dazzle the other party’s……and get it done BEFORE those spots are closed
No one thought the Rangers were offloading…..that maybe closes a couple doors that might have been looking at Cardinals. Why aren’t they waiting???
Apparently Seager on block too….losing partners…perhaps another team comes out tomorrow and wants to dump….more doors closed
Not sure how ya’ll can herald ALL these team wanting a Donovan and THEN claim it’s too early for action……

This is the first thing I’ve written about Bloom criticizing……so therefore all other comments were about MO. If you want to defend that chitshow have it at

[cardstatman]

Pages, Herrera, Pozo, Crooks, Bernal

They better trade a catcher!

They also now have 21 position players and only 17 pitchers, which includes several pitchers who will still be injured on opening day.

Pozo and Pages are nothing more than a guy to give the starter a day off……hardly any value in a trade and can find any day of the week if looking for one.

[cardstatman]

Also looks like we brought back Robberse and signed the unfortunately named Scott Blewett to a minors deal.

Scott Blewett has never been very good in AAA much less MLB.

Fine for AAA, I guess, but Blewett was sidelined in mid-July 2025 with right elbow discomfort. He was truly awful from June to September.

I thought you had a pretty good take on the game but when you start slamming bloom for signing pozo and comparing him to mo when he just took over the team there are few big moves made until the December meetings when things really start heating up and think he should trade Donovan for the first offer just to get something done instead of getting the best deal possible yea I think you are just complaining just to complain. If I think his offseason sucks I’ll say it at the end of the offseason I’ll give him the offseason before I pass judgment on it I’m not going to slam him over signing pozo and start comparing him to mo because he didn’t make a panic move and trade Donovan for the first offer just because he’s scared
