Re: I'd like to ask Bloom this
This is not the time to do it. We don’t need to mess up another high end prospect pushing them to the outfield right before coming to the majors.
If you want to do it, let him get comfortable in the Majors and try it in a few years.
Re: I'd like to ask Bloom this
So what do the Cardinals do with Donovan, Gorman and Saggese in addition to Wetherholt for two infield positions? Also Arenado. But I'm assuming he won't be a Cardinal in 26. Seems to me, there's an infield logjam.Stlcardsblues wrote: ↑29 Aug 2025 18:06 pmThis is not the time to do it.

Re: I'd like to ask Bloom this
there is no logjam when you're the #1 pick and Top 10 prospect in all of baseball. JJ takes precedent...he'll play 2B or 3B over Saggese, Gorman, Donovan.Shady wrote: ↑29 Aug 2025 18:09 pmSo what do the Cardinals do with Donovan, Gorman and Saggese in addition to Wetherholt for two infield positions?

Re: I'd like to ask Bloom this
Saggese is a bench utility guy going into 2026. I do believe Arenado is moved at this point.

Re: I'd like to ask Bloom this
Nootbaar, Contreras and, possibly, Gorman are the ones needing to be traded for a bona fide starting pitcher and power hitting corner outfielder.. Let's see how Bloom handles this.JohnnyMO wrote: ↑29 Aug 2025 18:19 pmSaggese is a bench utility guy going into 2026. I do believe Arenado is moved at this point.

JJ could very well be a future All Star. He stays at 2B or 3B.
Besides no reason to jump the gun. Let JJ emerge.
Plus there could easily be other moves.
Re: I'd like to ask Bloom this
Cardinals may have to eat most of his salary, but I think they’ll do what it takes to get him off the roster. Where he goes, hard to say. Somewhere that is okay with a defense first 3B veteran.scoutyjones2 wrote: ↑29 Aug 2025 18:21 pmWho would want the damaged goods and poor hitting Nado?JohnnyMO wrote: ↑29 Aug 2025 18:19 pmSaggese is a bench utility guy going into 2026.

I see plenty of responses to my OPs/posts. I don't see my Add foes because you wore out your welcome with me.

Re: I'd like to ask Bloom this
You can put Conteras being traded next to JJ in centerfield in the fun for you to think about but not happening in 2026 file so may as well accept things as they are.Shady wrote: ↑29 Aug 2025 18:23 pmNootbaar, Contreras and, possibly, Gorman are the ones needing to be traded.

Agreed a LH bat needs traded, two in fact. I hope Noot is one and suspect he will be. I’d personally rather see Donny or Burleson traded over Gorman, but I’m good with whoever gets the most back, which I think is Donovan.

Explore trading an infielder for much needed pitching.

Re: I'd like to ask Bloom this
Wrong! I care! I think Shady should post a thread every day that has his complete list of current foes. I’m always on the edge of my seat waiting to see who he foe’s next.
