GDT : Cards @ Rockies (7/21) ~ 7:40pm CDT

[Melville]

JoJo has arb years left, he's having a good season...he HAS to be on the market.

and he gives up a lead off hit...I jinxed his trade value....sorry

strikes out 2 to end the inning...phew, I'm saved CT infamy and embarrassment

TRADE HIM NOW!!!

Might be the closer in 2026?

No chance.
Only if half a dozen others fail.
Plus, odds are good he won't be a Cardinal 10 days from now.

I pray he's not...he has the real value that teams contending are looking for. The Dodgers and Phillies are on record saying they're looking for relievers with years of control left.

Correct.

[craviduce]

Well.
He got into the outfield

big launch angle, too....44 degrees. Baby steps, he's getting their

[cardstatman]

I'm not advocating this....but if you put JoJo with a Walker or a Winn, you'll get your best haul

OTOH. Oli just used him 2 days in a row as a mopup pitcher.

If there is a close game tomorrow, he should not be available.

This guy is getting moved.

Keep him. He's (bleep) good but brings nothing back. Gotta keep some guys...

[Melville]

If we sweep does that mean were buyers again? lol

Funny thing is, if they trade N/A (again), Fedde, Mikolas, and Mootbaar they will be a better team regardless of the return.
They would miss Matz, Maton, and Helsley if they attempt to sneak into the last W/C spot.
Perhaps not as much as would be anticipated.

You can probably get a decent return for Maton from a contending team that needs bullpen arms. Dude has been lights out this year. I'd trade him.

[cardstatman]

Looking forward to watching several Cardinals in the playoffs again just like 2023... and I guess Edman in 2024.

[craviduce]

hey...we WON a game

If you trade Helsley, somebody must resemble a closer. He's closest to that. Still gotta field a MLB team.

Brewers leading Seattle 3-0, top 6

About to have sole possession of 1st place if they hold on. Good for them

Do they ever lose? WTF????

Brewers and Toronto
LOL

Dear Skip:
In Colorado, in 2025, there is no such thing as an impressive win. Please take this note.

If the Cards are selling, I don't care who is the closer for the last couple months. Give Graceffo, O'Brien, or some other minor league arm a shot.

Not for the rest of the year. You still must think about next year. It's great to sell and get back some prospects but St Louis must be able to field a team next year also.
