Those DFAs are already factored in. It's the 8-12 prospects that need to be added for the rule V draft during the offseason.

JJW would not sell many extra tickets! I bet if you asked 10 random fans at a Cardinals game who the Cardinals top prospect is - nine of those would not even know the Cardinals top prospect!

Say's the moron who's been pining for JJ to be here for months.
lol more upside than drew had? lol Bernie was day drinkingrockondlouie wrote: ↑14 Aug 2025 12:54 pm From Bernie:
Bernie dives deep into the rise of St. Louis Cardinals top prospect JJ Wetherholt, explaining why he believes this isn’t another overhyped call-up like Jordan Walker or Nolan Gorman. From his elite plate discipline to his athleticism and maturity, Wetherholt has shown he’s MLB-ready now. Bernie compares him to J.D. Drew and Matt Carpenter, with even more upside. He debunks the 40-man roster excuse and says Wetherholt must be called up by September 1 to help reignite fan interest and kickstart the rebuild under Chaim Bloom.

The Cubs tanked for 5 years.smilinjoefission wrote: ↑14 Aug 2025 09:15 am Sadly the Cubs are a better run organization than the Cards.
The AAA only stat is odd. What about JJ's 678 PAs in a major college program vs. 0 PAs for Cassie (who is only 67 days older)?Futuregm2 wrote: ↑14 Aug 2025 09:41 amLet’s see:rockondlouie wrote: ↑14 Aug 2025 09:12 am As soon we get past whenever that date is next week that's keep his 2026 rookie status, there's NO REASON whatsoever for the Cardinals not to bring up JJW!

The Cubs plan to recall outfielder Owen Caissie from Triple-A Iowa, a source confirmed Wednesday night, adding their top prospect to the active 26-man roster in the wake of catcher Miguel Amaya’s ankle injury.
Caissie, a native of Burlington, Ontario, could make his major-league debut in his home country Thursday, as the Cubs face the Blue Jays in a rubber match. Amaya is headed to the injured list with a sprained left ankle, manager Craig Counsell said after the Cubs’ 4-1 win Wednesday.
Caissie, 23, has posted a .966 OPS in Triple-A this season. The 6-foot-3 left-handed hitter leads the I-Cubs with 22 home runs this season, and he represented the Cubs in the All-Star Futures Game last month

Owen Cassie: 953 PA in AAA
JJ Wetherholt: 104 PAs in AAA
Cassie has literately been there for 2 years and had an .848 OPS last year, not exactly bad. If he was in the Cardinals system people would have been screaming for Mo to be fired for letting him waste away in AAA.
