Zero reason to keep him. He does nothing for this club. Get the best package you can and move on

Hmmmm...I have to wait and see
Obviously, just reading into it with nothing to support, but should be fun from him makes me think of Cijntje.
Would Cijntje count as 2 pitchers?
IF he needs TJ can he still pitch?

His RH has intrigue.
He's quite a bit better as a RH. I thought it would be interesting if he continued to do both, but didn't mix and match. He could be a starting pitcher as a RH only and in between starts he could be a middle reliever as a LH. That would be crazy.
1 selfish point.
IF he not a part, I'll get to forget how to spell Cijntje

We've all given a lot of thought to how the Mariners and Cardinals match up. It will be interesting to see how Tampa is involved.

Tampa could use some help at the catcher position.

Everything about Cijntje screams middle reliever.

Cijntje confirmed.
Snore. Typical Cardinals move to get a carnival freak show for marketing purposes.

I guess now we have as many top 100 prospects as the Mariners.

Would have been nice to get some position players in this deal…

Do we not get anything from Tampa in this deal?

All we get is an undersized RHP?
