Well done and dusted. All three traded. For the complainers on both sides it was what was expected and it got done. Won't know if any of the prospects have value for a while yet but at least they didn't sit on expiring contracts.

Not sure who pitches from the pen the rest of the year, Kinda emptied the room.

Maybe in a pinch , Oli could put Dusty Blake out there in the pen. He tells every other pitcher what to do . He could demonstrate to the remaining guys how to pitch .

PS Maton, Matz, & Helsley sounds like a law firm.. Their tag line 'If you need 'relief' from the IRS, call us ! We are specialists !

Granillo, Svanson, Graceffo and maybe one or two others have been on the Memphis to St. Louis shuttle. They have done fairly well in their chances. Maton may be missed the most. He was nails as the set up man. Time for the young guys to take the bull by the horns.

Those three depart St. Louis, and Cardinals get back pitchers Mason Molina - 22 year old LH at A level, Skylar Hales - 23 year old RH at AAA, Nate Dohm - 22 year old RH at A, and Frank Elissalt - 23 year old RH at A. They also get 1B/3B Blaze Jordan - 22 year old RHB at AAA and Infielder Jesus Baez - 20 year old RHB at A.

o brien has been excellent and they have some good young arms who will likely be fine
