Saggesse sucks at fielding

His 2nd error of the game is going to lead to getting swept.
JJW has got to be better than this, right?

Mo made the deals.

Most low minors guys. The one guy at AAA may have some power potential, but who knows.swatski wrote: ↑17 Aug 2025 16:34 pmWhat about this year’s trade deadline haul?smilinjoefission wrote: ↑17 Aug 2025 16:28 pm Cards desperately trying to get something of value from their 2023 dump of players...Prieto, Rom, Roby, Kloffenstein, and Robberse have all bombed and/or got hurt.

We'll have to wait a few years to see...I know they gave away Maton for nothing, Hales is garbageswatski wrote: ↑17 Aug 2025 16:34 pmWhat about this year’s trade deadline haul?smilinjoefission wrote: ↑17 Aug 2025 16:28 pm Cards desperately trying to get something of value from their 2023 dump of players...Prieto, Rom, Roby, Kloffenstein, and Robberse have all bombed and/or got hurt.

What position will JJ play? This team needs better defense. Saggese isn't great at fielding and at times seems to have mental lapses. Gorman can't play third. He was ok at 2nd. Donovan's best position is probably 2nd and JJ has played a lot at 2nd. If the Cardinals trade Arenado or he decides to retire then we have a huge hole at 3rd. My hope is that JJ can fill that hole but he has played very little at 3rd since his freshman year.
What surplus? Donovan only good player out of all those guys. Bloom will get very little for the others.KeeptheRamsinSTL wrote: ↑17 Aug 2025 16:59 pmWhat position will JJ play?

We have too many 2nd basemen and catchers. We need someone who can play 3rd assuming Arenado is traded and we could use some better outfielders. This team needs help with starting pitching as well. Maybe Bloom will trade some of our surplus and fill in some holes.
Mozeliak loves him some quantity. Forget about quality.swatski wrote: ↑17 Aug 2025 17:02 pmWhat surplus? Donovan only good player out of all those guys.

Thank you Bob for your voice of reason! Sadly, I’m sure it will fall on many deaf ears!Bob Kunush wrote: ↑17 Aug 2025 18:58 pm Saggase had a terrible 9th inning. Until then he has been a good fielder. He is a young player who screwed up in a big way in this game. I'm sure it is the first time in history that a MLB player made 2 errors in an inning. By all means his career should be over and his entire defense measured by that one bad inning.
Possibly two years from now you may be writing… Baez is the only one left of the 2025 dump off.swatski wrote: ↑17 Aug 2025 16:34 pmWhat about this year’s trade deadline haul?smilinjoefission wrote: ↑17 Aug 2025 16:28 pm Cards desperately trying to get something of value from their 2023 dump of players...Prieto, Rom, Roby, Kloffenstein, and Robberse have all bombed and/or got hurt.
