Wow, the barrage of articles and commentary leading up to the winter meetings had half the starting lineup heading to greener pastures
AND………nothing
That sure cooled off quickly
Nothing about NA waiving NTC
Nothing about how much WC loves Stl
Nothing more about how Noot is Hotter than Brendan
Nothing about JoJo’s MOMO

8O

Do you think those players won't be traded?

Hes an idiot so probably not. Once donovan is traded he will shut up for about two days then start crying and whining again

#Cardinals left winter meetings with a clearer view of what to chase as returns in trade, and this week sets up to make progress on talks

He thinks bloom should take whatever teams offer for player instead of negotiating so he ignores facts and reality and hates intelligent baseball decisions

you never heard me say he cant take early offers. Any one with half a brain knows Grays market was limited to just a few teams so yea he would take a good deal. And yes you were crying about it then stopped crying for about two days after he was traded before ramping up the whining and crying because he hadnt made another trade yet. If youre too dumb to understand theres a large difference between negotiating to trade a guy like Gray whose NTC and contract limits the number of teams he can and will go to and negotiating for a guy like Donovan who doesnt have a NTC and is relatively inexpensive so he has a much wider market then I cant cure your stupidity lol. He could have traded donovan the day the offseason started i would have been okay with it he can wait until the day before spring training and i will be okay with it because I trust bloom until he proves like Mo did he sucks

The Cardinals are in press-your-luck mode in waiting for an offer they like. They don't actually *have* to trade anybody. But a lot of smoke to wind up doing nothing. I'll wait til mid January to really wonder what happened.

In the mean time other teams are finding other solutions. Find your trade partner with a need,...

- Mets signed Polanco to play 1B. They also traded for Semien to play MI. They are likely out on Contreras and Donovan.
- Braves signed Kim. Likely not a suiter for Donovan.

Competing options for Donovan(LH) and Contreras (RH) bats
- The DBacks signed Merrill Kelley as SP. Would they really trade Marte right now?
- Tucker is still LH FA option for high budget teams
- Bregman is still RH 3B optio with good bat for the same teams.

You sure get fired up about this :lol: :lol:
Idiot
Stupid
Any more great adjectives you want to throw out there…..and yes you did say that Bloom would be a “fool” to jump in the trade market so early after WS ….he needs more time to look at all options, he didn’t have time during the season blah blah and that the Winter Meetings were the time for action. Shall I query those posts or can we agree on your statements.
Again, this post is about the chirping dying down significantly
