Thanks


However, doesn’t look like a Bligh deal to me…. and it really doesn’t Madris much either.

I know this is just a minor league deal, but why? Another LH batting OF/1B whom the Cards already have plenty of in their system. Looks like something Mo would do - like the immortal Taylor Motter signing............

More like Bleh Madris.

I'll leave...

He'll turn 30 later this month and has managed a .204/.273/.286 batting line in parts of three major-league seasons. Madris should be ticketed for Triple-A Memphis to begin the upcoming season.

More like blech. Or blah. Or just bad. Anyway spring training signing who cares. Just a guy.

I thought the point of trading Donny was that he would be 30 before our next competitive window?!? And now we go get a 29 yo with no talent or shelf life to begin with???

He won’t be in the majors

And, of course, he's a lefty bat....seemingly mediocre power.

Setting up a Burleson trade.
