11 Time WS Champion St. Louis Cardinals Thread

Need to sweep Philly. Tough 10 game road stretch coming up with Vinci and Pitt in the mix. Could put a little breathing room between them if we can win both series.

Cards in the market for a shortstop?

"12:29am: The White Sox have as many trade
chips as any deadline seller in the majors
and they're putting a high price tag on their
key players. According to Mark Gonzales of
the Chicago Tribune, the Sox recently turned
down a trade offer from the Cardinals that
would have sent shortstop Alexei Ramirez to
St. Louis in exchange for right-hander Carlos
Martinez , one of the many elite prospects in
the Cards' minor league system. Gonzales
said the deal was "involving" those two
players, so it was likely not a one-for-one
swap."

Not sure who else the White Sox would have included, but thankfully that was declined.

3rd place team has more wins than a lot of 1st place teams haha

Thought that was a little bit much...Ramirez isn't much more than what Kozma already provides

Cards didn't offer Martinez

Pass on that trade unless Martinez isn't the prospect the Cards are hyping him up to be. U can bet the Sox r trying to get Taveras somehow.
