Cardinals Rumors: Fuentes, Saito, Kawakami, Uehara

Joe Strauss of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch has the latest on the Cardinals' hunt for pitching.

GM John Mozeliak is getting impatient with Brian Fuentes' agents, who are waiting for the market to develop.  They might be waiting for the Angels to jump in, but that won't happen until the Mark Teixeira situation is resolved.  Strauss says the Cardinals have offered two years and $16-18MM, and the ball is in Fuentes' court.  Fuentes, of course, wants three years and more than $30MM.  The Cardinals are reluctant to give him the third year.

Strauss says the Cards "may investigate the availability" of Takashi Saito, though the Dodgers hope to re-sign him.  Strauss also learned that Mozeliak met with the agents for Kenshin Kawakami and Koji Uehara at the Winter Meetings.
