The STL Cards have a new look, but they are not a very good defensive ballclub outside of Yadi, AP, Hollliday, and occasionally Rasmus. Their difficulty in turning in play balls into outs has to hurt their pitching staff you would think.

I’ve got a bad feeling about this year. Too much mediocrity in key places. Westbrook a good deal at $8 milion? He was never anything but mediocre in his best years and those were at least 4-5 years ago. Cards farm system just isn’t producing like it was 4-5 years ago, and the payroll is way out of whack with the huge contracts for Puhols, Holliday, Carpenter, Wainwright and then the huge dropoff in talent…

Waino is making what, 6/7 million this year? anyway he is a bargain at any price, even when hurt. The lohse contract is what is killing them, 11.5 this year and 12 next. That hurts

I am dying to really hear who you think the Cardinals system was producing 4-5 years ago. The last 3 years have been pretty good for the farm and it is still producing more talent. Here is what has come out within the last three years- Rasmus, Boggs, Motte, Perez(all good relievers), Jay, Craig, McClellan, Wallace(how we got Holliday) just to name a few. If you have any amount of role players or potential star player like Rasmus that the Cards produced 4-5 years ago let me know.

Looking at this two years later, it appears your concerns for 2011 were unwarranted
