I think if you could search the 2011 Cardinals thread you'd find I was against the trade. I was so pissed off at Larussa lowering his value. Then we had to take middle relievers to get him out of the locker room. That situation pisses me off even today thinking about it.

Without that trade that really happened. We don't win our 11th World Series. We don't get to experience rally squirrel, Happy Flight and get to see our team win the best WS game ever played, game 6. So, yeah even though I thought it was shit at the time, it worked out pretty damn well.

By your logic, trading Haren for Mulder and the 7+ ERA he gave us in 2006 was a good move for the Cards - afterall, if Mulder wasn't terrible than we probably don't grab Weaver off the scrap heap and he doesn't give us a 5+ ERA while eating some innings during a scramble for the playoffs and eventual title.

You can't just say "oh...well I guess it worked out" and not bother critically examining the deal. Just as Haren for Mulder was a friggen disaster that we managed to overcome, Rasmus for a pile of mediocre crap that the White Sox gave away 4 hours before we traded for them was NOT a benefit to that team. The Cards won despite it, regardless of what dipshit Dan McLaughlin has to say about it.

Greg Garcia now has as many total bases this season as Pete Kozma.

Yes, this is a true fact.

And there's Pete's sterling glove work.

Folks - if you can get yourself into that !@#$ing bible study, you can be on a major league baseball team. That appears to be all there is to it because Pete Kozma damn sure can't actually play major league baseball.

Same here. Then looked it up knowing how little Garcia had played and even more amused it took all of 14 ABs to get to that point.

Kozma makes an error almost every time he plays an inning. He has done nothing in the past besides the Washington playoff series in 2012. Why should he get so much slack to keep batting .080 and make errors?

He never misses a Sunday morning and always does his reading...

Your the one with the faulty logic here. Mulder didn't perform well. To say his performance helped the team makes no sense. Those middle relievers DID perform well and DID help us win a WS.

Mo needs to step in and resolve the situation. When walden, Gonzalez or who ever is next on the 25 man roster, just DFA.
