There are rumors that the Cardinals would consider dealing O'Neill for Will Smith.
I mean **** me in the face at that point. That deal would be STAGGERINGLY stupid. I mean just unbelievably idiotic. 1 !@#$ing season of a lefthanded reliever for 6 years of a 30+ HR outfielder who will take a walk and can play CF in a pinch.
I'd say they aren't that stupid but...they are.
As for the Dodgers - what gives the Dodgers the ability to flip Martinez to an AL team if the Cardinals can't? Aren't they effectively talking about a 3-team deal in 2 parts at that point? Is Mozeliak still chafing about that time he gave up a cleanup hitter in a trade that involved Corey Kluber and he ended up with that piece of shit Jake Westbrook?
I mean I know his history with 3-team deals isn't great....well y'know what, his history with 2 team deals isn't all that stellar either.
Just go back to be, Moe. This job's beyond your pay grade.
