I know you guys are down on it, but I think there’s a very good chance the Cardinals just bought a few years of elite relief pitching at a decent discount.

Miller was his usual self until hitting the DL in May and was never right afterwards, as he tried to gut through being less than healthy and struggled.

Compared to the pricetag in prospects on a guy like Will Smith, just spending some dollars on Miller seems like a better calculated risk to me. He didn’t get a franchise tag, as far as I know, so it’s just a matter of money.
