From the Woo article on the Athletic:
Frankie Montas, on the other hand, is gathering interest from the Cardinals, as The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal reported Thursday. It’s believed that acquiring Montas, who has made 19 starts for Oakland with a 3.18 ERA and 109 strikeouts over 104 2/3 innings, would require at least two top prospects and potentially a currently rostered player with substantial team control remaining. It’s worth repeating that if Montas’ asking price is so high, wouldn’t it make more sense for the Cardinals to be all in on Soto, and look for smaller, incremental upgrades to their pitching staff?
