I kept trying to tell people this in the offseason.

Last season he was with the Dodgers. When Furcal went down, did they play Theriot at SS? No, of course not. They brought up Jamey Carroll from the minors. Is Jamey Carroll some hot prospect? Nope - he's a 36 year old scrub with a career OPS of .700. So maybe he's a great glove man? No, in fact Jamey Carroll had played more innings in the OF than SS over the last 3 seasons.

So the Dodgers decided that they'd be better served to play an aging OFer at SS over Ryan Theriot.

The Cardinals, on the other hand, decided to trade the best defensive SS in the NL to make space for him.

Now we're surprised that a pitcher that lacks strikeout stuff is nibbling?

John Mozeliak and Tony LaRussa are absolutely ****ing incompetent.
