But if I'm moving a package of Taveras AND Martinez, it better damn well be for more than Profar. |

If I were moving those 2 in a package, I'd add in Wong and go get a stud. Personally, with the success the Cardinals have had with their own prospects, I'm not keen on moving anyone, but if you can do it for a cornerstone, you do it. |

I have hopes that in a few years, we go outbid the Angels for Trout.

Hamilton signed through 2017 and the deal is heavily backloaded. The final year is worth a staggering $32 million. Which means that in 2018, the LA Angels will have shed a $32 million payroll obligation from the year before. Guess when Mike Trout becomes a free agent? Yup, 2018. And don't think for a moment that the Angels didn't have that in mind when they offered Hammy the deal they offered him. Folks - the bidding on Mike Trout starts at $32/million because the Angels clearly worked that into their salary structure. You really think the Cardinals are going to be able to beat that?

Yup. There is 0 chance that the Cardinals ever sniff Trout unless there is a Joe Horn situation in that locker room, or if Moreno ends up in financial straits like McCourt (and fat chance of that).

I don't think the Cardinals would or will ever go outbid a team like the Angels for someone. It's not economical for them IMO.
However, if Taveras is what they think he is, it won't matter. I'm looking forward to the future potential rotation we can toss out there. Waino Miller Martinez (if he works out) Wacha (if he works out) Lynn/Rosenthal |

O, they don't need him. They are the Cardinals they just reload.

Sure, they don't "need" him, but I don't think anyone wouldn't take him.
