So much this. For everyone complaining about no moves, it was the right thing to do. I went into today fully expecting Gorman or Carlson to get moved for some shitty starter.

That counts as a hit with RISP. No run scored but time to celebrate.

Cardinals scouting department must be really bad at their jobs.
Happ swings and misses like 70% of the time on high fastballs with a <.050 ISO in the upper 3rd and they just get him to swing at strike 2 helmet level and come back with a low curveball on the next pitch. |

Ya but there's really no need to even set him up. He was demoted because you can just feed that pitch to him one after the other and the worst that will happen is maybe once in a blue moon he'll bloop one down the line but the most likely result is that he will strikeout swinging. It got so bad last year that he just stopped swinging to the point of having the lowest swing% of any batter in the game by a mile.

To match the Astros package, they'd have had to give up something like Gorman, Woodford and Fernandez. And they'd have had to take on $100 million in salary. The Cardinals can excuse doing one of the above but not both. Not with their system being as ungodly mediocre as it is and the team not really being championship caliber anyway, even with Greinke. The Astros can make that move because they're loaded at the major league level AND have a farm system that is both deeper and has a higher end than ours.
