I'm not sure that "do nothing" roster is better than today's, but it could be argued it isn't far off. The bullpen is definitely weaker, but the starters are probably stronger.

——————————————— Hitter of the Week: Dylan Carlson, OF Stats (w/ Memphis): 4 G, 17 AB, 3 R, 7 H, 2 2B, 3B, HR, 2 RBI, 2 BB, 5 K After earning a promotion to Triple-A, the 20-year-old top prospect absolutely mashed in a four-game set against the division-leading Iowa Cubs. He was 7-for-17 with four extra-bas hits, launching his first Triple-A homer in the final game of the series.

There's an interesting article in the Athletic that the Red Sox may have to trade Mookie Betts this offseason because of his signability and that the best fit to make the trade and dollars work would be the Cardinals. I don't see Mo pulling that off but one can dream.

If the Cardinals can make that deal happen without surrendering Carlson or Flaherty, I think its a must-make for them ... unless DeWitt is not willing to give him 8/300. Dombrowski mifht be willing to take on Miller as part of the return, too, to ease some $$ burden for the Cardinals.

Gorman being the higher rated but higher risk prospect would come in handy for the Cardinals in that situation, but with Devers at third, Gorman is limited to first only, which diminishes his value to them.
Flaherty's recent turnaround probably makes him their most untouchable asset, because he's pitching like an ace, then it's Carlson, then Gorman. I just hope that fans realize that 2018 was a massive outlier, and that Betts is probably a 6 win player and not an 8-10 level Trout-type guy.

Carpenter couldn't have looked any more inept there with the bases loaded and 1 out. It was like he was disinterested in hitting a baseball.

Heard on MLB that we are the 4th best team in baseball in defense and base running. No idea where that stat is from or how its measured but we got eyes, we can see its leap years ahead of the total embarrassment in those categories from last year. Last year we were that Braun play,
