@primenova59 You buried the lede, which should have been Dana White betting on UFC matches.

@StefanCaray @Cardinals 7-7 over that last 14-game gauntlet of ATL, MIL, and CHC shows proof of life.

@RayMileur1 I think this series measured the big gap between who the Cardinals are and who they want to be. It will dictate how the they approach the draft and trade deadline, specifically drafting all high floor better developed college players on the first day and sell at the deadline.

[Brian R. St.James @BStJames1]

@RayMileur1 Exactly. “Could” should be a hard stop for anyone who reads it. It’s a meaningless weasel word that provides nothing new. Anything less than probable or likely is a waste of time.

[Brian R. St.James @BStJames1]

@STLCardsNews Yes

@Anna_xb2 Am I also the killer?

@dgoold Please no. He's a gold glove caliber 2B. And his bat plays there. He's likely to be the best 2B in the NL for years to come as an 8 WAR player. His power doesn't project to be a top of the league 3B, where he'll just be another guy.

@EvanDrellich @TheAthletic All fringe elements of a deal that can be worked through easily. But what about the biggest issue in the game, which is MLB’s heavy reliance on local market television revenues that creates huge financial disparities between big and small markets?

@Hoopss Call them the Olden State Warriors

[Brian R. St.James @BStJames1]

@dgoold The only way I'd make a move for a playoff run this year if I'm the Cardinals is if the player can be acquired for cash only and he doesn't come at the expense of anyone on the 40-man roster 26 years old or under.

[Brian R. St.James @BStJames1]

@RayMileur1 This is why I'd caution against moving any pieces for a playoff run this season because a guy like this, a relative unknown in High A, could be that guy who develops into a future star.

[Brian R. St.James @BStJames1]

@SandyMac718 Send a message to those four and Winn, as well as the Cardinals community, that they're the core we're going to build around and sign them to extensions under this CBA. 7-10 years. Like for example the Brewers. Instead of the uncertainty under the new deal. It will do wonders.

@CardTerritory @JohnDenton555 August 15, which is when he'd still be a rookie next season

[Brian R. St.James @BStJames1]

@ShamsCharania Darryn Peterson is the second coming of Kawai Leonard. Just a weird guy who's uber talented. He's going to be maddening. But you can't pass on the talent level. Smart teams will adapt to him. And win a championship with him.

@TheDunkCentral For which team is this comparable assortment of players a winning formula?
