I don’t want to resign Goldschmidt. And I want to trade Dylan Carlson and Lars Nootbar.

Cardinals always get the better of their trades! Beware if u deal…I still regret loss of Adam Wainwright.

I like the Zach Eflin idea and some of the other guys you mentioned. I personally don't think the Cardinals have the pieces to acquire any of the players. The farm system is depleted and unfortunately I believe the smartest thing the Cardinals should do for the benefit of the organization is to sell. They need to trade Helsley for the best young pitching available. The Cardinals will not give Helsley the money he will be owed after this awesome season and they don't have enough pitching to field the MLB roster for next year.

Jordan has been a power disappointment for sure BUT it was a big organizational mistake sending him down his rookie year bc of lack of power and launch angle. He was hitting relatively well for a rookie. Ridiculous decision. I don’t think he’ll ever recover in this organization.

my cardinal lineup1 winn2 nootbar3donovan 4 burrelson 5contreras 6 gorman 7herrara 8edman 9 siani or carlson bench saggese preito koperniak baker...cut goldy and nado and buy an ace pitcher and some bullpen depth

bench nado and dfa goldy you do that and the cardinals will take off those 2 are a 2 ton weight around the team

Hey Steven Matz is about to be an All Star

I don't expect much offensively from Edmond till next year. Nootbar is another O'Neil. Not available. Walker is a disappointment.

Nootbar is brittle. Trade him.

Lowe is too expensive.

No. What we have will not work. We do not get to face. The Marlins and the Nationals in the playoffs if we even make it. Make a trade with the Angels. We can help each other. They need to rebuild their farm system. We need Anderson, Rengifo, and Pillar. Do what it takes. Get off of your tail now Mo and get it done.

Look who is on dal and need to go

We need one more proving ace

Make an offer that the Angels can’t refuse for Mike Trout; trade Goldy for a solid starting pitcher 🍸and install Burly at first base.

They need another shut down arm for the back end of the bullpen to give Helseley some help.

There isn’t a spot for Lowe to play though. Especially when Edman and noot are healthy. I feel like we’d need a right handed hitting outfielder for it to make sense

At the very least, a RH bench bat (esp. against lefties) would seem advisable….Noot will make a difference for the top of the order (OBP), but relying on Edman & Walker is a mistake….& we should be past the point of thinking Goldy & Nado will rebound significantly - minor rebounds are the best we can expect from them ( an OPS over 700).

Pallante with that new runner in on the righties hopefully will help. He does have a good arm very durable. Why did the announcers say the the mistake by Bendan Donovan almost cost them the game?? That run means nothing.. you still have to get a hit lol. Can't wait for Noot with good plate disciplin and power. This offence can be better. Way to go Chase!👏 thanks JD ..Pallante for the 5th we need to see more.. Libby had a good start...still need a ace. 1 or a 2

Pitching is always and will always be a concern , the Cards are one starter going down away from scrambling to keep the rotation in order ,cant count on Devil Magic all the time, if there's a starter they can get get him.Go get Max ,the Rangers are 8 games under 500 and hes going to be available and what better place to have him go than home sweet home. Make it happen Mo

I love both Arenado and Goldy, they're two players that I always hoped the Cardinals would target, and I loved it when they landed them. Right now, given they're both looking at back to back slump years, I feel like the right move is definitely to at least trade Goldy -- there is probably going to be a contending team that is confident they can help him fix their swing and give up a decent prospect in return. We have Burleson ready to slot in to 1B. And honestly, if the right offer is there for Arenado... It just feels awful saying we should consider letting two such greats go, but it really does feel like the better move right now. We need to move past this era where none of our young players are growing because most of them can't get consistent playing time (or position), and if the vets aren't getting the job done, then why keep letting them be blockers. If it was a 1 year slump, that would be one thing -- but let's be real here, the slump really goes back to the last 8 weeks of 2022. It felt like as soon as the machine hit #700, the team lost all of its steam. No one was hitting the last month and a half and Waino's 2023 woes were on display for all of August 2022.

Let me remind you GRAY IS NOT AN ACE! Ace do not have two bad starts in row giving up 5 runs in a row. Any trades for pitching should focus on getting an ACE for the playoffs. Get MAX or bust. MAX could force his way to St. Louis. Then I would move Walker and someone else and get TROUT with half his salary paid by the Angles. THAT IS GOING FOR IT>

Trevor Bauer

I've said before, Herrera would be an excellent guy to work with defensively to give Goldy some days off at 1B. Ivan was providing decent offense, and is now probably #3 at the catcher position. He would be a much better backup at 1B than Baker, who is very weak defensively.

If you're there, you must be somebody. Maybe not great but you take what you get. You have bats you need throwers.

We have inconsistency in the starting pitching staff built on short-term contracts, so I don't think Pallante has changed that condition, at least not yet. The Cardinals have overcome some of the inconsistency to this point of the season, but I really think the best thing to do by the trade deadline is bulk up on relief pitching. (and I'm not talking "rentals" heading to free agency, we need consistency in the bullpen, too) Address the starting pitching again during the off-season. .... and .... Gallegos is too far gone to be effective for the Cardinals ANYWHERE.

Check the National league stats. We are striking out ALOT. Many of our offensive woes could be helped by just putting the ball in play! Batting coach?

Go Cards!

Even mentioning trading for another player batting sub 250 for us honestly is crazy. How low has this franchise gone? We might as, well try Baker and bring up Walker before then. I can't believe as bad as our bars here been nether one of those have been brought up yet? Were not going anywhere winning all these 1 run games.. Look at our run differential it's crazy we're even above 500 🤷

Hey JD; PITCHING PITCHING PITCHING!! So your proposal makes some sense. Efflin is intriguing. I’m fine offering up Carlson, but Crawford could be helping Winn with his game more than we see or hear. That’s valuable and if true we see the evidence. As we all know….It all depends on what the Rays would want as well.

Pallante is a monster as well as JD 👍

Goldie and Arenado are not struggling that bad. Nolan is hitting .260 which is middle of the road for the MLB. Goldie had a horrible start but is hitting around .260 for last 6 weeks as well. They both have 33/34 RBIs on a weak offensive team. Let them both figure themselves out.

We aren't in first place yet and we need offensive production. If Edman and Not come back that's exactly what we need. If Mo trades those 2 away we will barely make the wildcard spot if not just give it away... Pages and Herrera could be moved. We don't need 3 catchers.

More starting pitching is always needed.

What about Nolan Gorman? It’s obvious he can’t hit and strikes out nearly 50% of the time.

First, i am not drinking the Pallante kool-aid yet. Next Gray is a low 1 or high 2 so we need another top tier starter or we will get bounced quickly in the post season. We also need a bat. The DH used by Marmol is often not great. The other day, Crawford was our DH. WTF!!!

If we trade for a starting pitcher who do you sit. I think 1 or 2 big right hand bat's would be better. Nootbaar comes back and goes to right field or left with Donovan plays infield Burleson goes to dh when Wilson catches siana avg 224 Carlson avg 210 Edman avg 248 none of them jump out for center

I agree taht we need to take our time bringing Ivan Herrera back. There may not be a spot for him.

Listen how can anyone dump one of the best relievers in the game . We have had him for his whole career because he gets hurt yes he hurt his back . Well just why you want to stay with nootbar he’s been hurt his whole time he’s been in the big leagues

Ok ok I have been in or around baseball for over sixty years . I have never seen this bull with starting pitchers . I have seen who cares about pitch count but now the cardinals pull there starters after 80 pitches at times not very often ninty ninty five pitches. And you all worried about relievers working to hard . Come on let’s stop babying starting pitchers. My goodness we havnt have a starter complete a game . Come on

i want max sherzer it makes to much sense to not bring him in it would sell a lot of tickets.

I'm going to play teh devil's advocate. DO ou think a contract et extension would help teh batting averages and statss of GOldy and Arenado? It['s been known to happen.

No you always wanna be expected for the worst don't say Pallante is enough because he could hit the dropoff ans decline big time. I would add some good pitchers maybe 1 or 2 aces that will take some pressure off of him.

Edman and Burly are the best outfielders you can have.

Wow Chase Davis needs to progress more quickly playing A ball and you have guys on this roster who have been here for 3 years and have done nothing. I see now that some players are rushed to improve to the Cardinal standard while others are handled like babies.

Yandy Diaz is the Rays piece I’d rather go after. RH. High OBP.

Andre pallante in common sense will not match up with the Phillies dodgers brewers braves all there #2 ace pitcher's lol he's done OK but he's not wat were missing to seriously compete n playoffs and we should trade nootbar or edman we don't need both were loaded with outfielders trade jorden walker too an get something good for him if we still can we need a #2 starter a better hitting center fielder and a high leverage reliever if we get them we'll b n good shape then go cards!!

Noot and Tommy can be the bats we r looking for. Pitching pitching and more pitching. It would also help if Paul and Nolan A would hit better.

This team needs pop stop talking bout starting pitching and bullpen help. We need offensive help idk why everyone wants to make it seem like nootbar and edman are going to come back and the offense is going to be great lol we need big bat. It’s just the cardinals aren’t going to do that

JD, we still need good pitching coaches and good hitting coaches. We obviously don't have coaches that can develop hitters and pitchers. We need them desperately. Unless Arenado is injured and they're not telling us, a good hitting coach could help him figure it out and totally turn it around. Same for Goldy!! Is Skip Schumacher waiting in the wings JD? I certainly hope so. That might be another topic for your next program or the one after that.

Agreed JD. Bullpen help is key. Also a starter would be nice. Once you get into playoffs if cards are able to make it. All you need are 3 horses for starters and a great bullpen.
