The St. Louis Cardinals' most detested rival just added another knot to Cardinals fans' stomachs. On the evening of Jan. 10, the Chicago Cubs signed third baseman Alex Bregman to a five-year, $175 million deal. Bregman, who will be 32 at the beginning of the 2026 season, was an All-Star in his lone season with the Boston Red Sox, hitting .273 with an .821 OPS. At first glance, the Cubs' latest move might sink Cardinals fans deeper into the troughs of despair, but there is reason for Cardinals fans to celebrate this move when seeking long-term failure for their bitter foes.
