The left-handed side of the Cardinals bullpen could be approaching disaster. Why not address it by pursuing Brad Hand at the Trade Deadline?
While the the bullpen of the St. Louis Cardinals has generally been an effective tool for manager Mike Shildt thus far this season, the left-handed side is becoming a concern. Tyler Webb is struggling, Andrew Miller has been his usual inconsistent self and is now on the IL, leaving only Genesis Cabrera as Shildt’s only reliable option.
