Let’s play a game. I have run out of things to write so I am forced to play a game. The game is to imagine a future St. Louis Cardinals roster. Just to try to guess who, if any, players still remain on the team on this faraway date. It can’t be too far in the future or it’s just pointless but it can’t be next year or it’s too easy. There’s a sweet spot where you can picture the roster, but you’re probably going to be wrong.
And in order to find that sweet spot, I went backwards in time.
