This has almost become a tired game of guesswork. Playing GM can be fun but oftentimes these articles can be dismissed with a simple “oh the St. Louis Cardinals wouldn’t do that.” However, I do believe that in the instance that one of these many hypothetical trades and or signings do happen, I feel like having the prior knowledge about why a deal could be good or bad is important.
If anything else, it’s fun to dream. That is why Joc Pederson would be a good fit for the Cardinals’ outfield.
It’s been well documented that the Cardinals want to give the young kids a chance to play and prove their worth and everything, but it’s impossible that Mo has ruled out all possibilities of trade to improve the outfield.
