After acquiring Nolan Arenando and re-signing Adam Wainwright and Yadier Molina, it had been reported the Cardinals were likely done spending. That is probably going to end up being the case. The team feels its needs are met, but one place that could always use more depth is pitching, specifically starting pitching. Knowing all that, it is not surprising the team has been linked to free agent starter Jake Odorizzi.
With most of the focus on free agent Taijuan Walker, Odorizzi might be the type of player that slides under the radar until the end of the offseason.
