St. Louis Cardinals risk missing a golden trade opportunity as the reliever market surges—will holding JoJo Romero shake up their season plans? JD Hafron breaks down the frenzy for bullpen arms across Major League Baseball, examining key moves by rivals and questioning whether the Cardinals should still move their top lefty or double down for playoff depth.
Other hot topics include Dustin May’s finalized contract, Rainiel Rodriguez’s emergence as the farm system’s rising star, and the shifting trade landscape for Nolan Arenado amid Alex Bregman rumors. With insights on free-agent bullpen targets, what lefty arms make sense for the Cardinals, and debates over adding Nick Castellanos for right-handed power, this episode tackles every angle of St. Louis’s evolving roster strategy. Can the Cardinals outmaneuver National League foes and make the decisive trades to stay competitive?
