Pineiro's contract was for $13 mill

The other diary was well over 100 comments.  Cumbersome to scroll thru so I started another diary.  $6.5 mill per year ... not as bad as feared.

... not exactly a starting rotation that makes the opposition wet its shorts.  But we've had worse in STL.

What I just can't figure out is the organizational che the 2008 Cardinals are throwing out there.  A) Are we rebuilding?  B) Are we making a run for it?  C) Or is this a team built to be 500 which qualifies them to be in the hunt in the NL Central but mucked up with vets preventing any real room for growth as a team?

I fear C.  Maybe that is wants DeWitt anyway, a steady competitive team with small peaks and valleys.
