This game is, of course, a makeup game for the May 3 washout that is the 4th game of a series that the Cards were leading 2-1. We had just been shut down by Shairon Martis the day before. Balester's a righty who we've never faced before and, after being ripped by the disastros 3 times, we need a good game before moving on to Philly.

Genius is seldom appreciated in its own time.
Albert Pujols does not have "down" years. He has "~6 WAR" years.
He drives in 4

Wallace/Holliday
If the cards are really swapping Brett Wallace, doesn’t it suggest that they are very serious about keeping Pujols? It seemed to me like Wallace would be his natural replacement in a couple of years after we could not afford to keep El Hombre.
But Holliday isn't that good anymore
He’s good but not great like he used to be

but in holliday’s defense the evidence that he won’t hit outside of coors (and his OPS+ is still 120) is a half-season in Oakland, where bats go to die.
If Wallace was called up yesterday
he wouldn’t still be a prospect.
Would you be opposed to the deal then?
by Hardcore Legend on Jul 23, 2009 7:13 PM EDT up reply actions
good observation.
he won’t be called up yesterday.
it’s questionable to be willing to trade someone based upon where they are in the organization, in my opinion.

holliday twide the player dye was and rasmus better prospect than wallace. I saw him play in college and he could barly play 1st base much less 3rd. i’m not denying that he rakes the ball but his defense is pretty shaky

Heyman also reports that the Cardinals might want the A’s to pay a portion of the $1.8MM bonus Wallace received after the 2008 draft.

Building a team from within is a great strategy. But when you are in a position to make a run and can improve your chances with a trade you do it.
Trust that you have other players right behind those prospect to take their place.
show me these "sure things" of which you speak.
the truth can't hurt you, it's just like the dark/ it scares you witless, but in time you see things clear and stark -- macmanus
exactly
there are none if we were trading like 3 top prospects but holliday for one prospect. ill admit a good one is worth it to me if managment thinks we have a chance of resigning
well, then all you really said was wallace is a good player.
the truth can't hurt you, it's just like the dark/ it scares you witless, but in time you see things clear and stark -- macmanus
he was drafted 13 months ago. go back and check the
2008 draft and find out how many are in the majors. find out how many are even in AAA. very, very few prospects rise so quickly and don’t have substantial success – like All-Star type success – in the majors.
the truth can't hurt you, it's just like the dark/ it scares you witless, but in time you see things clear and stark -- macmanus
that is like saying Wallace is good but he's no unicorn.
sure things do not exist in baseball or life.
frightening thought
but may not be far off the mark
i suspect mo may be playing As vs. jays
personally, i’d be more likely to give wallace for halladay than holliday
also, nfw on dunn!!
"No matter where you go, there you are" Buckeroo Bonzai Across the 8th Dimension
the only reason they are trading him is because they believe he can't play 3rd or LF
which is kind of smart if you calm down & think about it. by trading him now when he has probably his most value, they can get the most in return.
FOR RENT
never say never
when talking about someone who can actually HIT

i agree, but the Cards FO obviously does not
so i’d rather they get the most value for him instead of wasting his bat in the minors

No thanks, I don’t feel like letting ownership sign the deed for Busch Stadium over to him.

They never sign extensions, and the very few times it’s happens, it’s happened because the player went over Boras’s head to resign.

again, i agree
holliday for walrus is a bad move, especially considering how much Billy wants him. i’m just saying they should get the best deal they can since they don’t think he can play a defensive position.

if they truly got a good deal it isn't a bad idea to move Wallace
I think that was half the idea in drafting him, I also agree that Holliday is not the droid I’m looking for.

Calm down guys
Mo is not a complete moron. He is actually a pretty good GM. Trading Holliday for Wallace is so completely and obviously retarded that there is no way it will happen.
(Dear God I hope I’m right.)
Gregatron is not responsible for any of the crap he just wrote.
Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.
I'm the guy that does his job, you must be the other guy.
And to retort,
I think Wallace can be crafted into a decent 3B, maybe not this year of course, but I only do that deal if we ship Ankiel out as well, and lock up Holliday.
But none of this is certain…
I'm the guy that does his job, you must be the other guy.

That makes zero sense.....
Our pitching has been fine, and while we don’t have any aces ready in the minors, we have several guys that could fill in the 3-5 spots.
What we have struggled with is hitting. And we don’t have any stud hitters coming up, other than Wallace. So if you move Wallace, at this point, you better get a bat back.
