The Cardinals made their move on Sunday, adding Zach Duke and sending Charlie Tilson to the White Sox.
Among other things, I discussed:
- Zack Duke for Charlie Tilson
- Price for relievers
- Looking at other deadline deals compared to the Cardinals
- A brief dog cameo
- I like Carlos Beltran, even if the doesn’t make sense on this team.
- Tilson’s future
- Duke’s contract
- Duke’s position in the bullpen and how it relates to the rest of the team
- Using Bowman over Oh and playing for extra innings
- Starting Jaime Garcia, "second-guessing", and the other options the Cardinals had
- Trade deadline deals the Cardinals could have made
- Diaz’s injury and its effect on the team
- The Cardinals depth
- Mike Matheny gets me upset
- The Cardinals position relative to the Mets, Marlins, and other NL teams and the moves they made.
- Alex Reyes and his struggles in the minors.
- The role for Luke Weaver
- The role for Lance Lynn
- The state of the Cardinals system and their top prospects.
Thanks for all the great questions.
