Overall, it appears the Cardinals will be getting a good, late-innings arm with closing experience, something that we have come to realize is important to Cardinal Manger Mike Matheny. While the move is not the incredible, free-agent splash some might have hoped the team would make, it is still exciting to see the Cardinals involved in the international player market and add some always needed depth to the bullpen.
