Subtle Market Shifts

Posted on December 22, 2008 at 8:51 AM
Filed Under: St. Louis Cardinals
Another weekend with no Cardinal news.  While not unexpected, it doesn't mean we have to like it.

The only thing that could have relevance to St. Louis's plans would be the news that the Angels have withdrawn their bid for Mark Teixeira.  Presumably, that would leave them more money to fill their other needs, one of which is in the closer position.  It's widely thought that Brian Fuentes is just waiting on the Angels to give him a yea or nay and now they'd be more likely to give him positive affirmation (as well as go the three years).

If that's the case, it's possible the Cardinals turn to a starter and let the bullpen work itself out.  With Ben Sheets still not getting a lot of interest, it would seem logical to turn to him, but that doesn't mean it'll happen.

I'd guess the teams are really starting to shut down for the holidays and odds are, I will as well.  The Cardinal Nation Ticker is up running today, so head over there if you want to talk Cardinals.  If I'm not back tomorrow, have a wonderful Christmas everyone!
