That Renfroe HR must have really pissed them off.

Since it isn’t my money I would be fine with a Goldy and Contreras for a minimal return.

Cardinals don’t want to blow it up, I’m pretty sure they’re only gonna trade expiring players

Given Ward's injury last night & the fact that he's being squeezed off of the Cardinals roster...I think Dylan Carlson would be a quality, low-cost gamble.

Yea, I have heard that, but if they aren’t sold on Contreras, they would move him.

Contreras is possible (though I think even he’s unlikely), but there’s no chance they trade Goldschmidt

I think the only way they get someone to take that contract is to attach some actual value to it.

Most big names gone before Tuesday.

I wonder with teams like Dodgers, Rays and others needing starters if halos would trade Tyler Anderson?

According to MLB.com, Texas moved their #11 and #14 prospects (and John King) for Montgomery and Stratton...and they are a Top 10 farm according to most resources. 

The Quero and Bush price for Giolito and Lopez is looking like a really good deal based off cost of other trades.

I agree only difference Texas in much better playoff position. Now Angels only 5 out in West.

Who would have predicted at the beginning of the season that the Mets, Cardinals and White Sox would all be having fire sales at the trade deadline. Especially the Cardinals and the White Sox since they both play in horrible divisions. I guess that manager that manager that led the Cardinals to that amazing comeback last season, but still got fired, was doing a good job after all.

Strange, since they are just 4.5 out of 3rd WC spot and 7-3 in past 10 games

Dude, Dipoto. 

He'll trade half his roster if they're in 1st if he feels like it.

Maaaaybe he learned his lesson a couple years back when he traded Graveman in the middle of the pennant race and it pissed off the clubhouse, but I doubt it. A seller's market with rentals and surplus pitching? Behind all the teams in the WC and the West? He's going to be way too tempted to make some deals.
