To all Cardinals fans: Who do you want the Redbirds to pursue in the free agent market?

Question

Now try and pick their needs and not wants.

Answer 1

As much as I hate to admit it but a 3rd baseman may be what they need.With Rolen fighting the injuries the last couple of years,it may be time to replace him.And a Pitcher is always on my wish list.

Answer 2

I think DeWitt is tying Mozliaks hands - that's why Jocketty left cause De Witt is a dimwit. But, nevertheless, I'd like to see the Cardinals resign Eckstein and maybe pick up a third baseman - Rolen is always injured and he is having that little tiff with LaRussa (they aren't on speaking terms).

They might need to consider a short term OF, too. They didn't resign Taguchi, Edmonds can't play from a rocking chair, Encarnacion will never play baseball again. So you've got Stone Hands Duncan and Ankiel. Ankiel is great, but he can't play the outfield by himself. Rasmus is still a year away.

Answer 3

A Rod. Period.

Pitching, everyone says, is where its at. But bring the big guy in and couple him with Pujols, even for two years, and the pitchers will fall out of the framework.

But after A-Rod, pitching. Any pitching. Colon, to start. Next, Rogers, despite his age . . . And why not give Glavine a last year in Cardinal red?

Answer 4

A good physician, a center fielder under the age of thirty, a 3rd baseman, and lots of pitching. Preferably free agents that will show up for the season.

Answer 5

The usual - pitching, outfielders and someone to backup Pujols and Molina that won't complain every 5 minutes.

Answer 6

It all starts with pitching and they need to look at all available options.

Answer 7

i think the rally monkey from anaheim is available....isn't he a free agent?

Answer 8

i think the best they could do is try to get carlos silva
