The Cardinals' Offseason: Retool, Rebuild, or Just Plain Weird?
The Cardinals' offseason has been strangely quiet, especially considering the front office's initial pronouncements of payroll cuts and youth movements. While some unforeseen circumstances like no-trade clauses have thrown a wrench in their plans, their overall inactivity raises some serious questions. Is this a calculated retooling, a stealth rebuild, or are they simply stuck in a state of paralysis?
The inability to move big contracts like Arenado's is understandable, but the lack of any other moves is perplexing. Holding onto impending free agents like Fedde and Helsley seems counterintuitive to their stated goals. Are they hoping for a surprise breakout from their young players, or are they simply misreading the market?
What's your take on the Cardinals' strategy? Are they playing the long game, or just delaying the inevitable? Let's hear your bold predictions for the rest of their offseason and what it means for their chances in 2025. Are they contenders, pretenders, or something in between?
