bb asked:
Lets say the Cardinals want to move O’Neill, or Hudson. Would they try to do it before the tender deadline in mid November? Or tender a contract and maybe be looking at arbitration, and then hope to work a trade afterwords?
I don’t know, but my guess is it doesn’t matter in the context of money. Because of the long history of arbitration salaries, everyone already knows about what the two will make in 2024.
However in terms of roster reconfiguration, perhaps the Cardinals would like to get clarity as soon as possible.
