man…Lucas did just about everything he could to not have this happen to him
I think both make it to the bigs again…might not be with us, but they both seem to have good skills that should get them shots in the future!
Here’s to hoping they make it through and back to Memphis!
We drop Lucas and keep Bud Norris? Yeah that makes perfect sense in Mo’s world. I’m not even shocked anymore.
He has to give his 3 million dollar investment at least until Mid June to blow a half dozen appearances. Dewitt’s orders are final!
11 non-roster invitees remained at the end of #stlcards camp. You know Jordan Hicks and Francisco Pena were added to the 40-man and 25-man rosters. If you can't recall all of the other 9, I recap their spring results here. (free) https://t.co/gZr9ZLE7fZ pic.twitter.com/VihDi8zow3

The Cards have 10 days to try to trade Lucas before they have to expose him to waivers. He might bring something of future value.
I was asked about that on Twitter. The specific question was whether they could pull Lucas back from waivers and then try to negotiate a trade. The answer to that is “no”.
Also, on a side point, the DFA period was shortened from 10 to seven days in the new CBA, leaving less time to maneuver.
They would have to try a trade before putting him on waivers, which are irrevocable. Unless a team really wants him, they aren't likely to give much since they know he will soon be on the waiver wire for the taking.
