Two more nondrafted free agents that the Cards signed are pitcher Bryan Pope from California Baptist and 3rd baseman Noah Mendlinger from the Georgia College Bobcats.
Brian, Don’t know if you noticed on last nights Memphis game that Coulter came in as a pinch hitter. The roster matrix shows him as 60dayIL which usually indicates he’s had surgery and would miss most or all of the season. If he is back that would be 32 on the active roster
1982 Will: Edmonds said something about a Little League pitcher being on suicide watch after being removed from a game. He later apologized for his remarks.
I had the same 26 man roster prediction after Bader and Kim went down, My predicted 5 man taxi squad to start the season is Heineman, Moroff, Szczur, Roel Rameriez & Domingo Robles.
I would spend Wong’s $12 million declined option by offering Yadi a ridiculous one year contract at $7 million and Wainwright a not so ridiculous $5 million contract. No incentives based on number of games played. Tell Yadi he will be catching only 100 games and Kninzer the remaining. Have a Yadi/Waino appreciation day the last home series of the year, thank them and wish them both best wishes on their retirements.
