***Matt Holliday to Cardinals***

for Brett Wallace, Shane Peterson, Clayton Mortensen & $1.5 Million.....Cards keep making moves, 1st DeRosa now Holliday, could another Halladay be next?

God I hope not.

God I hope not.

Being a Reds fan gets worse every year, last year it was CC to the Brewers, now the Cards making moves.....while the Reds continue to sit around and do nothing. The Central has 4 teams that have a legit chance of making a run, imo the Cards are now the front runner, Houston has made a strong surge now only 1.5 games back, feel a run coming from the Cubs or maybe they should just schedule the Nationals every game, Brewers need help or I could see them continuing to slide and falling out of the race.

[Willie Bee]

Good deal, will be looking for him now to add to an NL-only fantasy team I have.

Pujols finally has someone to hit behind him.

[Richkas]

I love Fred G Sanford period

In 5 yearts time this might just rival the Piersinskyi/Liriano etc deal between San Fran and Minny all those years ago.

SHOCKINGLY overpaid for 2 months of an average hitter away from Coors field.

[Chi_archie]

why wouldn't you want roy halladay on your team?

They don't have enough left to get Halladay.

Easy win for the A's in this deal.

yeah, i think even more brutal than liriano for pierzynski was that the giants threw joe nathan in that trade too. They got rooked if they did either of those guys singularly, but both? Some teams just consistently screw themselves in trades (ie texas rangers... see adam eaton for chris young and adrian gonzalez etc.)

Cards know what they're doing though and I guarantee if holliday plays well, they'll sign him for a pujols buffer. and there's no way in hell Halladay winds up in STL. It's philly or no trade for the doc at this point imho.

[dwaechte]

Beane pulled off a steal here. No way he was going to get a better package than this.

[flyingillini]

I think Holliday is the bat we have been needing!

[head_strong]

I like how they combined our treads Richkas, I've never seen that done before.....although using my title is copyright infringement, I'll be seeing you in court.

[BarkingToad]

This should be the lift to get the Cardinals in the playoffs.

[yisman]

He'll help, but the Cardinals overpaid.

They'll probably lose him to free agency, and the draft picks they'll get won't come anything close to approaching what they gave up.

[flyingillini]

I am a die hard Cardinal fan and I think this is a hell of pick up.. we need a guy like him in the line up
