It's getting harder and harder to believe that. Otherwise, even tanking teams would be in on Harper and Machado.
I'm curious why the Cardinals gave Andrew Miller $25M if they don't care about winning games.
Just a gift, because they like the guy?
You mean less guaranteed money than they gave Brett Cecil? And had a writer proclaim they were tired of being cheap? As the team has spent less on payroll to this point than they have last year?
It's not a complicated question.
Why did the Cardinals give Andrew Miller $25M if they don't care about winning?

Pardon the paraphrasing, and I've said this before, but all this talk about owners are cheap and analytics are bunk and/or a conspiracy is Cards Talk with better grammar. We've come full circle.
