A player will have a positive 'What the hell?' season.

Another player or two will have seasons that will be 'What the hell?' in a bad way.

Tyler O'Neill will pull muscles but put up numbers. He plays 130 games tops.

Flaherty will be nails. Wainwright might pitch well enough to consider playing next year.

Matz will pitch a full season with the help of some duct tape, baling wire, and super glue.

I asked ChatGPT-4 to generate a crown of sonnets about the Cardinals winning the Central Division, pennant, and World Series.

It could only generate a few quatrains, so I don't know what this bodes exactly for the season:
I would be happy to generate a crown of sonnets about the 2023 St. Louis Cardinals winning the Central Division, National League pennant, and World Series. Please keep in mind that this is a fictional scenario, and I am generating this content purely for creative purposes.

The season started with hopes high and bright,
The Cardinals set out to reclaim their throne,
The Central Division was theirs to ignite,
Aiming for the pennant and World Series alone.

The Cardinals roared out of the gate,
Their bats were hot, their defense tight,
Their starting pitchers all first rate,
The rivals quaked at their daunting might.

Game after game they battled and won,
The Central Division was theirs to take,
Their confidence and unity second to none,
The playoffs next, the team did not flake.

In the National League, they faced tough foes,
But the Cardinals rose to the challenge,
Their grit and talent on full display, they chose
To fight hard and win, and not just to manage.

The World Series was the ultimate test,
But the Cardinals remained resolute and strong,
They played with heart and gave their best,
And with each victory, they proved their mettle long.

The championship trophy finally came in sight,
The Cardinals knew this was their moment to shine,
They rallied together with all their might,
And triumphed in the end, the victory divine.

The city of St. Louis erupted with joy,
The fans cheered and celebrated in the streets,
The Cardinals were the new champions, no ploy,
Their triumphant victory forever sweet.

The 2023 St. Louis Cardinals, a team to remember,
They fought hard and never lost sight of their goal,
Their dedication and passion a burning ember,
Their place in baseball history now whole.

Nootbaar's Noot Bars will finally go into mass production

This shouldn't count. This happens every year. Not bold enough.

4. Waino ends the season in the bullpen
5. Genesis Cabrera becomes our most reliable bullpen arm
6. Walker will start hot, cool down, and gets sent back down to the minors and then get called back up after an injury and stay for good
