This is the point of spring training where I get to start every sentence with "I know it's Spring Training but...."

Erick Fedde dropped to 0-2 this spring after allowing six runs and three homers in four innings Tuesday against the Marlins.
Griffin Conine’s two-run homer was a wind-aided routine fly, but Fedde gave up a couple of more legit shots to Nick Fortes and Otto Lopez. In all, he allowed nine balls in play in excess of 100 mph against a lineup that shouldn’t be producing that much hard contact. He also failed to strike out a batter. One spring training game means nothing in the grand scheme of things, but those skeptical of Fedde entering the month have been given no reason to change their minds.

good thing we didn't trade him

mark your calendars for stl to do nothing, regardless of standing

Major League Baseball has set the trade deadline for Thursday, July 31 at 6:00 PM.
The trade deadline has traditionally been on July 31, but was moved to July 30 last year after being on August 1 back in 2023. The move to Thursday makes a ton of sense since it’s usually lightest schedule of games during a typical week.

Remember when players got better with the Cardinals instead of worse? Mozeliak’s imprint is the destruction of the organization’s coaching and managing.

Tommy Edman crushed a two-run homer and collected three RBI on Tuesday, leading the Dodgers to a blowout win over the Guardians in Cactus League action.
Edman drew the start at second base in this one and took Guardians prospect Doug Nikhazy deep in the opening frame for his third round-tripper of the season. The versatile 29-year-old also drew a bases-loaded walk later in the frame. Adding second-base eligibility would help boost Edman’s fantasy appeal since it’s one of the more shallow position groups. He’s a borderline top-200 pick in most fantasy drafts this spring.
