STILL A CARDINAL

[CardsofSTL]

The Radio guys here in Az are not to crazy about the Noot deal. Except for his name - they love that. Think they paid a heavy price for Noot.

Noot is awesome and helps carry Arenado's bags.

Just 18 years old; it will be a bit before we know what we have there.

Come on Yankees , somebody said you needed a catcher. We could drop off Pages while we are there.

That's a nice return for Noot, not sure who the PTBNL will be, but the two named are both nice.

Eagen is a fastball pitcher with nice vertical break (like most new Cardinals pitchers). Doesn't throw enough strikes and his underlying data was just ok, but I think he's a starter in a year.

Sandro Santana is another arrow-up guy.

Of the thousand pitches Santana fired last year, only 15 were changeups — so few that I didn’t catch any in my several looks at him in 2025. I omitted the pitch in my report on him last December, as I assumed he’d either mothballed it or would soon. Looks like we’ll need to update that report, too. Santana didn’t just throw a few cambios, but he also missed a couple bats with them. He has a low slot and generates the kind of fade and tumble that that release tends to produce, with good arm speed to boot. I don’t know what my best accomplishment was this winter, but I’m sure it pales in comparison to finding an above-average changeup.

The rest of Santana’s game looked sharp, as well. In two innings, he didn’t allow a baserunner and struck out two. He touched 96 mph, and his slider was again above average, long with good spin, and lefties looked very uncomfortable against it, flinching or waving weakly at it several times.

We all like his name too. And this deal. Way to go Chaim.

I liked Noot. I will actually miss his bus.
