FWIW - Joe Sheehan thinks Holliday means a difference of fewer than 2 wins for the Cards down the stretch.

If Sheehan believes that this is not significant, he is probably not in full apprciation of what apx 2 wins means in two months in the NL Central, especially when the two wins is coming at a cost of a two-tool player and two (barely) warm bodies.

Exactly ... 2 wins in 2 months? Huge.

Agreed. I'll also mention the wild card race for good measure.
