Cardinals post season press conference announced

[CardsofSTL]

The team will hold their annual end of season press conference Monday September 28 at 3 pm CT.

It is usually streamed on cardinals.com and probably on their youtube page; once there is an official link I will try and get it posted here.

Cool. That will be good background noise for my afternoon nap.

Look forward to hearing about how they can’t spend money until the CBA is resolved. Then I look forward to hearing how the new CBA means they can’t spend money. With some flowery language from Bloom about how they really want to win.

At least they aren't ashamed to have one.

Word is that they’re saving O’Brien to close out the conference

Don't forget a sly reference to players demanding too much money, from a billionaire who pays less tax as a proportion of his earnings than we do.

The only player under contract for next season is Wetherholt. Everyone else is arb or pre-arb or dead money.

A remarkable feat.

and JJ is only making 2.75 next year, as his extension was heavily backloaded.

and the retained money is 9 for arenado and 4 for contreras; so both guys not on the team are making more than the 1 guy who is signed next year.

(after next year/starting 2028, there is no more retained money, so JJ is the only thing on the books for 2028)

You have to refuse to spend for a long time for this to happen. Tip of the cap, I guess.
