It's a sad day for Cardinal Nation. Taguchi was fun to have on the team. Not only was his name a hoot, but he is by all appearances a really nice guy, a great teammate, and personally I'll always be grateful to him for going yard against Billy Wagner in Game One of the 2006 NLCS.
Best of luck to you, So, and may you always stay safe from those mo-skee-toes.
Still, it makes perfect sense to let him go. We've got younger, cheaper guys to fill his role, and who knows, we could get a guy in the major-league draft who ends up helping us.
It's probably a good sign that our new front office is willing to make this decision. Gives me slightly more confidence that better days are ahead...at least after we reach the Great Salary Dump that is coming a year from now.
