Holliday to the Cards

The cards just acquired Holliday for three guys I've never heard of. This can't be good for the Cubs this season.

Brett Wallace is really good. He was the Cards 1st round pick last year, Peterson was their 2nd round pick.

Matt Holliday isn't really a good hitter. But this probably puts the Cardinals over the top.

Brett Wallace is a really, really good hitter. He's like a younger Jake Fox with the same problem; no real position. The A's will probably DH him.

The Cardinals already had a good offense. Damn.

Ankiel with a couple hits tonight, if he can get going that lineup will be even more stacked.
