position, then what choice do they have? Weaver in my mind has a limited ceiling. He'll never be a one or two. Hudson could be, but pitching is one thing the Cardinals have in surplus. Getting Greinke more than makes up for the loss as well. He may not be as dominant as he was but he knows how to pitch.
Bottomline is they need Goldy's bat. I'll add something else...I don't think either Harper or Machado are worth pursuing vs. their cost and that's assuming they'd be interested in signing in STL to begin with.
This is a year where the Cardinals can't afford to be passive. Make a move early and don't wait for the market to develop.
