Cardinals stand pat at trade deadline...
Not much action in the trade department for any MLB team this season as the deadline came and went without any trades. The Cardinals GM MizzouRah said he didn't even seek a trade even though reports had them looking at the Pirates young 26 year old LHP Jeff Locke.
"We lead the league in hitting and tied with the Phillies for ERA, we are happy where we stand for the 2014 season", said MizzouRah.
The Cardinals finished in 5th place last season and have made a dramatic turnaround this season, already winning 7 more games than last year with 50 games still remaining.
"It's going to be a dogfight the rest of the way with the Reds", said MizzouRah.
The Cardinals have been without RHP Adam Wainwright for a month and have stayed close to the Reds. Adam is due to come back in about a week and should help in the quest for a division title.
