Here's St. Louis stats & financials. Yes, I deliberately overpaid Urban (Legend) Henry to sign here, I'd been watching him for a decade and wanted to take over a team years ago to sign him. I steered the trade from the Yankees to Texas I thought he could take the Yanks to a title but they didn't, so he went to Texas (with Mark Wleh) he led the Rangers to a title and now they're mostly trash too. When I saw he was going to be a free agent, I wanted the best storyline place for him to go.
He's what made me finally take over a team in this dynasty, so there was never going to be another place for him to go. It was amazing restraint that I just overpaid for him rather than just intervene and put him on my roster.
Van Doren, Willingham and Amobi were all signed to their deals before I got here. I almost traded Van Doren last off-season, but I held on and his value is even more now so he's for sure going out the door. Willingham was a former ace who has seen better days, he's far too expensive as a bullpen guy, I kept him for a year though as a spare part in case injuries arose or for the post-season, he was useful but not $15.8m useful with a player option. Amobi is very young, I think the Cardinals locked him down early to ensure he could be a cornerstone of their rebuild, but I think it was a massive overpay for a kid that hadn't proven anything yet.
Moving them would recapture part of nearly $50m in payroll that I could deploy elsewhere, the 3 of them are about a combined 5 WAR, I feel like I can find that on the open market for that price. I haven't decided whether they'll be prospect dumps -- we're 22nd in the organization ranks -- or whether I'll try to find someone who can fill in gaps to help out.
Van Doren is the prize of the 3, he could command a very nice prospect haul if that's what I wanna do.
Anyway, here's the details on the Cardinals:
