re: Trade Posts

Those will probably start to come in a week or so as the trade market becomes clearer. There were a few last year under the “Raiding the Farm” tag but we know that everyone loves trade talk so there will certainly be more of them.

I’d like to something on other teams’ players who may be available for trade, as much as that can be determined. Alot of us say, “(gasp) I got it, trade for a middle infield prospect!!!”, but I, at least, have no idea who’s actually out there in other systems that we could go after. Or maybe just a general overview of one team’s system every week or two.

I just want to know what type of stuff Richard Castillo has. He pitched great in High-A, and had a great debut in Low-A. But, I think it’s very important to find out what type of stuff he has. I do know he throws a curveball, but that’s about all that I know.

I’d like to see an updated top 20-25 prospect list each week. or top 10-15 if that’s easier.

Another idea would be to keep people updated on the Cardinals top 6 draft picks or so of 2008 each week.

I vote for bringing back the Rasmus watch, I think it’s safe now

I would love to see a look at how our prospects stats have translated from Memphis to STL. Just to give an idea how to compare the numbers from players in AAA vs players currently in STL.

For example, Would Barden or Hoff translate to hit better than Izz or AK ?

Some great ideas here…particularly the ones about comparing our prospects to top players in other systems.

I would also love to see some interviews with some of the minor league hitting/pitching coaches to find out what they’re working on with some of the prospects and how these players are adjusting/refining their game.

I love the ideas of updating on current status of draftees, both in regards to signing as well as how they’re doing (maybe the top 15 or 20 signees) once they’re in the system.

I love this site. I check in at least twice daily. Keep up the great work!

Not sure where else to put this, but it is being reported that Mulder was scratched from his start tonight. Guess that adds for more fun this weekend…

Two things I would like are some info on our latin efforts (players, coaches, ballpark, anything). Maybe an interview with one of the latin guys that have recently been called up to the states. It would also be great to have a post describing the different levels of the minors. I have no idea what determines where these guys are put in the minors.
