The Circle of Life



Remember when Jose Hernandez was traded for Mark Bellhorn? We all thought whats the point? Or how about trading for Tony Womack? Again what was the point?

Ahh but now the Cardinals have traded for Tony Womack. Oh the joy to see Womack flail away at the top of the Cardinals order against our pitching staff. He doesnt hit well, he doesnt walk, he swings at every thing, and the one tool (speed) he had to get on base is quickly fading.

I hope the Cardinals enjoy him as much as they enjoyed Jeff Fassero. Maybe if we are really lucky and Womack doesnt work out the Cardinals can swing a deal for Jose Hernandez or even the great Lenny F. Harris.

Personally i would love to see Antonio Alfonseca in Cardinals red so we can get some payback like with Fassero.

I just find it weird that it seemed like for years we picked up the dead scraps of players the Cards didnt want on the market, and now it seems the Cards are picking up the dead scraps of ex-Cubs players. I know Walt Jocketty is a smart man, but if they couldnt cut it as a Cub that should be a MAJOR avoid sign. Dont touch, dont sign, dont trade, dont pass go.
