Goold: Spring training offers chance to assess the Cardinals' depth of talent and production

Check out the highlights from Derrick Goold’s Cardinals chat with readers. The full transcript of the chat can be found here.

Q: The new schedule doesn't make it any easier for the Cardinals to win the Central League. Will these changes affect the composition of the roster? Will it affect the Trade Market? What do you hear from the inner circle of the Cardinals?

DG: Let me try and tackle each question individually.

1) Will these changes affect the composition of the roster?

Not likely. There's nothing about the new schedule that suggests anything other than taking the best roster for the marathon and maintaining it.
