In the offseason before the 2019 season, the St. Louis Cardinals made the biggest trade they have made arguably this decade by sending Carson Kelly, Luke Weaver, and Andy Young in exchange for their star first baseman Paul Goldschmidt.
The Cardinals hadn’t made a big trade in a while and it was a good sign for what was to come before the 2019 season that saw the team make it all the way to the NLCS. As we all know, the team still has plenty of flaws and there is work to be done.
