The free agency frenzy had fizzled slightly over the past week or so. Some trades, both big and minor ones have occurred. The Reds and Dodgers pulled off a block bluster trade that sent Yasiel Puig and Matt Kemp and others to Cincinnati. It shook the baseball world for a moment and abruptly caused me to reflect how competitive the NL Central is going to be. Even with how much they may have improved, the St. Louis Cardinals are going to have a lot of competition in 2019.
Where does this put the Cardinals?
