Could a top talent from outside the organization transform the infield’s outlook for 2027? JD Hafron and Thomas Gauvain break down the history of Cardinals standouts at third base—from Scott Rolen to Nolan Arenado—while evaluating free agent options and potential trades that could shake up the lineup.
Key discussion points include the team’s underwhelming third base production, internal prospects versus high-upside external targets like Lewis, and intriguing alternatives such as JP Crawford and Eugenio Suárez.
The episode also spotlights the future of Ivan Herrera, possible contract extensions for Jordan Walker and Alec Burleson, and the franchise’s financial flexibility for a playoff push. With playoff teams like the Brewers, Guardians and Rays finding success through smart spending, can the Cardinals’ next moves take them back to postseason glory?
