The St. Louis Cardinals are in a bind as July ends, with just 8 wins and 12 losses pushing them toward another trade deadline sell-off. Pitcher JoJo Romero, a potential trade target, is sidelined after appendicitis surgery and won’t return until at least 15 days from now—drastically reducing his trade window and value. With little time to showcase him, the Cardinals may end up keeping him, forcing them to pivot toward other assets like closer Riley OBrien, who offers more immediate return. This injury could reshape their deadline strategy, pushing them to trade more valuable players sooner.
