So Dex is again testing FA.  Cards rumored to be in the mix.  Anywhere but there?
Those Cardinals aren't red, they're yellow.  Like the Spanish!

He was a three-squares client in 2015, BTW. And it was Jabberwocky.

Sex Fowler deserves to get paid. If the Cardinals do, I'd be fine with it. He already got his Cubs ring, and there's no Cardinals season that could possibly match that.

I wouldn't, like, call him a Trader if he signed with them, but I'd still prefer he sign with literally anyone else.
I will vow, for the sake of peace, not to complain about David Ross between now and his first start next year- 10/26/2015

How about he signs with the Cardinals who overpay for him and he's the only player on St. Louis worth a damn this season. So as the Cardinals head to a 90-loss season (and while Heyward rediscovers the joy of hitting), Fowler is dealt to an American League team who makes the Cardinals take on much of Fowler's salary and sends them some highly rated prospects that fizzle out. The Cubs draft some stud with the draft pick, Fowler finishes out his career somewhere else, and St. Louis enters a 25-year funk of teams that do not contend.

And the Cards cough up a draft pick to the Cubs.
