Show Notes

Obviously the St. Louis Cardinals were never going to be a factor in the bid for free-agent right fielder Juan Soto, who on Sunday agreed to terms with the NY Mets on a massive 15-year, $765 million deal that set a MLB record for the largest contract that doesn't contain deferred payments.

But how does the Soto signing -- and the free-agent spending spree we've seen this offseason -- impact the Cardinals franchise? In this video I offer opinions and perspective and explain why chairman Bill DeWitt Jr.'s recruitment of baseball executive Chaim Bloom is more important to the Cardinals' future than we probably realize.
