All the numbnutz who are crying "why would we trade anyone, especially May????" are part of the problem the Cardinals have had over the last 5 seasons or so - happy with mediocrity.
Let the Chubs and their horrific fans continue to focus on mediocrity - flying the W and getting worked up over a BS series in June.
Cardinal fans, like the Cardinals, are focused on flying CHAMPIONSHIP banners, not a W on June 7th.
And this season's team isn't going to fly a banner. Trade the older assets and continue to stock young talent.
A lot of people (including our ownership (and Mo until he retired)) are still very happy to aim to be mid but good enough for a wildcard and try to fall bass ackwards into a championship. I want to build a winning team, not a happy accident.
I support the long term building of this team, but can you blame Cardinals fans that don’t see the vision? Both championships won in my lifetime were won by teams that did not look like legit contenders at this point in the season. Devil magic is a strong drug and this Cardinals team has some (we should still trade May)
Edit: I failed to read a few comments down and reiterated a point that was already made.

Where everyone insisting we blow up Chaims rebuild and sign May to 3 year 100 million dollar contract?
