The St. Louis Cardinals have New Years resolutions that look a whole lot like yours.

The St. Louis Cardinals are not budging from their high asking price in a Brendan Donovan trade according to Jeff Passan, nor should they. The Red Sox, Mariners, and more have no leverage now that Ketel Marte is off the market.

The St. Louis Cardinals want a haul for Brendan Donovan, and with the Arizona Diamondbacks possibly taking Ketel Marte off the market soon, their leverage increases over the Boston Red Sox and Seattle Mariners, who have been interested in both players.

A part of the St. Louis Cardinals that spanned the time from Stan Musial to John Mozeliak, Bing Devine is long overdue for the Cardinals' Hall of Fame

Why this overhaul that the St. Louis Cardinals are going through unlike anything in team history, even the rebuilds in the 1980s and 1990s.

The St. Louis Cardinals have been stuck in a failing cycle of investing in low-ceiling starting pitchers with a ton of money to patchwork their rotation, but Chaim Bloom finally has them ready to let young arms take on the bulk of starts in 2026.

Lucas Giolito's market in free agency has been slow to develop. Chaim Bloom and the St. Louis Cardinals should sign the former Boston Red Sox starter to add stability to the rotation.

The St. Louis Cardinals have three exciting prospects who could make their MLB debut in 2026. JJ Wetherholt, Quinn Mathews, and Brycen Mautz are names to keep eyes on.

The Mariners have been seen as favorites to land Brendan Donovan, and it appears they are open to sending switch-pitcher Jurrangelo Cijntje to St. Louis to help facilitate a deal.

The St. Louis Cardinals have once again been connected to the Boston Red Sox, this time in a potential Brendan Donovan deal. The Red Sox are reportedly targeting Donovan to help with their infield need.

After 13 years in Major League Baseball, former St. Louis Cardinals reliever Joe Kelly has announced that he's no longer playing baseball.

The St. Louis Cardinals could receive a lot in a trade if they help Alex Bregman choose his next destination in free agency. This would happen by taking on salary, like Eduardo Rodriguez, and prospects from the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Since the St. Louis Cardinals aren't likely to contend in 2026 or 2027, Chaim Bloom should look to extend players to be leaders in the club's next competitive window, including JJ Wetherholt, Ivan Herrera, Brendan Donovan, Alec Burleson, and Masyn Winn.

The St. Louis Cardinals have been acquiring a ton of young pitching this offseason under Chaim Bloom, building their stable of young arms for the future and accumulating trade assets for their own deals in the coming years.

The St. Louis Cardinals have a future slugger in their farm system in Rainiel Rodriguez, and the teenage phenom just posted numbers that only top prospect in all of baseball, Kevin McGonigle, could match.

The St. Louis Cardinals all-quarter century team features legends like Albert Pujols, Yadier Molina, Jim Edmonds, Scott Rolen, Chris Carpenter, Adam Wainwright, Trevor Rosenthal, and recent greats like Paul Goldschmidt, Brendan Donovan, and Ryan Helsley.

The Athletics aren't known for spending, but they just signed their left fielder Tyler Soderstrom to a long-term extension, something the St. Louis Cardinals have been avoiding doing with their young core as of late. That needs to change.

Before Chaim Bloom even took over as the St. Louis Cardinals president of baseball operations, he has already overhauled their farm system, which was named the most improved system in all of baseball by Baseball America, along with Joshua Baez praise.

2026 should be a celebratory year for two World Series anniversaries in the 1926 and 2006 clubs. Instead, the St. Louis Cardinals rebuild will be the primary focus.
