John Mozeliak and Gary LaRocque were two of the most direct connections to the old "Cardinal Way". With their imminent departures, will this long-time methodology become extinct under Chaim Bloom?

The St. Louis Cardinals are a generous organization, and during Christmas season, the likes of Oliver Marmol, Adam Wainwright, Brendan Donovan, and Cardinals Care go out of their way to help those in need.
Josh Jacobs|
The Toronto Blue Jays and Arizona Diamondbacks have interest in Cardinal's closer Ryan Helsley. Both teams have interest in trading for the All-Star and Trevor Hoffman Reliever of the Year award recipient.
Brendan Strieker|
The St. Louis Cardinals just added four new field coordinators to their player development staff. The Blue Jays and Diamondbacks have shown interest in Ryan Helsley, and Nolan Arenado's trade market is heating up with recent moves in free agency.
Josh Jacobs|
The St. Louis Cardinals are slashing their payroll in 2025, but let's be honest, they'll never be spending with the big boys in Los Angeles or New York anyways. Maybe a salary cap and salary floor could benefit a team like the Cardinals long-term.
Cliff Williams|
For the St. Louis Cardinals to have success in 2025, they need to see improvement from Jordan Walker, Nolan Gorman, and Lars Nootbaar along with other young bats, as well as pitchers like Quinn Mathews, Tink Hence, Andre Pallante, and Michael McGreevy.
Josh Jacobs|
One of the St. Louis Cardinals' youngest prospects, Yairo Padilla, is already receiving comparisons to starts like Fernando Tatis Jr. and Elly De La Cruz.

A writer for Baseball America believes that St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Jordan Walker is more to blame for his own struggles than the Cardinals are.

The St. Louis Cardinals officially lost first baseman and future Hall of Famer Paul Goldschmidt to the Yankees today. His MVP season in 2022, playoff performance in 2019, and incredible games against the Brewers and Blue Jays go down as top 5 moments.
Josh Jacobs|
The New York Yankees have signed Paul Goldschmidt to a one-year deal, ending his time with the St. Louis Cardinals. This also may mean they end up trading for Nolan Arenado here soon.
Josh Jacobs|
After two seasons of up and down performance, the advanced stats show reasons for optimism for the former top prospect. Walker is above league average in multiple Statcast measurements and should continue to improve on his career numbers.
Scott Plaza|
As the Cardinals are preparing to move on from Nolan Arenado and Paul Goldschmidt, they are also preparing to move on from having any star players.
Mason Keith|
The St. Louis Cardinals are losing Paul Goldschmidt in free agency, and now we have suitors reported. JJ Wetheholt may be the next Alex Bregman according to Baseball America, and Steven Matz could be traded soon.
Josh Jacobs|
The St. Louis Cardinals may lose both Nolan Arenado and Paul Goldschmidt to the New York Yankees this offseason. The Yankees are looking to sign Goldschmidt here soon, and that could entice Arenado to approve a trade to the Bronx.
Josh Jacobs|
The St. Louis Cardinals have been behind the ball in player development as of plate, but as Chaim Bloom settles in with the organization, their standing in farm system rankings continues to rise.
Josh Jacobs|
The St. Louis Cardinals can no longer count on the Houston Astros as a trade destination for Nolan Arenado after they signed Christian Walker today. Paul Goldschmidt has now lost a potential suitor in free agency as well.

Some moments in life require hindsight to understand how special they are. But last night, I knew something was unfolding that I would never forget. There I was
Josh Jacobs|
St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado wants to venture to Los Angeles to conclude his career, but the Dodgers are showing little interest in him.
J.T. Buchheit|
The St. Louis Cardinals' unwillingness to take on some of Nolan Arenado's salary in a trade is a sign that the DeWitt family is wanting to slash payroll to a crazy new low in 2025.
