Bernie Miklasz breaks down how a wave of St. Louis Cardinals surgeries could reshape the winter. Lars Nootbaar had procedures to address Haglund's deformities on both heels, Brendan Donovan underwent sports-hernia repair, Iván Herrera had a minor elbow clean-up, and Masyn Winn had late-season knee work. Bernie explains how these timelines and histories may affect trade value, why Donovan’s 2025 injury management set off alarm bells, and what Chaim Bloom must do now to protect assets and rebalance the lineup. Plus: a frank look at Oli Marmol’s role when players try to push through injuries, and why leadership needs to say “no” sooner.
