People are melting down over a tiny Cardinals trade, Bernie thinks that’s the whole point. If you still don’t understand what a real rebuild looks like, this move is your case study. Bernie breaks down why Chaim Bloom traded Andre Granillo for George Soriano, why relievers are the most replaceable asset in baseball, and why the Cardinals believe Soriano has a higher ceiling even with the ugly MLB results so far. He digs into Stuff+, Statcast-style luck indicators, pitch mix fit, and how the new pitching brain trust, including Rob Cerfolio and Matt Pierpont, could reshape Soriano’s arsenal, maybe even adding a cutter. Plus, why this kind of “lottery ticket” thinking is exactly what a rebuilding team should be doing in 2026.
