Well it looks like the Cardinals are not done trading yet. It was reported earlier that they are still going after Heath Bell, but it appears the Rangers are closing in on the Heath Bell sweep stakes. Since Ryan Theriot is slumping and happens to have the worse defensive numbers in major league baseball, the Cards are talking to the Dodgers about Rafeal Furcal. According to Joe Strauss, the Cardinals are pursing a short stop that's a difference maker. He also reports it is more than likely a trade will be done by deadline. What kind of short stop difference makers are out there? Jose Reyes? I thought Jose was untouchable. Hanley Ramirez? I thought he was the Marlins leader and a franchise player. I would love to have Ramirez but I think the Cards will go after Furcal not unless they will try for a bigger difference maker.
