From the Cardinals for PTBNL or cash.

He will report to the ML club immediately, Brian Bixler DFA'd.

Don't expect much. Don't expect much at all.

Apparently this move is being celebrated on the Cards board.

He sounds like another Jordan Schafer.

Cant be worse then Downs or Bixler right?? Hopefully he can get consistent playing time at 3B and maybe show us something.

Pretty much.

This is a head-scratcher. Acquire a bench-utility infielder and move Paredes to OF? Im sure they think of Paredes as a starter and not a bench guy, but still a strange move. So, who gets moved out? Downs? Moore? I am guessing Downs since he wasnt a Lunow hire.

Bixler was DFA'd. I was kinda expecting Downs, he has contributed squat this year.

Bixler wasnt on 25-man roster. He was DFA'd to make room for Greene on the 40-man, but someone on the big league club will now have to be moved for Greene to be added.

Cardinal fans are without a doubt the worst.

that's not nice

Tyler Greene was mentioned on being a fantasy sleeper this year. He has power and speed. However, to date, he has been a disappointment, split time player. Barring the PTBNL is no one of medium are above potential, I like the move.

I hope it ends up just cash. At this point he doesn't seem worthy of a medium prospect.

I would say that dishonor is usually given to fans of the Phillies, Cubs and Yankees

That would be the best scenario.

Why, as your first post ever, would you say that?

I believe Downs has an option left so Bixler off the 40 man roster and Downs to AAA. But yeah this is a <wtf move to me.

"Bixler wasnt on 25-man roster. He was DFA'd to make room for Greene on the 40-man, but someone on the big league club will now have to be moved for Greene to be added. "

Right you are, i'm hoping it's Downs.

Nah, ever check out the Blue Jays board? They still have Cardinal fans trolling over their and bashing Colby. It's ridiculous. If Greene has any success with Houston, chances are they will start flooding this board as well.
