For the new Cardinal fans that joined the Planet since last year, here are some of the historical threads going back to 2006.

What do they plan to do with him?
Surely he ain’t gonna play.

They'll put him in their outfield so we can have an entire group of infielders playing out of position and poorly executing. [Reply]

OMG! Mo thinks he’s going to be a leader on the field?
"I think part of it is leadership by example," Mozeliak said about Carp's clubhouse appeal. "But I also think part of it is the ability to speak up when you see something. Last year, I think a lot of that was falling on Goldy and I just think that's pretty demanding." [Reply]
