Caleb Ferguson

He threw 80 innings this year, 5.51 ERA, and the innings would've been valuable either way, but still not that good in Toronto.

Caleb Ferguson was a reliever that we didn't pick up.

He had a 5.18 ERA in just 33 innings.

He was hurt for a large portion of the year.

Cardinals haven't bought forever.

Technically, they traded for Caleb Ferguson, which I thought it was a fine move, whatever, like a true nothing burger.

But add a reliever at the deadline.

Add a real reliever because it doesn't cost you literally anything most of the time.

learn? Yeah, and also, like, some guys, like, I thought Matt Svante was going to be good this year, and he was super not, right? And so, like, at a certain level, like, there were adjustments that they had to sort of make.

But, like, you know, Peter Strzelecki was, like, a part of this team, right? Like, a lot of these dudes are just, like, Caleb Ferguson.

Like, there's a lot of these dudes that we are never going to remember were ever on this team.

That's just kind of what it was.

It should be noted, probably.

Cardinals did try a little bit of a Band-Aid, getting that Caleb Ferguson at the deadline, hoping for a bit of a veteran arm just to kind of cover some innings.

Sure.

That did not, you know, in the bullpen, that did not work out.

So they trade Nathaniel Lowe.

They trade Caleb Ferguson, which that move's actually worked out.

I don't really know about the Lowe one.

But the Tyler Stevenson hole conundrum where – he literally thinks he's being traded.

I mean, they were out of it, and they didn't even sell.

They traded Nate Lowe to the Guardians, and they traded Caleb Ferguson for international cap space, uh, to the, to the Cardinals.

That's it.

That's all they did.

They did nothing.

They traded Nathaniel Lowe, one expiring, probably the lowest of their expiring contracts, and traded Caleb Ferguson for international pool money.

They did nothing.

They did nothing to make this team better.

Pierce Johnson.

Caleb Ferguson's bagging groceries right now.

Pierce Johnson...

Something you can't get at Claire's.

15 ERA.

I know that.

Lower than Caleb Ferguson.

Yeah, and that's only because he got shelled on Friday.

And you definitely don't want to make this a whole situation because, oh, we can't get rid of him because he might be something.

Well, if you were doing that every time, you'd go insane because Caleb Ferguson you traded for and he was awful.

And Dennis Santana you claimed and you thought, oh, yeah, Dennis Santana

is going to be something.

And yeah, my apologies.

I was mixing WinQuest up with Caleb Ferguson, who's no longer on the team.

Because I think that that was the move, was those two flipping.

And I'm going to say this too, by the way.
