As per my usual. My "Cardinals" team bowed out of the playoffs in the first round. I have made a roster change and am ready for my move to gold although I don't think my pitching will hold up.

Here is my lineup

1 S Ozzie Smith SS
2 L Stan Musial CF - The Gold version without the power stat.
3 R Albert Pujols 3B - Rookie 3B version
4 L Johnny Mize 1B
5 R Matt Holliday DH
6 L Enos Slaughter LF
7 R Joe Medwick RF
8 S Tom Herr 2B
9 R Yadier Molina C

Here are the starters
R Chris Carpenter
L Ernie White
R Miles Mikolas
R Adam Wainwright
R Carlos Martinez

And My Relievers
Middle Relief R John Brebbia
Middle Relief R Luke Gregerson
Middle Relief R Dominic Leone
Middle Relief R Michael Wacha
Setup R Bruce Sutter
Setup R Jim Palmer
Closer R Lee Smith

I need to upgrade my pitchers, especially my relievers but decent ones are really hard to come by on the market.

For Cardinal Pitchers this is what I see on the market
Dizzy Dean (2 versions) - Too Expensive currently
Bob Gibson (1969 All Star) - Too Expensive currently

Mark Littell - Scary low movement and control for a gold pitcher closer. He scares me

Rick Ankiel - Scary low movement and control. He scares me

Jack Flaherty - Future Legend - Average. Not better than what I have but I do need to transition away from Jim Palmer in the Bullpen since he is my last non Cardinal. Not sure Flaherty is the one to do that

The rest are all 2018 versions of the Cardinals relievers and they are all commons.

So, not a lot of choices right now to build a better pitching staff.
