Newsbreakers

November 4, 2009

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch is reporting that the Cardinals have opened contract talks with outfielder Matt Holliday. The team reportedly opened discussions with a six-year, $98 million deal.

Our View:

These talks are just preliminary, but that doesn't appear to be nearly enough to lock Holliday up. Scott Boras has said he will use Mark Teixeira's eight-year, $180 million as a benchmark, so the Cards better get that offer increased if they want to keep the slugger.

October 18, 2009

Newsday reports that "somebody in the loop" with Matt Holliday says the slugging outfielder's top two choices in free agency are the New York Yankees and Mets.

Our View:

It's not surprising that a New York paper says Holliday's top two choices are both teams in New York, but they are definitely two of the only clubs that will be able to pay him if he is determined to pursue top dollar. Consider this the first of many Holliday hot stove updates.

October 8, 2009

Matt Holliday gave the Cardinals an early lead with a solo home run in the second inning off of Clayton Kershaw on Thursday, but made a devastating error in the ninth, dropping a James Loney fly-ball with two outs. The flub gave the Dodgers a runner at second base in a 2-1 game, and they made the Cardinals pay, plating two runs for a 3-2 win.

Our View:

It was an awful play made by a usually solid left-fielder. Few people in sports know what Holliday is going through right now, and hopefully for the Cardinals, the disappointment doesn't carry over to game three on Saturday.

September 29, 2009

According to the St. Louis Post Dispatch, Matt Holliday is in Tuesday's lineup against the Reds.

Our View:

Holliday has been suffering from a chest cold and missed Sunday's contest against the Rockies. He claims he could have played if it was vital to the team, but with the Cards already having clinched the division there was no reason to push him. After two days of rest he has a clean bill of health and will head back to the diamond in Cincinnati. Make sure to get him back in fantasy lineups.

September 28, 2009

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch is reporting that Cardinals' outfielder Matt Holliday was out of Sunday's game due to a chest cold. Holliday said that he could have played if they game had the game been of vital importance to the team.

Our View:

With the Cards clinching a playoff birth on Saturday, there was no reason for Holliday to push it on Sunday. He should return to the lineup this week as the Cards try to position themselves for home-field advantage in the playoffs.
