The St. Louis Cardinals were sellers at the trade deadline this year. They traded all four pitchers on expiring contracts, those being Ryan Helsley, Phil Maton, Steven Matz and Erick Fedde. The team seems to have finally picked a direction. Instead of trying to contend in the next few years, they have chosen to fully commit to a rebuild.

John Mozeliak has made what will likely end up being his final trade running the ship in St. Louis with the Cardinals.
