Angels/Cardinals Trade

[Angels GM (Chase)]

Angels Trade
----------------------------------
3B Kaleb Cowart

Cardinals Trade
----------------------------------
RP Kevin Siegrist

Angels trade an Angels prospect that was highly touted, but one who has been struggling mightily this year. Because our team has recently stocked up on 3B prospects in Moran, Franco, Asche, as well as a few others, we don't feel we have to wait on Cowart and a solid Cardinals RP prospect who is already on the 40 man fits better.

Angels gain $400,000 in salary

Siegrist to active 25 man roster

[Cardinals GM (Jeff - Commish)]

Cowart to the minors

I accept, I do this deal because I feel Seigrest wasn't needed right now with the stacked bullpen I have. Cowart is struggling mightly, but I still believe those first round tools he once had are still there and hopefully he will rebound. I give up a solid reliever, but I feel I am willing to do that because of the reward I could get from Cowart eventually,
