It might be a stretch to call the Cardinals "contenders," but it's hard to count them out in the weak NL Central. At the very least, they'll need to add two starting pitchers; Chris Carpenter won't be back until midseason, so their Opening Day rotation comprises Adam Wainwright, Joel Pineiro, Braden Looper and some question marks.
New GM John Mozeliak might be more willing to acknowledge second baseman Adam Kennedy (.219/.282/.290 in 2007) as a sunk cost, and it's a relatively easy spot to upgrade in this free-agent market.
