Prospectus Hit List: Roy Halladay To Matt Holliday

9. Cardinals (Falling)

Dealing Cards: Playing through pain with a wrist that needs surgery, Mark DeRosa provides a silver lining to the storm cloud of a sweep by the Astros via a 5-for-11, three-homer performance. With their NL Central lead dwindling, the Redbirds are hardly sitting on their hands. As this goes live, they're pulling off a centered around Matt Holliday for top prospect Brett Wallace, while the ink is barely dry on their swap of underperforming 37th outfielder Chris Duncan for unloved Julio Lugo and cash.
