Dakota Hudson Appears To Nail Down Starting Job; Brett Cecil Has Nerve Issue; Randy Arozarena Breaks Hand

And he seemed to agree with that assessment.

Cardinals Confident In Postseason Return In 2018

At no point since the turn of the century have three straight postseasons been played without trips to St. Louis. The Cardinals have sat out the past two, after last year's playoff hopes were dashed -- by the rival Cubs -- with three games to go in the 2017 season.

Do not hit the panic button or look for a red flag. Carlos Martinez is fine. So is Adam Wainwright. It’s just the St. Louis Cardinals are making some adjustments to their rotation due to the scheduling of the Grapefruit League and regular season–which has them facing the New York Mets five times in the next 12 days.
