Today the St. Louis Cardinals signed OF Juan Gonzalez to a minor league contract. Yes, that Juan Gonzalez. Even with it being just a minor league contract, I'm glad the rumors about my Yankees making a deal with him aren't true. Gonzalez is going to be given a chance at the last outfield spot for the Cardinals competing with Ryan Ludwick. Ludwick did bat .267 last season in 303 at bats. Gonzalez last effective season was 5 years ago, and that was only half a season!
So I'd say Gonzalez is cut 2 to 3 weeks into spring training, and Ludwick keeps his job.
