Cardinals momentum carries into the offseason as Bloom weighs a roster reboot. Donovan, the club’s lone All-Star, could be a trade focal point that funds a higher upside rebuild rather than a quick fix.

Donovan has a 750 OPS with 9 home runs in 110 games; with arbitration around 3 million, his value to suitors is solid. Moving him could net a mid-rotation arm or a quality prospect, helping STL balance immediate competitiveness with future upside.
