Daley flight reshapes NL Central race with McGwire move
Expos manager Felipe Alou cautioned Daley’s departure, noting he pitched well for a time but no longer. St. Louis traded TJ Mathews and Eric Ludwick to Oakland for Mark McGwire, aiming to boost the Cardinals over Houston. McGwire’s future value hinges on a strong late season push and a potential $10 million free agent bid. Cardinals face questions of depth and fit with the deal. Astros manager Larry Dierker called the Cardinals a stronger club after the trade.
